Testimonials

I had no idea how tired I was until I began using my apnea mouth piece. Dr. Schleicher is incredibly knowledgeable, his staff are polite, helpful, and knowledgeable as well, and they have helped my optimize my mouth piece setting so I am now comfortably getting a restful and healthy night’s sleep. This has been a game changer for me, and for my wife as she says I no longer snore as well. Highly recommended.

Dr. Schleicher and Natalie of Sleep Houston offer a truly unique approach to OSA! Thanks to their Oral Appliance Therapy, I now awake feeling refreshed and headache-free, day after day. Before OAT, I struggled with a long list of issues such as memory problems, tachycardia, exhaustion, fatigue, and I had not had a dream in well over a decade. Guess what? I dream now!! When I walk into a room, I know why I'm there! And my heart stays calm while I sleep! Woohoo! I am so grateful for my oral appliance! Believe in the process! I repeat, believe in the process! Follow all directions and do not give up. It will be worth it in the end. I will never stop using this appliance, and will always be grateful to Dr. Schleicher, Natalie, and the entire Sleep Houston team!

Approximately 2 years ago, I went to Dr. Schleicher to get my teeth cleaned. He suspected sleep apnea from looking at my airway in my throat. At the time, I had never even heard of sleep apnea, nor was I interested in knowing about it. However, I thoroughly trusted Dr. Schleicher. When he asked if I were willing to do a sleep study, I immediately agreed to do so. Was I ever shocked when I heard from the pulmonary sleep specialist that I had ACUTE sleep apnea! He indicated that I was most definitely a candidate for CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) therapy. I am so grateful to Dr. Schleicher for his knowledge of sleep apnea, and I wholeheartedly recommend him as an expert in this field of study. I would also like everyone to know that as a 76-year-old female, I have more energy, do not get tired during the day, wake up less during the night (which is definitely a "plus"), and feel like I've gotten a new "lease on life!" I am forever grateful to Dr. Schleicher. (Mrs. Lestell Anne Villanueva, Richmond, Texas)

Dr. Schleicher fixed my TMJ and I was very impressed that he called me personally to check on me. I highly recommend Dr Schleicher. His staff was awesome.

My experience with Dr. Schleicher has been the best! Him and his staff have great customer service and are very knowledgeable. They take their time to resolve patient matters. I came in for TMJ treatment, which has resulted in no more headaches, neck pains, muscle aches, nor jaw pain. I’m blessed to have finally found a wonderful specialist!

I highly recommend Dr. Hans Schleicher for TMJ help. I was reluctant but am so pleased. I could only open my mouth 25mm and now I can open 44mm. In lay terms I could only put 2 fingers in my mouth opening and now I can do 3 easily. My mouth not opening made eating a challenge and painful on hard or tough things like bagels. This took only 9 months for me. I found this process worth it. I still need to wear the appliance every night and I will. Again, I had the best experience!!

I am so thankful to have found Dr. Hans Schleicher. He has listened to my concerns for my tmjd, and in the past 8 months he has gone above and beyond to heal me. My pain is gone and my treatment is closer to the end. I wish we had more doctors with personality, care, concern, and the brains that he has.

For the past two months or so, I have been suffering with fever, chills, fatigue, and a type of jaw lock. I began slowly having trouble opening my jaw. So I went to my GP to see if I had an infection. This was the beginning of many long laborious days of taking antibiotics and steroids. One day I would feel great, but then the malaise started up again. More blood tests, shots, antibiotics, and steroids. Nothing seemed to work. My GP finally said that he was baffled and didn’t know what to do, and if symptoms persisted go to the ER. Last Thursday morning, the same symptoms returned with a vengeance; plus I couldn’t open my mouth. I was beside myself, and went to the ER. Had all types of tests; but to no avail of what could be the problem. I was sent home from ER with more meds that relieved the pain about 3 hours. I had a rough time trying to sleep that night. The ER doctor thought it was a migraine. I stayed home on Friday to rest and see if my symptoms would go away. I woke up that morning, and my jaws were “locked” and the headache began again from my temples to my jaws and the back of my head was also throbbing with pain. I couldn’t bend down to put my house shoes on because my head felt like I was caring around a 20+ bowling ball. I managed to call my dentist, and the receptionist gave me a number for a specialist, but his office was closed. I did a few more searches while the pain was getting worse. Then I found Dr. Hans Schleicher name and office. I called and Cyndi answered. As I was explaining, I started crying because the pain was so unbearable. Dr. Schleicher called me immediately on his cell phone. He was so compassionate and kind. He told me that Cyndi, his receptionist/office manager, I think, would begin the preparations for my visit. Cyndi told me that my appointment would be at 1:00 p.m., and that she would send required paperwork. Dr Schleicher called me again to make sure I knew the address and if I had arrived at his office. Before Dr. Schleicher walked in to greet me, he was compassionate, kinds, and that’s when I knew he was going to guide my journey to healing. Dr. Schleicher’s knowledge and guidance gave me confidence that I was with the right doctor! I loved the way Dr. Schleicher explained step by step, the new mouth appliance, and the Red Unit was a part of my plan. After using the Red Unit, I could open my mouth for the first time in a long time. I highly recommend Dr. Schleicher to everyone! He is a genius! Don’t wait until you get as sick as I was; get help right now. Call Dr. Hans Schleicher for an appointment and the right care!

Ive been able to breathe again , and sleep better. Thank you so much very nice , and professional.

If you are searching for help with TMJ then you know how miserably painful and consuming it can be. I was desperately looking for help when I was fortunate, very fortunate, to find Dr. Hans Schleicher back in 2012. My pain was so bad I was spending my days at work with my jaw cradled in my hand. I don’t think I even realized I was doing it half the time! I was having such a hard time finding someone who was knowledgeable about TMJ in the Houston area. I researched several dentists and made an appointment to see Dr. Schleicher. And that was it! He made an appliance that took very few adjustments, and I have worn it since. My jaw healed, I have had no further issues. I hate to think what shape I might be in if I had not made that appointment! I am also a tough grinder, and had previous experiences with more than a few night guards, so I had no problem committing to wearing the appliance. It was a Godsend, and I personally think Dr. Schleicher is too! As an additional benefit, he has the most professional and competent support staff of any practice I have been to. If you are having TMJ issues, I highly recommend you research Dr. Schleicher. He is quite simply excellent at what he does.
