Naples Snoring/Sleep Apnea
Is your loved one’s snoring keeping you up at night? We can help. At Cameron Dental Studio, our mandibular advancement devices promote better breathing while sleeping for a better night’s rest for everyone.
What is the Main Cause of Snoring?
When we sleep, the muscles and soft tissues in our mouth and throat relax, narrowing our breathing passage. Air travels more quickly through the narrower passage, sometimes causing the soft tissues in front of it to vibrate. This vibration is what is happening when someone is snoring. Snoring is a symptom of a condition called sleep apnea.
What is the Best Solution for Snoring and Sleep Apnea?
For snoring and mild to moderate sleep apnea, the most effective non-surgical solution is oral appliance therapy. This treatment involves wearing a mandibular advancement device that causes the lower jaw to protrude so as to keep the breathing passage open overnight. This promotes better breathing, which in turn reduces or eliminates snoring. Studies have shown that most patients prefer using a mandibular advancement device over using a CPAP machine.
