Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder that happens when something interrupts a person’s breathing while asleep. People stop breathing periodically during the night. Sleep apnea can occur hundreds of times. Because of this constant breathing problem overnight, the brain and body are not getting enough oxygen. That lack of oxygen and regular sleep interruptions can lead to many health problems.
Snore Guards
Snore guards, also known as mandibular advancement devices, treat snoring by preventing the tongue from moving back into the mouth and jaw and relaxing too far. This treatment can also help treat sleep apnea because it keeps the jaw stable to support the body’s breathing mechanisms.
