Snoreguards/Sleep Apnea Therapy
If you or someone you sleep near snores, you're probably tired right now! Snoring and sleep apnea are conditions that compromise quality of life. Without adequate rest, people become forgetful, irritable, and sometimes fall asleep at inappropriate times. Don't let snoring or sleep apnea rule your waking hours!
Dr. Blank can provide a simple oral appliance (not a bulky CPAP mask) that holds the jaw and soft tissues out of the airflow path of breathing. Snoring occurs when tissues vibrate because they block the airway. Obstructive sleep apnea is a more serious condition that causes a person to stop breathing for 10 seconds or longer, repeatedly throughout a sleep session. However, obstructive sleep apnea also involves airway blockage. The conservative snoreguard that Dr. Blank prescribes fits into the mouth, and you simply wear it while you sleep. While a snoreguard doesn't work for every patient, it is a minimally invasive, simple therapy that may improve your quality of life.
