CPAP is by far the best option for very nearly everyone with obstructive sleep apnea (for now).
Unless you have a very specific, isolated problem (such as huge tonsils or a fucked up jaw), surgery is rarely a good option. Results are hit or miss, recovery is unpleasant, and the scar tissue created can result in more obstructions years down the line.
None of the current implants are as good as cpap and few peole qualify for them.
Mouth guards can work, but many don't tolerate them well and they can lead to TMJ issues.
Etc.
