What Causes Snoring?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Snoring is the sound created by the vibration of tissue as air passes through the airway. When you sleep, your throat muscles relax and the airway becomes more narrow. The more obstructed your airway is, the louder you’ll snore.
While snoring is a common issue, it can cause a significant disturbance and take a toll on even your most personal relationships. Excessive snoring can trigger resentment, intimacy problems, and even separation due to one partner’s snoring.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][us_single_image image=”1365″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row color_scheme=”alternate” el_class=”reverse-children”][vc_column][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][us_single_image image=”1452″ align=”center”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Loud snoring is one of the most common indications of a serious condition called sleep apnea. However, not everyone who snores suffers from the disorder. Additional symptoms of sleep apnea include irritability, daytime fatigue, difficulty concentrating, reduced libido, and more.
If you’ve noticed any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from sleep apnea. Taking a sleep study is the only way to get a proper diagnosis and receive the quality care you need. These tests can be administered overnight at a sleep clinic or in the comfort of your own home.[/vc_column_text][us_btn text=”Learn More” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Ftexasdentalsleepservices.com%2Fsleep-apnea-treatments%2F|||”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”2/3″ offset=”vc_col-sm-offset-2″][vc_column_text]
Effective Snoring Solutions
Here at Texas Dental Sleep Services, our team of providers offer solutions for snoring, sleep apnea, and facial pain to provide the relief you deserve. We feature several treatments depending on your unique needs, such as CPAP therapy and oral appliances.
When fitted correctly, CPAP is an effective method to treat snoring and sleep apnea. It’s a machine that works by supplying constant air pressure through a mask while you sleep. CPAP must be worn every night and removed each time you get up.
If you’re unhappy with CPAP, we offer a quieter, more convenient alternative with oral appliances. These devices are comfortable, silent, and easily portable. Oral appliances are a great way to tackle snoring and sleep apnea symptoms, allowing you and your partner to get a good night’s rest.[/vc_column_text][us_btn text=”Learn More” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Ftexasdentalsleepservices.com%2Fsleep-apnea-treatments%2Fcpap-alternatives%2F|||”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row us_bg_overlay_color=”#ebebeb”][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Frequently Asked Questions
[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=”Are snoring and sleep apnea related?” tab_id=”1600201173229-658fe1bb-5dfc”][vc_column_text]While snoring is one of the most noticeable symptoms of sleep apnea, not everyone who snores has sleep apnea. If you snore, we recommend taking a sleep test to make sure your snoring isn’t a sign of sleep apnea.
Even if you don’t have sleep apnea, our dentists can help relieve your snoring with a convenient oral appliance. Snoring can affect your relationship with your partner and drive them to seek a different place to sleep, so it’s crucial to get treatment. [/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Where does snoring come from?” tab_id=”1600201173266-4fff963a-3a71″][vc_column_text]Snoring is often the result of excess tissue in and around your throat, compressing your airway. The air trying to pass through the constricted airway while you’re asleep can cause snoring.
While snoring isn’t always serious, it can be detrimental to your relationship and is a potential sign of sleep apnea. Sleep apnea can lead to life-threatening health conditions, so it’s important to make sure you don’t have it if you snore. [/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Can snoring be stopped?” tab_id=”1600201204493-3d452635-471f”][vc_column_text]Yes, many people can stop their snoring with the help of treatment. Convenient oral appliances move your jaw forward while you sleep to keep your airway open, allowing you to sleep silently. There are also some lifestyle changes you can make to help stop your snoring.
Some of these lifestyle changes include losing weight, stopping the use of sedatives before bed, and quitting smoking. We recommend making these changes with the guidance of a professional and also alongside other snoring treatments.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Can snoring give you a sore throat?” tab_id=”1600201220308-b4096ccc-4d1c”][vc_column_text]Yes! Waking up with a sore throat throughout the night is one of the most common symptoms of snoring. It’s also likely that you may experience a dry mouth and oftentimes, a headache. But snoring can also be a sign of a more serious condition called sleep apnea.
This sleep disorder can lead to further health complications if left untreated. These include heart attacks, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, and more. Fortunately, a sleep study can properly diagnose your condition and help you get the treatment you need ⎼ whether you suffer from sleep apnea or not.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”5/6″ offset=”vc_col-md-offset-2 vc_col-md-8 vc_col-sm-offset-1″][vc_column_text]
