Do you or your partner snore?

That could be a sign of a serious condition called Sleep Apnea that occurs when your breathing is paused during sleep. 

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is the most common form of sleep apnea and can be treated in many cases by using an oral appliance provided by your dentist under medical supervision.

​

This chronic condition occurs when your muscles relax and your tongue falls back during sleep, blocking your upper airway. As a result, you to stop breathing up to hundreds of times a night for anywhere from a few seconds to more than a minute, which often reduce your oxygen levels. These breathing interruptions are followed by brief awakenings that disturb your sleep. Daytime sleepiness, snoring and gasping or choking sounds during sleep are common signs of OSA.
