Treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea With Help From Your Dentist In Phoenix

Sleep apnea is a serious condition caused by an obstruction in the airway when the muscles in the throat relax during sleep. This can be caused by excess weight, having a large tongue or tonsils, or congestion in the back of the throat. Our dentists at Garden Lakes Family Dentistry are here to help you obtain a good night’s rest with custom-fitted oral appliances to treat your OSA symptoms. Call today!

How is sleep apnea treated at Garden Lakes Family Dentistry?

Our dentist will first take measurements of your mouth to ensure your dental appliance fits your unique needs. These measurements will be sent to a technician, who will create your small, flexible, custom-fitted plastic device, which will help reduce snoring and other symptoms of sleep apnea.

What are the benefits of sleep apnea treatment at Garden Lakes Family Dentistry?

Along with improved sleep quality, reduced snoring, and improved cognitive functioning during the day, an oral appliance can also reduce a patient’s risk for high blood pressure and other medical complications that are associated with untreated sleep apnea.

If you wake up in the morning feeling groggy and irritable, and have difficulty starting your day, you may be suffering from sleep apnea. Other systems include snoring, headaches, and depression. If you experience any of these symptoms, call us today to schedule a thorough assessment.
