From the discussion with my doctor and dentist, I ended having both the cpap for home usage and the dental appliance, made by the dentist, for when I'm sleeping elsewhere. In my case (just above mild apnea), sleep is incredibly better with the cpap, and mildly better with the dental appliance,so the second one is good for temporary measures. And I resent forgetting it when it happens, as a week of poor sleep really affects my behavior.
