Either you have woken yourself up, or you accidentally wake up
your loved one in the middle of the night. Snoring is a common nuisance that
many people experience at some point in their life. For some of us, snoring
is an issue that persists throughout our entire lives. Is there a fixture for
snoring? Bilski Dental Group can help you with your snoring
problem.
Fixing The Snoring Problem
In the dental practice world, snoring is usually taken care of
with a snoring appliance. To treat snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), oral
devices can be worn over your teeth, similar to an orthodontic retainer. This
can aid in supporting your jaw forward to keep your airway open while you
sleep.
Sometimes the retainer will be for your upper and lower jaw. A
snoring appliance will aid in snoring by reducing the amount of tongue
blocking your airway. These appliances can take anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks to
be made. The snoring devices can be designed specifically for your mouth by
taking clay molds of your upper jaw and lower jaw and create a
personalized appliance.
Snoring can be a sign of a more serious condition like sleep
apnea, so it’s best to get this problem taken care of before things
escalate. Bilski Dental Group can help you throughout this journey to get
better sleep, live a healthier life, and much more.
