Sleep apnea, a potentially life-threatening condition, is one of the most under diagnosed sleep disorders. Sleep apnea is a treatable condition in which a person stops breathing, often hundreds of times, during the night. The most significant component of sleep apnea that has captured attention is its association with loud snoring, a common complaint of a bed partner. Although sleepiness and fatigue are often common symptoms of sleep apnea, recent research has linked many other health problems and consequences to sleep apnea.
Symptoms commonly associated with snoring/sleep apnea:
- Loud snoring
- Fatigue/sleep
- Wake unrefreshed from sleep
- Driving sleepy
- Stop breathing during sleep
- Restless sleep
- Clenching/grinding during sleep
- Previous strokes
- Difficulty concentrating/poor memory
- Awakening with a dry mouth or coated tongue
The Snoring and Sleep Apnea Treatment Centers can treat your snoring and sleep apnea disorder. Thankfully, our expert sleep doctors offer a safe, effective alternative to traditional sleep apnea treatments by fitting you with a customized oral appliance. These appliances are recommended by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and worn in the mouth, just like a sports mouth guard or an orthodontic appliance, while you sleep. Oral appliances hold the lower jaw forward just enough to keep the airway open and prevent the tongue and muscles in the upper airway from collapsing and blocking the airway.
Our clinics and practitioners are covered by most medical insurance companies and HMO’s in the state of Wisconsin, and we are exclusive providers for many of those in southeastern Wisconsin. Please call to schedule an appointment today at 877-917-6673.
