Stop Snoring

Sometimes when we sleep, the muscles that hold the airway open relax and partially collapse, obstructing the flow of air slightly.  Air passing through the partially collapsed airway can cause a vibrating sound known as snoring.

What The SomnoDent™ MAS Does

The appliance is for the effective treatment of snoring and for the more serious condition of obstructive sleep apnea.

Snoring as an Indicator of Obstructive sleep Apnea

Snoring can create irritability and mood swings and subsequent relationship problems. 

Snoring may however, be the sign of a serious condition known as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).  While not everyone who snores suffers from obstructive sleep apnea, Dr. Julie suggests that if you have been heard to gasp or breath or have sudden spells of drowsiness during the day, then you should obtain a referral to a qualified  sleep  medicine physician.
