      SLEEP APNEA

      Sleep Apnea Treatments in Des Plaines, IL 

      Sleep Apnea is a condition whereby repeated pauses in breathing, which can last anywhere from several seconds to minutes, and happen as often as 30 times or more per hour, will over time lead to potentially life-threatening problems. Here are some common medical problems associated with untreated sleep apnea:


      ● Cardiac Problems ● High Blood Pressure ● Stroke ● Diabetes ● Erectile Dysfunction ● Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease

      Symptoms 

      The signs and symptoms of obstructive and central sleep apneas overlap, sometimes making it difficult to determine which type you have. The most common signs and symptoms of obstructive and central sleep apnea include:


      ● Loud snoring

      ● Episodes in which you stop breathing during sleep — which would be reported by another person

      ● Gasping for air during sleep

      ● Awakening with a dry mouth ● Morning headache

      ● Difficulty staying asleep (insomnia)

      ● Excessive daytime sleepiness (hypersomnia)

      ● Difficulty paying attention while awake ● Irritability

      Snoring is a common symptom of sleep apnea that causes dry mouth, leading to oral bacterial infections or other dental issues. Bruxism (aka grinding teeth) diminishes not only your quality of sleep but harms the enamel, making your teeth vulnerable to tooth decay.


      Roseroot Dental works with a local sleep study center to assess the correct solution for your sleep apnea. Roseroot Dental makes easy-to-use, custom-made devices for sleep apnea that permit the management of snoring and symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in a comfortable manner.
