If you snore at night, it may disrupt your rest and disturb your loved ones, preventing both you and them from getting the rejuvenating sleep necessary to maintaining a healthy quality of life. Our experienced dentist and team offer snore guards as a solution to help you breathe easily so that you and your loved ones can get the rest you need.
Why Should I Visit a Dentist For Snoring?
Our dentist and team invite you to contact us soon if you are one of the many adults who suffer from snoring. When you visit us for snoring treatment, we will also assess for signs of sleep apnea. Even if it is determined by a sleep physician and sleep study that you are not suffering from sleep apnea, our team is happy to help with your snoring. Aside from disturbing the sleep of others, snoring can lead to a variety of complications. For example, snoring can lead to depression, cardiac disease, hypertension, headaches, lack of concentration and fatigue. Furthermore, it is important to review your treatment options early because snoring typically becomes worse with age.
What Can We Do to Stop Snoring?
When you fall asleep, your muscles relax — including the muscles in the back of your throat. This leads to your airway becoming blocked and to the muscles in your throat rubbing. The combination of these factors leads to snoring. To help combat this problem, our dentist can create a mouth guard that fits comfortably over your teeth and prevents your muscles from touching or from obstructing your airway.
We invite you to contact us today at 619-591-8945 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Derek Lichter and learn how snore guards in Chula Vista, California, can improve your quality of sleep.
