Sleep Apnea Treatments – Chicago Smile Design

Is snoring keeping you or your partner awake?

If you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea in Chicago or are having trouble sleeping due to snoring, you may be a candidate for a dental appliance. Dental appliances are recommended by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine as a solution for those who are intolerant of the CPAP machine.

Though snoring is the most obvious of sleep apnea symptoms, skipping breaths while you sleep is by far a more serious health concern. Left untreated, sleep apnea has been shown to be associated with higher risk for serious health problems, such as heart attack or stroke. When you skip breaths, your blood oxygen level plummets. This can compromise your whole-body health.
