Find Lasting Relief From Sleep Apnea in San Antonio

If you find yourself waking up feeling exhausted or have been told you snore, you could be suffering from sleep apnea in San Antonio.

The team at My Hometown Dentist would love to help you with your sleep apnea symptoms. Our treatment, using, a custom sleep appliance, can allow you to:

Get a Custom Appliance for Your Sleep Apnea Symptoms

Obstructive sleep apnea, which is the most common type of this disorder, occurs when your tongue and other soft tissues in the back of your throat temporarily block your air passages. When this happens, you’ll wake up momentarily to take in more air, then drift back to sleep – usually without any awareness. This cycle can repeat itself dozens of times per hour for severe cases of apnea.

Our team can help you with a professional sleep apnea appliance. It will:

  • Be custom made for you for the most comfortable fit
  • Work without a cumbersome mask or tubing, unlike a CPAP machine
  • Move your lower jaw forward a bit to keep your airway open, so you breathe easily and get a better night’s sleep
  • Fit easily into a pocket or purse, so it’s easy to use anywhere you go
  • Not affect the the nighttime routines of you or your bed partner
  • Lower your risk for health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, strokes, heart attacks, and depression

If you think you could be suffering from sleep apnea in Houston, call My Hometown Dentist today. Be sure to schedule your next regular checkup, too.

Common Questions About Sleep Apnea

What is sleep apnea?

There are different types of sleep apnea, but generally, the condition affects your ability to breathe normally while you sleep. Obstructive sleep apnea is the most common type; your airway becomes repeatedly blocked while you are sleeping. A more serious and rare form is central sleep apnea, when your brain fails to send messages to your body’s breathing mechanisms as you sleep.

Why is sleep apnea bad?

Sleep apnea not only disrupts your sleep, but it has also been linked to several major health conditions. These include high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression. Getting treatment early on can help you avoid these health issues, enjoy a better quality of life, and even potentially help you live longer.

Can sleep apnea cause depression?

Studies have linked sleep apnea to multiple serious health conditions, including depression. Some symptoms of depression and sleep apnea overlap, which can make it difficult in some cases to realize that apnea and depression may be related. With either condition, you may suffer from headaches, excessive fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.
