Snoring Treatment
Snoring Treatment
Did you know that approximately 50% of adult Americans snore or have snored at some point? Snoring is a sign that a person suffers from sleep apnea. In fact, 26% of adults have some form of sleep apnea, which can be a life-threatening condition. The difference between benign snoring and sleep apnea is that apnea patients experience cessations in their breathing patterns and may suddenly gasp for air or choke in their sleep. This can lead to severe drowsiness and fatigue during the day, as well as depression, memory loss and decreased libido. Sleep apnea & snoring treatments usually depends on the severity of the condition and whether patients are experiencing apnea or simple snoring. Some of the most common treatments include behavioral modifications, weight loss, sleeping positions, oral sleep appliances, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices, and/or, in some severe cases, surgery.
