Sleep Apnea Treatment

Dr. Mathew and our Creekview Family Dentistry team take sleep apnea very seriously, as it can greatly affect your daily life. It causes interruptions in your breathing due to blockage of your airway, typically because the soft tissue in the back of your throat collapses as you slumber. This can make you feel pretty miserable when you’re awake and eventually lead to major health issues if left untreated.

Our Lewisville, TX dentist know how to combat sleep apnea so you can get your best night’s sleep and experience improved overall health. Call us today at [phone] to learn about our sleep apnea treatment.

How We Can Solve Sleep Apnea Issues

First, we need to determine you are suffering from sleep apnea. We will conduct a screening at our Lewisville, TX office, which can be confirmed by a diagnosis from your doctor once you’ve undergone a sleep study. If you don’t have a primary care physician, we’re happy to refer you to a doctor we trust.

If left untreated, sleep apnea can result in high blood pressure, strokes, heart failure, diabetes, and other serious issues. You should look into having a sleep study conducted if you’re experiencing any of the following:

• Loud snoring
• Insomnia
• Tossing and turning
• Waking up with shortness of breath
• Drowsiness and/or lack of energy during the day
• Headaches upon awakening
• Forgetfulness
• Mood swings

If you are dealing with sleep apnea, we will create a custom and comfortable oral appliance, which shifts your jaw so your air passage isn’t blocked while you sleep. It’s a simple solution that can make a world of difference.

Dr. Mathew cares about long-term dental health and demonstrates that concern through membership in different professional organizations like American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, Texas Dental Association and Dallas County Dental Society.
