Thankfully, with the team at Dental Expressions, you have dental treatment options that can make the CPAP better for you, or even replace it altogether.

Robert and Heather Heil explain that sleep apnea is the second most common sleep disorder after insomnia. Most people who have this suffer from <em>obstructive sleep apnea<\/em> \u2013 when you sleep, your tongue and lower jaw relax, sliding against the back of your throat and blocking your airway while you rest.<\/p>\n<p>Since your body is wise enough to know you\u2019re not getting the oxygen you need, you\u2019ll wake up, but often not remember it. These \u201cmicro-arousals\u201d can happen hundreds of times a night \u2013 leaving you exhausted, but without knowing the reason why.<\/p>\n<h2>What Are The Signs &amp; Symptoms Of Sleep Apnea?<\/h2>\n<p>Sleep apnea has many common symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gaps or elongated pauses in breathing when you sleep \u2013 usually noticed by your partner.<\/li>\n<li>Waking up gasping for air or with an asthma attack.<\/li>\n<li>Waking up to urinate.<\/li>\n<li>Morning headaches.<\/li>\n<li>Exhaustion, even after sleeping 8 or more hours.<\/li>\n<li>Sleepiness while driving.<\/li>\n<li>Craving carbs and sweets for energy.<\/li>\n<li>Depression, irritability, forgetfulness, and trouble concentrating.<\/li>\n<li>Decreased interest in sex.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Can I Find Out If I Have Sleep Apnea?<\/h2>\n<p>If you think you might be affected by sleep apnea, talk with our team or your doctor today \u2013 don\u2019t wait. Review these\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/sleep-apnea\/basics\/risk-factors\/con-20020286\">risk factors<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.resmed.com\/us\/en\/consumer\/diagnosis-and-treatment\/what-is-sleep-apnea\/sleep-apnea-quiz.html\">take this sleep apnea quiz<\/a>. After a sleep study, you\u2019ll get the answers you need to address your sleep problem.<\/p>\n<h2>Are There Dental Treatments For Sleep Apnea?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re diagnosed with this sleep disorder, you\u2019ll most likely be prescribed a CPAP machine. Since the tubing can be cumbersome, and the air pressure can be uncomfortable, many people stop using their CPAP \u2013 and no treatment is effective if patients don\u2019t use it.<\/p>\n<p>If CPAP isn\u2019t right for you, or if it doesn\u2019t work strongly enough, we can use Custom Oral Appliance Therapy (COAT). We will fit you for an oral device that looks similar to a nightguard. This will gently shift your lower jaw and tongue forward while you sleep, allowing you to breathe easy. COAT is safe and effective \u2013 it works well for the vast majority of patients. And, it can be used in conjunction with CPAP to give you the best treatment possible.<\/p>\n<p>So if you\u2019re having trouble getting the rest you need, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatdentalexpressions.com\/request-an-appointment.html\">schedule an appointment<\/a> with Dental Expressions \u2013 we\u2019re here to get you back to sleep!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019re exhausted all the time \u2013 even after sleeping for more than 9 hours, you still feel beat, foggy, and irritable.
