Sleep Apnea Treatment at Luxe Dental Arts
Sleep apnea is more than just snoring—it’s a serious sleep disorder that disrupts rest, drains energy, and affects overall health. At Luxe Dental Arts, we provide advanced, personalized treatments to help you breathe easier and enjoy restorative sleep once again.
If you experience loud snoring, daytime fatigue, or other signs of sleep apnea, our team will evaluate the underlying cause and offer effective, long-term solutions for relief.
Getting to Know Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly pauses and resumes throughout the night. These interruptions can happen dozens—or even hundreds—of times, preventing the deep, restorative sleep your body needs.
There are two main types of sleep apnea:
- Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): Caused by a physical blockage of the airway, often due to relaxed throat muscles or excess soft tissue.
- Central Sleep Apnea (CSA): A less common form that occurs when the brain does not send the correct signals to the muscles that control breathing.
Common symptoms include:
- Loud or frequent snoring
- Choking or gasping while asleep
- Waking with headaches
- Persistent daytime tiredness or drowsiness
- Difficulty focusing or memory issues
- Irritability, mood swings, or feelings of depression
Untreated sleep apnea can lead to serious health issues, including elevated blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other potentially life-threatening conditions.
Why Maintaining a Healthy Airway Matters
At Luxe Dental Arts, we focus on more than just the symptoms—we take an airway-centered approach to dentistry, treating sleep apnea at its core.
Your airway includes the nose, mouth, throat, and surrounding structures. When any part of this system becomes obstructed, narrow, or misaligned, it can disrupt airflow during sleep. Ensuring your airway remains clear and properly aligned is essential for lasting relief from sleep-related breathing issues.
We assess:
- Narrow dental arches or crowded teeth
- Tongue position and soft tissue alignment
- Enlarged tonsils or adenoids
- Nasal blockages or chronic allergies
- Jaw development, alignment, and oral posture
By identifying these structural concerns, we can develop a customized treatment plan that addresses your unique needs and provides more effective, long-term solutions.
