“My sleep has improved, less sleep disturbances, deeper sleep, dreams increased, decreased congestion (lung) during the night. I haven’t woken from sleep apnea. Decreased waking from snoring and gasping for breath, decreased mouth breathing. I would recommend Vivos® for the greater quality of life.“
“I can sleep consistently 8 + hours a day with zero need to get up to urinate, less daytime tiredness, lowered blood pressure to normal, decreased thyroid prescription strength.“
Millions of Americans suffer from some form of sleep-disordered breathing that disrupts our sleep patterns and affects the quality of our life in many ways.
Snoring, mouth breathing and teeth grinding are a few signs of distressed sympathetic fight or flight breathing. Breathing should be with our nose; quiet, deep, parasympathetic breathing which functions to allow our body to digest, rest and repair. At Ecologic Dentistry, we focus on AIRWAY CENTERED DENTISTRY.
Dental protocols and tools
The FDA cleared Vivos mmRNA, mRNA and DNA oral appliances (Daytime Nighttime Appliance) are worn in the mouth similar to a night guard or orthodontic retainer.
Using biomimetic (mimics the body’s normal growth patterns) technology, these oral appliances may – reduce symptoms of snoring and mild to moderate sleep apnea and sleep disordered breathing in adults and aid in jaw development and align teeth. The protocol is to wear the appliance mostly during sleep, for 10-16 hours per day for 12-18 months.
How Do the Vivos mmRNA, mRNA and DNA Appliances Work?
The Vivos mmRNA, mRNA and DNA appliances uses biomimetic transduction or signaling to stimulate the jaw and airway to gently develop to its natural genetic potential; optimizing teeth positioning, jaw positioning and spaces in the mouth, nasal passageway and jaw joint. As the upper jaw develops, the lower jaw enlarges and moves downward and forward into a more natural and optimal position. As the lower jaw develops, this allows the tongue the room it needs to serve as a natural palatal expander and retainer for the dental arches. It allows the tongue the freedom and movement needed for proper mastication (chewing) and swallowing.

• GROW • BREATHE • SLEEP • THRIVE •
- Straighter Teeth – As your jaw expands according to its genetic design, crowded teeth “unravel” and have more space available to come into alignment onto fully developed dental arches.
- Breathe – A healthier airway allows for healthy parasympathetic nose breathing during sleep.
- Sleep – Healthy breathing means getting a full, uninterrupted night of SLEEP.
- Thrive! – When we get a good night’s sleep, we THRIVE and enjoy the life we were meant to live!
“I have experienced improved sleep, I wake up more alert and energetic and my sinuses are better. I would recommend Vivos® because of the improvement in sleep and it is life changing.”

“My son started Vivos at 3 years old. Within 10 days he started wearing the appliance throughout the night. He surprised me because he is happy to wear it! After 2 weeks, I noticed his night time pull-ups started to become dry. Before Vivos, he was soaking through a pull-up and getting his bed wet on a weekly basis. Also, 1 month after starting Vivos, my son hasn’t needed a nap during the afternoon. Now that he is sleeping better at night, he is happier throughout the day. I am so thankful for Dr Yamashiro getting him the help he needs to guide his growth and get the sleep he needs to be healthy and happy!“
