Sleep apnea is a common disorder in which you have one or more pauses in breathing or shallow breaths when you sleep. This results in poor sleep quality that makes you tired during the day. Sleep apnea is one of the leading causes of excessive daytime sleepiness and is one of the most dangerous effects on the body because the cessation of breathing can cause oxygen deprivation to the brain and circulatory system.
Our team can construct intra-oral appliances that can assist in proper nighttime breathing reducing the risk of sleep apnea. These appliances can also minimize snoring. Learn more about sleep apnea by contacting our State College office today.
