Committed to Your Sleep Health

Coral West Dental has been at the forefront of sleep apnea treatment for years. We understand the complexities of sleep apnea and offer a range of treatments to suit different needs and lifestyles.

Understanding Sleep Apnea

Sleep apnea is a common but serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. This condition occurs when a person's airway becomes blocked (Obstructive Sleep Apnea) or when the brain doesn't send proper signals to the muscles controlling breathing (Central Sleep Apnea), or a combination of both (Complex Sleep Apnea Syndrome).

If you suspect you or a loved one has sleep apnea, it's crucial to seek medical attention. Early diagnosis and treatment can reduce the risk of heart problems and other complications.

Recognizing sleep apnea can be challenging because it happens during sleep. However, certain signs can indicate its presence:

Loud, chronic snoring, often noticed by a sleeping partner.
Choking or gasping for air during sleep.
Frequent pauses in breathing during sleep.
Excessive daytime sleepiness, even after a full night's sleep.
Morning headaches and dry mouth upon waking.
Difficulty concentrating during the day.
Irritability or mood changes.

Untreated sleep apnea can lead to significant health complications

Cardiovascular Problems: Sleep apnea is associated with hypertension (high blood pressure), which strains the cardiovascular system. This increases the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Daytime Fatigue: The repeated awakenings associated with sleep apnea make normal, restorative sleep impossible. People with sleep apnea often experience severe daytime drowsiness, fatigue, and irritability.

Complications with Medications and Surgery: Sleep apnea can be a concern with certain medications and general anesthesia. People with sleep apnea may be more likely to experience complications after major surgery because they're prone to breathing problems, particularly when sedated and lying on their back.

Liver Problems: Those with sleep apnea are more likely to have abnormal results on liver function tests, and their livers are more likely to show signs of scarring (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease).
