Snoring Devices & Sleep Apnea Devices
The health risks of snoring and sleep apnea are clear; poor breathing and poor sleeping can cause serious issues for your health, especially when they are not corrected. While moderate to serious sleep apnea is often treated using a CPAP machine, snoring and mild to moderate cases of sleep apnea can be treated with dental appliances fitted to your mouth and teeth.
Comfortable Snoring Devices to Help You Sleep Better
Snoring and sleep apnea are caused mainly by the inhibition of the airways at night. This is aggravated by certain factors, such as weight, age, family history, and sleeping positions. A snoring device or sleep apnea device works by positioning the mouth in a particular way so that the airways remain clear, even when the body and muscles are relaxed.
How to Know if You Should Book an Appointment
If snoring is disturbing your sleep or your partner’s sleep, you can visit us for a consultation. If your snoring is serious and comes with effects such as daytime drowsiness or morning headaches, your doctor will likely test you for sleep apnea. If sleep apnea is confirmed you can explore different treatment options. If your doctor recommends a dental appliance or device to treat your sleep apnea, you can visit our Burnaby dental clinic to have a device fitted and manufactured specifically for you.
