Sleep apnea is an increasingly common disorder in which you repeatedly stop breathing at night. You literally are suffocating yourself in your sleep. Most people think they just have to learn to live with it and write off the symptoms: snoring, choking at night, gasping for air, dry mouth, headaches, daytime fatigue and anxiety.
Sleep apnea is like a ticking time bomb. Most sufferers go untreated and run the risk of: heart attack, stroke, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, and more.
Unfortunately, they don't know there are simple solutions to help fix their issues...
It all starts with your nose...because if your nose isn't working then no sleep apnea treatment will work. In most cases, simple in-office treatments can quickly and effectively get your nose and sinuses working properly. After that we offer 3 possible options if needed to treat your sleep apnea:
Oral appliance therapy is a effective, non-invasive option to treat sleep apnea. It's a small custom-made device worn while you sleep that repositions your jaw to help keep your airway open.
CPAP therapy is a common way of treating sleep apnea by delivering constant and steady air pressure to help you breathe.
For some patients surgery may be the best option. One solution is UPPP which permanently opens the upper airway.
