Sleep Apnea Therapy

Do you snore? Does your spouse snore? If snoring or sleep apnea interferes with your sound sleep, you may feel groggy, irritable, and forgetful during the day. You might even fall asleep in the car or in a quiet office. Snoring can be remedied, and you can reclaim solid sleep.

Your snoring may be caused by the collapse of oral structures, which inhibits clear airflow. If you have obstructive sleep apnea, you actually stop breathing for 10 or more seconds at a time, and you may do this hundreds of times each night.

Dr. Hale often recommends SomnaMed or the TAP 3 appliance to alleviate snoring by repositioning the jaw. These simple appliances can ensure that your airway stays clear, so you can rest without snoring…and your spouse can enjoy a good night's sleep, too! Call Smiles by Hale today to schedule your snoring or sleep apnea consultation with Dr. Hale.
