Improve Your Quality of Life With Treatment

One of the most common types of apnea is obstructive sleep apnea or OSA. It happens when the tongue and soft tissues in the back of your throat relax too much while you sleep.

This blocks your airways, causing you to stop breathing for a few seconds. You briefly wake up to take in more oxygen, interrupting your sleep cycle. This process can repeat itself dozens of times while you sleep, leaving you tired and groggy the next day.

Because sleep apnea is linked to several serious health conditions, getting treatment now will improve your overall health.

What is sleep apnea?

Sleep apnea is a condition caused when your airway becomes obstructed while you sleep. This usually occurs when your tongue or other soft tissue in your mouth temporarily relaxes. This causes frequent interruptions in your breathing that make it nearly impossible for you - and often your household - to get a good night's rest.

Why is sleep apnea bad?

Sleep apnea can greatly affect the quality of your sleep, leaving you drained and exhausted during your workday. Sleep apnea has also been linked to serious health conditions like high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes. Getting help for your sleep apnea now can improve your quality of life as well as your life span.

How is sleep apnea treated?

CPAP therapy is often the first recommended treatment for sleep apnea. While CPAP is effective, many people have trouble getting used to having air blown through their mouth and nose. A good alternative treatment option is a custom-fit sleep appliance. It will fit comfortably in your mouth while you sleep, gently moving your lower jaw forward to keep your air passages open.
