Snoring: More Than Just a Noise

Snoring is not just a sound during sleep. It’s linked to issues like sleep deprivation, daytime
drowsiness, irritability, trouble focusing, and decreased libido. Loud snoring can increase the
risk of heart attacks—57% of men and 40% of women in the U.S. snore.

Many people ignore snoring, but it can be a sign of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

Nearly 54 million adults in the U.S. have OSA. This happens when muscles relax during sleep, causing the airway to collapse and block airflow. This can make you stop breathing multiple times a night for a few seconds to over a minute. These pauses disturb your sleep, leading to daytime fatigue.

A doctor must diagnose OSA. A sleep evaluation can involve an overnight sleep study or a home sleep apnea test (HSAT). A specialist will review the results to determine if you have OSA.

Treating OSA

Once diagnosed, your doctor will discuss treatment options such as:

● Oral appliance therapy (OAT)
● Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy
● Surgery

Treating OSA is essential to prevent excessive fatigue, morning headaches, and memory loss. Untreated OSA increases the risk of drowsy driving, accidents, and serious health problems like heart disease and stroke.

Patient Experience

1. Screening, Evaluation, and Diagnosis

We work closely with doctors specializing in diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We recommend scheduling an appointment with your primary care doctor or a sleep specialist. Your doctor will perform a sleep evaluation, which may involve an overnight sleep test at a sleep center or a home sleep apnea test (HSAT). A sleep specialist will analyze the results to determine if you have OSA.

The most common treatment for OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. Inform your doctor if you’re interested in an oral appliance instead of a CPAP mask.
