Tired of Sleep Apnea? Our Dental Experts Can Help
Are you losing out on quality restful sleep due to snoring? Has apnea left you feeling half-awake and unable to concentrate through the day? Proper sleep quality is important, and luckily, if you’re suffering from sleep apnea, there are devices that can help you maintain clear airways and improve your sleep quality.
What is Sleep Apnea?
Whilst many people just think of sleep apnea and the snoring that comes with it as an inevitable part of their lives, it can have quite a serious impact on health and quality of life. It is a condition in which a person’s breathing is inconsistent during sleep, and can come with a number of symptoms, from snoring to episodes of throat closure during rest. As you can imagine, this not only lowers sleep quality, but can also be quite scary for those that experience it, and quite alarming for loved ones.
Understanding Sleep Apnea & Snoring Devices
A customised snoring mouthpiece device (also known as a splint or dental appliance) is a conservative approach to treating snoring and sleep apnea by wearing it while sleeping. Splint helps hold your lower jaw and tongue slightly forward while you sleep, this reduces snoring by keeping your airway unobstructed, acting as a snoring cure and can even aid in mild cases of sleep apnea.
If you’re dealing with dental grinding or jaw clenching, we also offer customised Bruxism Splints to ensure that your dental health is protected while you sleep. To learn more about our devices for sleep apnea and dental grinding, call us today to book an appointment.
