Although Dr Pearson has closed this practice, I wanted to thank all of our patients for being so awesome! I have been with Dr. Pearson since 2018 until I moved down south in 2022. Dr Pearson is an amazing dentist and person. We loved watching our tiny patients grow up with our practice. I miss every single one of you and thank you all for being so awesome! Love you Dr. Pearson!

I am dentist and I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. My sleep medicine doctor suggested that I have a colleague make a dental appliance. I know many dentists. For me, Dr. Pearson was the obvious choice. Dr. Mel has decades of experience as an orthodontist and has expanded his practice and his education to treat sleep apnea patients. My consultation appointment was very thorough. Accurate impressions were made and a well-fitting comfortable appliance was delivered to me at a second appointment. My snoring is gone, my nighttime breathing has improved. Thank you doctor Mel !

Hi, my name is Evelyn Cuevas and I wanted to provide a follow-up regarding my new Sleep Apnea mouthpiece. Dr. Mel Pearson had it custom made for me with an imprint of my teeth. Simple and no pain at all. I have had this appliance for 6 months now. I must say that I have been having a more silent and better sleeping experience ever since. My husband is just as happy with it as I am because now he seldom hears me snore and he is able to sleep better too. It is comfortable to use every night, simple to sanitize and easy to take in my cosmetic bag when I go on vacations. I truly recommend this mouthpiece to any person who has issues with other mechanical breathing Sleep Apnea devices. Thank you Dr. Pearson and Helen.

What to expect at a sleep study appointment
For an in-lab study, you arrive in the evening and sleep in a private room while sensors record breathing, oxygen, heart rhythm and body movement. For a home sleep test, the clinic gives you a portable kit you use in your own bed. Neither test is painful. Results are usually compiled into a physician report within one to two weeks, and the clinic then discusses whether treatment — such as CPAP therapy or an oral appliance — is needed.
Preparation basics: avoid caffeine in the afternoon, skip lotions and hair products, bring comfortable sleepwear, and take your regular medications unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Frequently asked questions about Staten Island Dental Sleep Health
What does Staten Island Dental Sleep Health do?
Staten Island Dental Sleep Health is a sleep medicine clinic in Staten Island, NY that evaluates and treats sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea, chronic insomnia, restless legs syndrome and narcolepsy. Evaluation usually involves a sleep study, and treatment may include CPAP therapy, an oral appliance, or behavioral therapy depending on the diagnosis.
Do I need a referral to book a sleep study at Staten Island Dental Sleep Health?
Many insurance plans require a referral or prior authorization before covering a sleep study. Requirements vary by insurer and by clinic, so contact Staten Island Dental Sleep Health directly using the phone number on this page and ask what your plan needs.
How much does a sleep study cost at Staten Island Dental Sleep Health?
Sleep study costs vary widely with the type of test, your insurance plan and your deductible. Home sleep tests generally cost less than in-lab studies. Ask the clinic for an itemized estimate and check with your insurer about in-network rates before booking.
Does insurance cover sleep studies and CPAP treatment?
Most US insurers, including Medicare, cover sleep studies and CPAP therapy when they are medically necessary and properly documented. Coverage details — deductibles, co-pays and supply replacement schedules — differ by plan, so verify with your insurer and the clinic.
How long does it take to get sleep study results?
Typically one to two weeks. A sleep physician reviews the recorded data and writes a report, after which the clinic discusses the findings and any recommended treatment with you.
Can I do the sleep study at home?
Possibly. Home sleep apnea tests suit many adults with a high likelihood of obstructive sleep apnea and no major heart or lung conditions. If your symptoms are complex or the home test is negative despite strong symptoms, an in-lab study is usually the next step. The clinic can determine which option fits you.
What should I bring to my appointment at Staten Island Dental Sleep Health?
Comfortable sleepwear, your photo ID and insurance card, a list of current medications, and your own pillow if that helps you sleep. Avoid caffeine after midday and skip lotions or hair products, because sensors attach better to clean skin.
