If you suffer from sleepless nights, feeling drained and groggy during the day, then you might be suffering from sleep apnea. This serious medical problem affects roughly 22 million Americans, though most cases go untreated. Sleep is critical for a body to function optimally, and lack of sleep can lead to a running list of other health issues. Sleep apnea disrupts the circadian rhythm, which in turn affects energy levels, moods, and relationships. The most noticeable and frequent symptom of sleep apnea is loud snoring.
Custom Mouthpieces
At Dr. Lance Johnson Family Dentistry, we build personal oral appliances that are designed to provide better sleep for those suffering from sleep apnea. Custom mouthpieces keep your airway open, allow for easy breathing, and stop loud snoring. With a custom sleep apnea mouthpiece, you’ll minimize those long pauses without air and hopefully experience fewer sleepless nights.
Similar in shape to a retainer, this oral appliance can be easily cleaned and stored and travels well. Our team provides regular check-ups to address issues with mouthpiece fit and make adjustments as needed. Give us a call today to experience peaceful, uninterrupted sleep.
