Protect Your Health and Improve Your Quality of Life

Why Do I Need Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

Ignoring sleep apnea can have serious consequences beyond feeling tired. Untreated OSA increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and even accidents due to daytime drowsiness. It can also negatively impact your mood, memory, and relationships.

By seeking timely treatment, you not only improve your sleep but also protect your long-term health. Custom oral appliances from a dental expert offer a non-invasive alternative to CPAP machines, helping you breathe easily and rest more soundly every night.

Why Redondo Beach Patients Trust Ahn Dental Specialists

After trying many dentists around Los Angeles, I'm so glad to have found Dr. Ahn's office. Her and her staff are awesome! Everyone in the office is always really happy and upbeat. The cleanings are very thorough and they make sure you feel comfortable throughout. Jill always does an awesome job cleaning my teeth and explaining the best ways for me to brush and floss at home. Highly recommend!
Tess Watson
My kids have been seeing Dr Ahn for almost two years now. Not only she gives them the best dental care, she is also very patient and understanding. When my 10 year old was feeling nervous, Dr Ahn and her staff gave her enough time and kindly explained about the treatment. Highly recommended!
Yuni Kim
Great office all around - nice staff, flexible scheduling, very gentle hygienists, and Dr Ahn is so nice and caring. I just had an emergency filling done on New Year’s Eve and she took her time and I didn’t feel a thing. The best dentist I’ve ever had!
Steve Goldberg
We have been going to Dr Ahn dental for the last couple years. Her staff is always so welcoming and nice. They are great if you have little ones who might be afraid of going to the dentist. My girl also appreciates the prize bin at the end of the cleaning! I would highly recommend.
Andy Chen
Amazing doctor! I needed an implant in the front and Dr Ahn restored it in such an amazingly natural way that you can’t tell which tooth is “fake” - I’ve been self conscious about it for a while. I’m smiling more and I love it! Thanks!
