Is snoring keeping you or your loved one awake?
Dental appliances are recommended by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine as a solution for those who are intolerant of the CPAP machine.
Even though a person snoring is the considered the most common and obvious symptom someone will exhibit when they suffer from sleep apnea, another one, which is a more serious health concern is skipping breaths while you are asleep. If this condition isn’t treated, sleep apnea has been shown to be associated with higher risk for serious health problems, such as heart attack or stroke.
