Can My Dentist Help With Obstructive Sleep Apnea And Snoring Treatment?
The Leah Zils, DDS team works alongside patients to help them with cosmetic, restorative, and general dentistry solutions to achieve and maintain healthy smiles. However, they also offer other alternative treatment options for patients to consider. It is worth noting that Dr. Leah Zils from The Woodlands, Texas, provides oral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. However, many patients are unaware of this treatment option, which can be incredibly beneficial for those dealing with sleep-disordered breathing problems. This service is a valuable addition to our team’s treatment options.
How Can My Dentist Help Me Stop Snoring And Deal With An OSA Treatment?
Obstructive sleep apnea may include snoring, but sometimes, they are two different concerns. Regardless, the dental team at Leah Zils, DDS can assist with providing an oral appliance for both sleep apnea and snoring. Oral appliance therapy is a sleep appliance worn when sleeping to maintain open airways and reduce or even eliminate snoring and the side effects of obstructive sleep apnea. This ensures better rest, providing a more improved quality of life for patients ready to address their sleep-disordered breathing!
What Other Options Are Available For Treatment Of Snoring And Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Many patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea or chronic snoring are advised by their primary care doctors to wear and use a CPAP machine. Unfortunately, this device, which fits over the nose and mouth using a mask, can be uncomfortable and cumbersome–causing patients to stop using it. This can cause symptoms to return and can impact one’s daily life. Instead, our team finds that patients comply better with treatment when provided an oral appliance for sleep-disordered breathing, ensuring improved overall outcomes.
