Snoring can be troublesome, but it can also be a sign of health problems. While those who snore are trying to get quality sleep, others around them are left tired and sleepless from the noise. We all know couples who sleep in separate rooms because of this. But, a more debilitating, common sleep disorder is the blockage of air to the lungs, often accompanied by nighttime gasping. This happens when the tongue falls back and covers the airway. This condition is called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and can cause serious health problems, including depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, an irregular heartbeat or heart rate, coronary artery disease, diabetes and strokes.
An overnight sleep study is necessary before any device can be fabricated. This is for your benefit by:
1). If you are diagnosed with severe sleep apnea after the study, you must try a CPAP machine.
2). If you are diagnosed with mild to moderate sleep apnea, your medical insurance MAY cover part of the cost of the Full Breath appliance as the sleep study verified your OSA.
A major problem caused by both snoring and OSAis fatigue and daytime drowsiness. These have major effects on one’s productivity and ability to function successfully in life!A lack of oxygen to the brain and other organs can cause extreme exhaustion, headaches, the need for naps to get through one’s day, irritability and memory loss. It can lead to disease and certainly speed aging – after all, every cell needs oxygen to stay healthy and alive!
For those that cannot tolerate a CPAP, we have a patented, custom made mouthpiece with 5 FDA clearances that is worn while sleeping and it fits like a dental retainer. It is comfortable and effective in opening the airway.
