Sleep Apnea

In today’s busy world, getting a good night’s rest is essential. If you snore loudly, you may be keeping your bed partner from getting their much-needed rest. You also may be suffering from a disorder known as sleep apnea that could be keeping you from the rejuvenating sleep you need. Here’s what you should know.

What Is Sleep Apnea?

Sleep apnea occurs when your airway is obstructed or blocked during the night, cutting off your oxygen supply. When you’re not getting enough oxygen, it signals your brain to wake you up so you can start breathing again. This can happen several times during the night without you realizing it, but it can also keep you from the restful, revitalizing sleep you need.

What to Expect: Getting Your Custom Silent Nite Appliance in High Point

Here is a step-by-step outline of what to expect when you choose a custom oral appliance to treat your sleep apnea or snoring.

Step One: Your Initial Consultation

If you’re not already diagnosed with sleep apnea, Dr. Bray will recommend a sleep study and provide the information you need to complete it.

Step Two: Mess-Free Impressions

Dr. Bray uses 3-D digital impressions to comfortably capture images of your teeth that we use to create your custom appliance.

Step Three: Custom Fitting

Dr. Bray will make sure your new appliance fits comfortably and adjust it as needed so you can enjoy a great night's rest.

The Serious Long-Term Risks of Untreated Sleep Apnea

Sleep apnea can be difficult to diagnose on your own, since it takes place during sleep. It is often your bed partner who notices the signs, like loud snoring or pauses in your breathing throughout the night.

When it’s left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to some chronic concerns that may significantly impact your quality of life:

  • Fatigue — Feeling chronically exhausted, even after a full night’s sleep
  • Cardiovascular disease — Sleep apnea contributes to an increased heart rate and high blood pressure. It may even result in heart failure, in some cases.
  • Cognitive function — Lack of sleep contributes to brain fog and difficulties with focus and concentration. Lack of oxygen damages brain tissues and contributes to memory loss and conditions like dementia.
  • Mental health concerns — Chronic fatigue contributes to depression, anxiety, and mood swings.

Sleep Apnea Treatment in High Point, NC

General physicians treat sleep apnea with continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) therapy. However, the CPAP requires you to wear a mask during sleep, which many people find uncomfortable.

At Deep River Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, Dr. Bray offers an alternative solution for sleep apnea treatment with a custom oral appliance.

Introducing the Silent Nite®️ Sleep Appliance

Dr. Bray offers the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) and American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) approved custom Silent Nite®️ Sleep Appliance, which comfortably treats mild to moderate sleep apnea.

The oral appliance gently shifts your lower jaw forward to open your airway, allowing for clear, unobstructed breathing throughout the night. Custom-fitted to your teeth, it's comfortable and discreet, so you can wear it with ease while you sleep.

If you think that you or a loved one might be suffering from sleep apnea or you’re interested in learning more about snoring treatment in High Point, we encourage you to contact us at (336) 883-1371 to book an evaluation with Dr. Bray.
