Your oral health requires around-the-clock care, including when you are asleep. Oral sleep disorders like sleep apnea, snoring, and teeth grinding (bruxism) can affect your oral and overall health. At Liberty Lake Smile Source, we are dedicated to caring for our patients’ health and improving their quality of life. We offer advanced snoring, teeth grinding, and sleep apnea treatment at our dental center in Liberty Lake, WA.
SLEEP APNEA & SOLUTIONS
Obstructive sleep apnea can interrupt breathing while you sleep, affecting your health. Unrestful sleep may cause fatigue and headaches, as well as a higher risk of hypertension and other health conditions. For many people with sleep apnea, simply adjusting the jaw while sleeping can open the airway and improve breathing.
Our sleep apnea treatment uses a dental night guard that patients wear when they sleep. For many people with sleep apnea, this improves their breathing and eliminates the need for other, more invasive treatments like using a CPAP machine. The dental night guard is customized to fit the patient’s mouth for a comfortable experience while sleeping.
RELIEF FROM SNORING & TEETH GRINDING
A dental night guard can help with other nocturnal oral health issues beyond sleep apnea. If you grind your teeth or snore while sleeping, a dental night guard can help with these concerns. The plastic mouthguard protects teeth from grinding and the jaw adjustment works to eliminate snoring for most people. You and your sleep partners can enjoy a better night’s sleep when you use a nightguard to stop teeth grinding and snoring.
If you have sleep apnea or bruxism, a dental night guard can significantly improve your oral and overall health. Our dentist can evaluate your oral health and determine the best treatment option to relieve snoring, teeth grinding, and sleep apnea.
LIFESTYLE & SLEEP HEALTH EDUCATION
We believe in the power of education and its role in enhancing treatment outcomes. That’s why we provide valuable advice on lifestyle modifications and sleep hygiene practices that can complement your treatment. Simple changes in your daily routine, such as establishing a regular sleep schedule, avoiding caffeine and heavy meals before bedtime, and creating a comfortable sleep environment, can significantly improve your sleep quality. Our team is committed to guiding you through these changes, offering tips and resources to help you adopt a healthier sleep routine.
