Are you constantly tired? Does your family complain about your snoring? Do you have trouble focusing during the day? You may have a serious health condition called Sleep Apnea.
Sleep Apnea prevents restful sleep and can lead to other health problems. Roughly one in six Americans have sleep-related breathing issues.
For patients who suspect they have sleep apnea, we offer home sleep testing. We can send you home with a device that monitors your breathing and other vital signs while you sleep. When you bring it back, we will download all the data for analysis. Once a physician has determined you have a sleep disorder, we can discuss your treatment options.
Options for sleep apnea treatment include:
At Conover Family Dental, we provide custom oral appliances to effectively treat sleep apnea and snoring.
Research shows that patients are much more accepting of oral appliance therapy than CPAP. If you have mild or moderate sleep apnea and struggle with your CPAP device, an oral appliance can make it easier for you to successfully treat your condition.
Good quality sleep will improve your oral and overall health, give you more energy during the day, and boost your mood. It can also help with some chronic pain conditions and eliminate fatigue. Additionally, your risk for serious health problems decreases when you get quality sleep every night. In short, treating your sleep apnea will change your life!
