Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts throughout the night. It is potentially serious, and treatment is recommended. If you snore loudly and feel tired even after a full night’s sleep, you could have sleep apnea. A diagnosis usually will require a referral to a sleep disorder center, which will determine the need for further evaluation. Overnight monitoring may be held in order to make the diagnosis and move on to choosing the best method of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is sleep apnea and how do I know if I have it?
Sleep apnea is a condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. Common signs include loud snoring, gasping for air at night, morning headaches, dry mouth, and daytime fatigue. If you feel tired despite a full night’s sleep, an evaluation may be recommended.
How is sleep apnea diagnosed?
Sleep apnea is typically diagnosed through a sleep study ordered by a physician. This may be completed at a sleep center or at home using a portable monitor. The study measures breathing patterns, oxygen levels, and interruptions in sleep to determine severity.
Can a dentist treat sleep apnea?
Yes. At DeAngelis Family Dentistry, we provide custom oral appliance therapy for patients diagnosed with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. We work in coordination with your physician to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment planning before fabricating a dental sleep appliance.
What are oral appliances for sleep apnea and how do they work?
Oral appliances are custom-made devices worn during sleep. They gently reposition the lower jaw forward to help keep the airway open. This reduces airway collapse, decreases snoring, and improves breathing throughout the night for appropriate candidates.
Can untreated sleep apnea affect my overall health?
Yes. Untreated sleep apnea has been linked to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and chronic fatigue. It can also affect concentration and mood. Seeking evaluation and treatment helps protect both your oral health and overall well-being.
