Is snoring interrupting your sleep or disturbing others? Not only can snoring be disruptive, but it can also be dangerous and lead to more serious health complications.
Thankfully, The Art of Dentistry & Spa offers treatment to help alleviate snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea and get you a better night’s sleep. Read on to learn more!
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a disorder that occurs when the airway completely collapses while sleeping, blocking airflow into the lungs. These instances of sleep apnea can occur 50 or more times every hour, and they typically wake you up throughout the night, preventing a full, restful sleep.
If left untreated, sleep apnea can cause bigger complications such as hypertension, stroke, and heart disease.
Typical symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea include:
- Snoring
- Daytime drowsiness
- Suddenly waking from sleep while gasping
- Headaches
To minimize symptoms and get more oxygen when you sleep without a CPAP mask, we proudly offer SomnoMed.
SomnoMed
SomnoMed personalized oral appliances work by carefully moving the tongue and jaw in a forward position to help keep your airway open and prevent snoring and sleep apnea.
SomnoMed appliances are FDA-approved and use a proprietary b-flex comfort liner for a comfortable fit. It is designed to be an effective and durable alternative to CPAP therapy.
