SNORING
Snoring alone can disturb a peaceful sleep not only for the one who snores but also for their bed partner, family, friends, or anyone in earshot distance! Many people think of it as a social embarrassment, but snoring is a medical condition that can be linked to a sleep deficit causing daytime drowsiness, irritability, lack of focus, and decreased libido. Loud snoring has been associated with increased heart attacks and strokes and may be a sign of something more serious.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
(OSA)
OSA is characterized by episodes of a complete or partial airway collapse with an associated decrease in oxygen saturation or arousal from sleep sometimes up to a hundred times per hour. If you experience or are made aware this may be happening, please bring it to the attention of your physician.
Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS)
UARS are events of intermittent airway collapse during sleep causing an increase in breathing effort which results
in brief awakenings from sleep. These awakenings or arousals are often undetected by the affected individual, but can result in fragmented sleep and restricted nasal airflow which may lead to increased mouth breathing.
Treatment Options for Sleep Disordered Breathing?
CPAP - A machine creates forced air that is directed through a hose and mask into your airway.
Oral Appliance Therapy - Digital scans are taken of your upper and lower teeth, along with a bite position identified by a qualified Dental Sleep Medicine Dentist to create two precision appliances, one for your upper teeth and the other for your lower teeth. Together they can reposition and stabilize your lower jaw during sleep to maintain an open unobstructed airway. Resolve sleep-disordered breathing comfortably and confidently without the use of hoses, masks, or surgery.
Surgery - Various surgical procedures are possible and can be discussed with your physician to learn about rates of success and side effects.
Lifestyle Modifications - Losing weight, exercise, limiting consumption of alcohol, stopping smoking, avoid certain medications under the direction of your physician
Adjunctive Therapy - can include sleep position aids, nasal breathing aids, nasal sprays, nasal lavage
