Sleep apnea is more than just loud snoring, it's a serious medical condition that can affect your overall health and quality of life. Left untreated, it can lead to chronic fatigue, high blood pressure, and even heart problems. At our dental office, we specialize in non-invasive, custom solutions to help you breathe freely and enjoy restful, restorative sleep.
What Is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea occurs when your airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing repeated pauses in breathing. This interruption can happen dozens or even hundreds of times per night, leading to poor sleep quality and potential health complications.
Common symptoms of sleep apnea include:
- Loud, persistent snoring.
- Waking up gasping or choking.
- Daytime fatigue, even after a full night’s rest.
- Difficulty concentrating or memory issues.
- Morning headaches or dry mouth.
