Snoring and sleep problems can be caused by dental issues. We treat the dental problems to prevent you from having a disrupted sleep pattern, and help you to identify any other causes that can be treated with our sleep apnoea treatment.
Snoring may be an indication that you have a condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), a condition where throat muscles relax during sleep and block the airway. Symptoms of sleep apnoea syndrome include excessive daytime sleepiness, high blood pressure, and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.
Before beginning any treatment, suspected OSA sufferers must have an evaluation from a respiratory or sleep physician to determine whether treatment is necessary. From there, we can help to treat the issue, relieve any discomfort, and avoid detrimental health consequences with sleep apnoea solutions.
While sleep apnoea and snoring cannot be cured, managing it can help to reduce the frequency of symptoms, leading to more restful sleep. The primary treatment is the use of a special splint for snoring and sleep apnoea, known as a Mandibular Advancement Splint (MAS) used for snoring and sleep apnoea treatment. This splint can be used to treat mild to moderate OSA and regular snoring. Each sleep apnoea splint is custom-made for the patient and used to incrementally bring the lower jaw forwards, helping to keep the airway open during sleep.
Treatment begins with an initial appointment where we take impressions of your upper and lower jaws so we can tailor the splint to your unique mouth profile. From there, we have a second appointment to fit and adjust the device so it sits correctly. You will be required to attend regular appointments for adjustments, as your jaw progressively moves.
