He has built his private practice in the Longwood Sweetwater and Wekiva areas; using his expertise on fine people such as yourself.
Dr. O. is a member of the Forest Lake Seventh-day Adventist Church and married his wife, Cindy, in that same church way back in 1981. Cindy works faithfully as his office manager. Look for her beautiful smile on your next visit! Their two children are fully grown: Adam is employed by NBC and working for the Golf Channel in Orlando and Erin works for the Albin Polasek museum in Winter Park.
When not creating perfect smiles, Dr. O. enjoys fishing, playing golf, riding his motorcycle, or boating with his family. His favorite charities are the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and his home church, Forest Lake SDA Church where he frequently volunteers.

Dr. Offenback is trained to help treat and manage your snoring and/or sleep apnea. He is a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine; an association of dentists who help patients control Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and to stop snoring. Many patients, who have been previously diagnosed with this disease, may already own a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine. This is the gold standard of sleep apnea treatment for patients who have severe OSA. The problem is, long term patient compliance to sleep apnea treatment is very limited. Since the CPAP is so bulky, most patients dont like it and find it burdensome to use outside their home if they are travelling.
Dr. Offenback helps patients control OSA and snoring through the use of oral appliance therapy (OAT). This treatment is ideal for those with mild to moderate OSA. If you have trouble tolerating your CPAP, and you still need an effective alternative for living with sleep apnea, or if you need a quiet nights rest due to your partner snoring, talk to Dr. Offenback about an oral appliance therapy device..
Home Sleep Tests and/or Hospital-based Sleep Centers are available to help diagnose the severity of your OSA. A simple screening questionnaire will help determine your needs. So many people go undiagnosed, even Dr. Offenback was surprised at his high numbers! Thats why he is screening patients for this often ignored disease.
