Sleep apnea is a serious, potentially life-threatening disorder that causes a person to stop breathing often multiple times, while they sleep.
It’s often at the dental office where the signs of sleep apnea are first noticed. So don’t be alarmed if we start asking you about your snoring habits, sleep schedule, headaches or dry mouth. If we see signs of an issue, we will let you know the next steps to take to get an official diagnosis.
Depending on your situation, your treatment plan might include returning to us for an oral appliance!
