Are You Or Someone You Know Gasping, Choking & Snoring Loudly While Asleep Like The Man In The Above Video?
If the answer is “YES” then that person may be suffering from Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Sleep Apnea has recently been named the “silent killer”! While most known for the loud snoring, sleep apnea will wreak havoc on one’s health if left untreated. Apnea means “cessation of breath”; some patients will stop breathing up to 50+ times an hour! This is TERRIBLE for one’s health in many ways.
Side effects include an increased chance of heart attack, stroke, depression, obesity, high blood pressure, extreme daytime fatigue, decrease in sexual drive, and new studies are linking it to many forms of cancer. Getting quality treatment will help you to:
- Stop loud snoring & gasping while asleep.
- Greatly improve overall health & longevity.on
- Increase energy and mood levels during the day.
- Decrease the chance of stroke & heart attack!
- Limit or eliminate the number of times per night you stop breathing.
Oral appliance therapy has shown tremendous success with helping people treat their sleep apnea & snoring. Many patients diagnosed with sleep apnea get prescribed a CPAP machine; however an estimated 50% of these patients cannot tolerate wearing it and are going without treatment.
There are NO masks, hoses, loud machines or straps involved with an oral appliance. It’s as simple as putting in a custom mouthpiece to sleep (one size fits all, over the counter snoring mouth guards rarely work and can damage teeth)!
Only a highly trained dentist in the art of Dental Sleep Medicine can craft an oral appliance. These are not one size fits all; oral appliances are custom built to the patients bite and mouth size. They are very comfortable, easy to wear and produce no noise. But best of all they will succeed to stop loud snoring and can help to treat sleep apnea.
