If you suffer from sleep apnea in Visalia, you may wake up still tired, feel groggy during your workday, suffer from general fatigue, and snore loudly. All these things are symptoms of sleep apnea. If this sounds like you or your bed partner, Sequoia Dental Office has the relief you’ve been looking for. Our sleep apnea treatment with a custom oral appliance will help you:
Don’t go another night without contacting our office for help. Call us today at 559-608-3533 for a complimentary consultation or second opinion to see if a simple sleep apnea appliance is right for you.
You could have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and not be aware of it. Chances are, however, that your bed partner is aware since snoring is one of the key symptoms of OSA.
Here’s how sleep apnea happens:
Our custom-fitted oral appliance will put an end to this cycle. All you have to do is pop it into your mouth when you go to bed. It will gently move your lower jaw forward to help keep those soft tissues away from your airway.
The result is freer, easier breathing and a better night of rest. Since snoring is caused by air moving over those tissues, you’ll also snore less – or not at all. Your bed partner will thank you for that!
Treating symptoms of sleep apnea now can not only help you feel better, it can also improve your overall health and life expectancy. OSA has been linked to several serious health concerns such as high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression.
Do yourself and your loved ones a favor by getting help for your Visalia sleep apnea ASAP. Visit us for a complimentary consultation by calling 559-608-3533 today. You can also schedule an appointment online. Remember to schedule your next regular checkup as well.
Symptoms of sleep apnea may lessen if you lose weight or change your sleep position. However, it won’t go away without treatment. The key to sleep apnea treatment is keeping your airway open during sleep. We can fit you for a custom-made oral appliance that moves your jaw into a position that consistently keeps your airway clear.
Daytime fatigue is a common symptom of sleep apnea. When you feel overly tired during the day, you won’t feel like exercising. Plus, many of us reach for treats with sugar and/or caffeine when we feel tired. In addition, hormones that help control your appetite are regulated while you sleep. If your sleep is frequently disrupted, as it is with apnea, the hormones may not do their job.
Sleep apnea machines keep your airway open with a stream of pressurized air. Since they clear your airway, you will breathe more easily and sleep throughout the night. So yes, they are good for you. However, many patients prefer a sleep apnea appliance. Like a CPAP, these devices keep your airway open. Most people find them more comfortable to wear and less distracting for bed partners than a CPAP, however.
We can see you as soon as tomorrow!
