Are You Affected By a Sleep Disorder?
Experiencing a restless night every once in a while may be a universal experience, but feeling exhausted after eight hours of sleep most nights can be an indicator that something is awry. If you feel fatigued throughout your day and frequently snore at night, there is a chance that sleep apnea may be affecting your quality of life. Fortunately, you may only be a custom oral appliance away from reclaiming comfortable and restful sleep.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that causes a person’s breathing to repeatedly stop throughout the night. The most common form, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), occurs when the airway closes, collapses, or becomes blocked during sleep, typically as the result of relaxed throat muscles. When this happens, a person is unable to get enough oxygen in their lungs and to the brain, causing them to gasp for breath. This cycle repeats throughout the unconscious state, resulting in a restless night of sleep.
Due to the primary symptoms occurring while a person is unconscious, it can initially be difficult to detect sleep apnea. Other symptoms can include dry mouth or sore throat in the morning, daytime sleepiness, trouble concentrating and more. When you meet with our team, we will work with you to determine the best treatment option for your needs, including the use of a custom oral appliance.
