Sleep Apnea

Do you snore? Have you ever been told that you do? Your partner may constantly snore, disrupting your sleep. Although snoring is quite common, it can sometimes be a symptom of a more significant problem called obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

It may be tempting to blame your fatigue on the recent time change. After all, setting the clock forward one hour has been shown to mess with our circadian rhythms and make us more vulnerable to sleep deprivation. However, if you consistently suffer from daytime tiredness, then there are probably other factors at play.

When people think about problems a dentist can treat, they don't often think about sleep apnea. But, in fact, sleep apnea treatment is among the most important services we offer to our Oakton-area patients at Softouch Dental Care.

Why? Because sleep apnea is a serious condition, and our patients who suffer from it are desperate for a solution. They're tired of being tired, of dealing with the serious effects on their health and well-being that comes with the condition.
