Snoring? Tired? Unexpected Weight Gain? Tossing and Turning?
It could be SLEEP APNEA!
|
While we all tease and make fun of snoring, it's actually no laughing matter! Obstructive Sleep Apnea is quickly becoming a national epidemic and if left untreated it could decrease your life expectancy by 8-10 years!
Over 20% of adults living in the USA who have no other health risks, have been diagnosed with sleep apnea. There are low, moderate and high risk factors which can all lead to very serious health issues and possibly death. Unfortunately, many individuals go without being diagnosed - believing they suffer from restless nights or snoring is an indication of some other issue. On top of that, many patients who are diagnosed with Sleep Apnea cannot wear a CPAP, which is considered the gold standard for Sleep Apnea treatment. Now there is a solution for patients who are diagnosed with Sleep Apnea! A dental sleep appliance, ordered by one of our doctors, can be used to manage and treat sleep apnea! |
Many patients cannot use a CPAP machine to treat their Sleep Apnea.
A Dental Sleep Appliance is another option for Sleep Apnea treatment, and your medical insurance could cover the cost! Contact us to find out more!
