At Cascade Family Smiles, we are committed to enhancing your health and well-being, recognizing that quality sleep is foundational to overall health. That is why we offer effective sleep apnea treatment options tailored to address this common yet often overlooked condition.
Why Choose Sleep Apnea Treatment?
Sleep apnea is a disorder characterized by pauses in breathing or periods of shallow breathing during sleep. Without treatment, it can lead to a range of health issues, including high blood pressure, heart disease and decreased quality of life. Our sleep apnea treatments are designed to:
- Restore regular breathing during sleep
- Reduce the risk of health complications associated with sleep apnea
- Improve sleep quality and overall energy levels
- Enhance concentration and reduce daytime sleepiness
What to Expect at Our Office
Embarking on treatment for sleep apnea involves a comprehensive approach:
- Detailed Assessment: Dr. Austin Getz will conduct a thorough evaluation, possibly including a sleep study, to diagnose the severity and type of sleep apnea.
- Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on your specific needs, we may recommend lifestyle changes, oral appliance therapy or other treatments designed to keep your airway open during sleep.
- Custom-Fitted Oral Appliances: For many patients, a custom-fitted oral appliance can effectively treat sleep apnea by repositioning the jaw or tongue to prevent airway obstruction.
- Ongoing Support and Adjustment: We will monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan to ensure its effectiveness and your comfort.
Benefits of Sleep Apnea Treatment
- Improved Sleep Quality: Treatment can significantly reduce or eliminate the symptoms of sleep apnea, leading to a better night’s sleep and more energized days.
- Reduced Health Risks: Effective management of sleep apnea decreases the risk of cardiovascular problems, diabetes and other health issues.
- Enhanced Daily Functioning: With better sleep, you will experience improved concentration, mood and overall quality of life.
- Non-Invasive Options: Many of our treatment options, like oral appliance therapy, are non-invasive and easily integrated into your nightly routine.
