What is Sleep Apnea?

  • Sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts.
  • Sleep Apnea is a condition in which breathing ceases for about ten seconds while a person is sleeping.
  • It is identified as one of the major sleep problems that cause daytime sleepiness and significantly impact your overall health.

What are the Symptoms of Sleep Apnea?

  • Poor memory,
  • Headaches,
  • Muscle tenderness is evident on the face, back, and neck.
  • Daytime sleepiness.
  • Dry Mouth
  • Snoring is one symptom of a SDB problem.

Upon your initial Dental consultation, we will:

  1. Review the history of your sleep condition.
  2. Complete thorough examination of your teeth and mouth, head, neck, and jaw.
  3. If we suspect OSA (Snoring & Obstructive Sleep Apnea), we can refer you to a sleep specialist. A qualified sleep physician performs a sleep study (polysomnography) and measures oxygen saturation, brain waves, depth of sleep, the number of times you stop breathing (for more than 10 seconds or have a restricted airway), and much more. Then they will provide the correct treatment for your sleep apnea. 

If you suspect you suffer from sleep apnea, we’d love to meet with you and help you understand how it could affect your oral health. To learn more or book an appointment, contact ProCare Family Dental today. Call us at PROCARE FAMILY DENTAL Phone Number (847) 965-6223
