Sleep Apnea & Anti- Snoring Treatment 

Snoring is not physically harmful to the person who snores, but it is highly irritating to anyone kept awake by the noise.

But snoring may also be a symptom of significant sleep-disordered breathing or obstructive sleep apnoea. Obstructive

sleep apnoea can be harmful to health and may ultimately lead to life-threatening conditions due to breathing being repeatedly interrupted during sleep.

Some symptoms are snoring, poor concentration, morning headaches, depressed mood, weight gain, high blood pressure, lack of energy, forgetfulness, night sweats & frequent urination at night.

Your brain responds to low oxygen levels in your blood by briefly waking you from sleep so that you can take a breath. Your partner may notice that you make a gasping or chocking sound.

The use of specialized oral appliances can be effective method of treating snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea. They push your lower jaw forward and result in a wider airway, allowing an interrupted breathing during the night.

Proper diagnosis of the cause of sleep apnoea is essential so that the most appropriate treatment can be offered as you will need to get a sleep assessment.
