Many people snore. Snoring not only interferes with your sleep but can causing others to be awakened during the night. Fortunately, there is a simple device that could stop your snoring immediately, giving you sound undisturbed sleep. Patients report awaking refreshed, and much more energetic than they had been in years. Thankfully, there are ways that dentistry can address some of these issues. If you’re struggling with sleep, too, discuss your options with our skilled dentists to make a significant difference in your sleep.

What are Snore Guards?

The snore guard positions the lower jaw forward opening the airway allowing the smooth silent passage of air. Snoring is caused when the air way is partially obstructed by the back of the throat. People who snore are not getting the deep REM sleep that your body requires to awake refreshed. Without this deep sleep, you awaken tired, and can be irritable and have problems with thought processes. Your body is being stressed without the relief of a full and sound night of uninterrupted sleep.

How can I treat Sleep Apnea?

Another sleep issue that causes people problems is sleep apnea. This is a problem which requires medical intervention. The easiest way to describe it is a person will forget to breathe when they are asleep. Instead of regular breathing occurring, there are times when the person will not breathe for 30 seconds or more. We can refer you to local sleep doctors to pursue further treatment for sleep apnea. We pride ourselves in providing the care you need to keep you healthy.
