LASER SLEEP APNEA TREATMENT

After all, dentists are highly knowledgeable in treating conditions that involve the musculature of the throat and oral cavity. Dentists are also trained on the lasers used in this form of procedure.

Quality Sleep
Why Sleep Apnea Dangerous?
In addition to the heightened risk of heart attack, sleep apnea disrupts your natural sleep cycles (known as circadian rhythms). When you miss out on quality sleep, your brain and body undergo detrimental chemical changes that can compound over time. These changes can result in several cardiac and respiratory issues.
Many medical journals have found direct correlations between sleep apnea and increased risks of heart attack, stroke, and premature death. The more severe, the more severe the risk. Roughly 1 in 20 adults suffer from sleep apnea, while the rates among children may be even higher. Quality sleep is essential to proper development and living in both children and adults.
Lack of quality sleep, sometimes referred to as “reparative sleep,” can harm your concentration, productivity, and focus. According to research led by Sudhansu Chokroverty of Seton Hall University, lack of reparative sleep can lead to health conditions such as type II diabetes, stroke, memory problems, depression, heart failure, high blood pressure, and coronary artery disease.
Sleep better. Live better. If you suffer from sleep apnea, Carpe Diem Dental Spa is here to help you get a great night’s sleep and improve your overall health.

Frequently Asked Questions about sleep apnea Fotona LASER-NightLase®
How does NightLase® work for sleep apnea?
NightLase® utilizes Nd: YAG and Er: YAG lasers to perform laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty (LAUP), tightening mucosal tissues at the back of the mouth to reduce snoring.
What is the procedure's minimally invasive nature?
NightLase® is an outpatient procedure, that ensures minimal invasiveness during the treatment.
Why does NightLase® focus on tightening tissues?
The procedure targets over-relaxed tissues that, when sagging, constrict the airway during sleep, leading to abnormal breathing patterns.
How many sessions are typically required?
Most patients need three sessions spaced over a month and a half for optimal results. Yearly maintenance may be necessary after the initial three sessions.
How effective is NightLase® in reducing snoring?
Studies show an average 85% reduction in snoring, with 85% of patients expressing high satisfaction with the results.
What causes snoring and complications during sleep?
Relaxed tissues, particularly the soft palate, can obstruct airflow, leading to complications in breathing and audible snoring.
Does snoring worsen over time?
Yes, snoring can worsen over time as it loosens tissues, increasing the severity and frequency of the condition.
Can snoring lead to interrupted breathing during sleep?
Yes, sagging tissues can narrow the airway, causing interrupted breathing and potential risks associated with sleep apnea.
Is NightLase® effective in minimizing health risks related to sleep apnea?
Yes, NightLase® is generally effective in minimizing health risks associated with sleep apnea in most patients.
