If your friends and family have begun to mention their concerns about your loud snoring, take their worries to heart. This may be a sign of chronic obstructive sleep apnea, and if it is, it can hold you back in a number of ways. You could struggle to make it through the day, as we all need a full night of deep sleep in order to be effective. Even more than that, however, untreated sleep apnea greatly increases your risk of conditions like heart attack and stroke.
Our sleep clinic in Greenville & McKinney, TX has a solution for obstructive sleep apnea that is more comfortable and quieter than traditional CPAP therapy. If you have been holding off on seeking treatment due to the hoses and wires, we have an alternative that works by gently repositioning the jaw to keep the airway open throughout the night. For many patients, this is enough to calm the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea and reduce the health risks associated with this common sleep disorder. To find out more, call our office today!
