Sleep Dentistry Explained
Sleep dentistry provides sleep and snoring treatment. Your treatment will involve:
- An initial consultation to discuss your symptoms.
- A sleep assessment or sleep study.
- Design and fitting of a custom oral appliance.
- Follow-up visits for adjustments and monitoring.
Treatment options include:
• Oral Appliance Therapy: A custom mouthguard that gently keeps your airway open while you sleep.
• CPAP Therapy: A machine that delivers steady air pressure to support breathing whilst you sleep.
Oral appliance therapy is portable, non-invasive, and easy to wear. You will notice better sleep quality, less snoring, improved focus, and more daytime energy, which can also benefit your partner. Sleep dentistry may suit you if you have mild to moderate sleep apnoea, are a chronic snorer or struggle with CPAP therapy.
Sleep Apnoea Symptoms
- Loud snoring.
- Interrupted breathing whilst you sleep.
- A noticeable sense of fatigue.
- Frequent morning headaches.
- Poor concentration and memory.
Sleep Apnoea Risks
Untreated sleep apnoea can have serious risks, including:
• Cardiovascular risks, including high blood pressure and heart disease.
• Ongoing fatigue that reduces productivity.
• Memory problems and poor concentration.
• Impacts on mental health.
CPAP vs Oral Appliances
• CPAP Therapy: Delivers continuous airflow and is highly effective, particularly for severe sleep apnoea, but can be bulky and noisy.
• Oral Appliances: Custom-fitted, comfortable, discreet, and easier to use and travel with, making them ideal for mild to moderate sleep apnoea or those who cannot tolerate CPAP.
