We Don’t Diagnose Sleep Apnea, but We Do Treat It
Snoring in Pasadena indicates you should have a sleep study done prior to treatment.
The steps to treating sleep apnea in Pasadena start with your primary care physician. Once you have talked with your physician about your concerns for sleep apnea it is necessary to set up an appointment, or referral, for a sleep study. When you complete a sleep study, it allows for sleep professionals to recognize where your sleep problems are coming from and if you have the disorder. Once you have completed these steps, my team and I can help you get the treatment you need in order to live with this sleep disorder comfortably. At Walnut Hill Dental Group we do not take sleep apnea lightly, and want to help you sleep through the night again while contributing to your life long health.

A MAD is a dental appliance that resembles a mouthguard and may be worn. It eliminates snoring and airway blockage by moving the tongue and jaw forward in the mouth.

Sleep Apnea Could Be Detrimental To Your Health
Treating sleep apnea in Pasadena is important, and should be taken care of right away.
Coming home after a long day to a comfortable bed to sleep in would normally be considered a relaxing activity, however, for those with untreated sleep apnea, that isn’t the case. Sleep apnea in Pasadena causes your sleep to be interrupted to the point where it isn’t even relaxing. In fact, you often wake up feeling like you didn’t get any sleep at all and significantly lacking rest. If you continue to have these issues with your sleep and leave them untreated, they could be seriously detrimental to your health, even causing early death. Some of the other problems that may develop with untreated sleep apnea include: stroke, diabetes, migraines, heart disease, depression, weight gain, reflux problems and more. Fortunately, at Walnut Hill Dental Group we have what you need to get the best treatment for sleep apnea in Pasadena. The C-pap, or continuous positive airway pressure, is a sleep apnea treatment that has been around for many years. The C-pap gets the job done, but it is often seen as an uncomfortable option for treatment, as it requires sleeping with a large mask. Our team at Walnut Hill Dental Group can discuss with you your options for treatment including the C-pap as well as C-pap alternatives. We offer alternatives to the C-pap in order to give you the best treatment options for your comfort. Don’t wait for your treatment, and let your sleep apnea situation become an emergency.
