Looking for a Sleep Apnea Dentist on the Upper West Side?

By Dr. Boris Zusin · Published July 31, 2026

If you live or work on the Upper West Side and have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea, there's a good chance your search for treatment led you toward Midtown or the Upper East Side — that's where most of Manhattan's dedicated sleep-medicine dental practices are clustered. You don't have to leave the neighborhood for qualified, board-certified care.

A Rare Credential, Right on West End Avenue

Dr. Boris Zusin is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine (ABDSM) — a credential relatively few dentists in Manhattan hold, and one that's genuinely hard to find on the Upper West Side specifically. Diplomate status requires demonstrated, board-reviewed expertise in evaluating candidacy for, fabricating, and managing oral appliance therapy — well beyond what's covered in general dental training.

Convenient for the Neighborhood

Zusin Dental is located at 185 West End Ave, Suite 1G, New York, NY 10023, easily reachable for patients throughout the Upper West Side, Lincoln Square, Lincoln Center, and the Riverside Drive corridor — no need to travel across the park or down to Midtown for a sleep apnea consultation, appliance fitting, or follow-up adjustment visit.

What We Offer

We provide custom oral appliance therapy using the Panthera appliance — a digitally designed, 3D-printed mandibular advancement device known for its thin, precise fit and durability. It's offered as a comfortable, quiet alternative (or complement) to CPAP for patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea, along with treatment for habitual snoring.

What to Bring to Your First Visit

If you already have a sleep study confirming an obstructive sleep apnea diagnosis, bring your results — this lets us evaluate your candidacy for oral appliance therapy right away. If you haven't been formally diagnosed yet but suspect sleep apnea based on symptoms like loud snoring, witnessed breathing pauses, or persistent daytime fatigue, we can talk through next steps, including coordinating a referral for a sleep study.

Who We See

We treat patients from throughout the Upper West Side and greater Manhattan — from Lincoln Square and Lincoln Towers to Riverside Drive and beyond — who want an alternative to CPAP or a local, board-certified provider for oral appliance therapy without a trip across town.

If you're ready to explore whether oral appliance therapy is right for you, schedule a consultation at our West End Avenue office — no cross-town trip required.
