Sleep apnoea is a sleep disorder characterised by repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep.
These interruptions, known as apnoeas, can last from a few seconds to minutes and may occur multiple times per hour. This condition can lead to fragmented sleep, poor sleep quality and daytime fatigue.
Left untreated, sleep apnea can have serious health consequences, including an increased risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and obesity. It can also lead to daytime sleepiness, affecting concentration and increasing the risk of accidents. Treating sleep apnea can significantly improve overall health and quality of life.
Common signs of sleep apnoea include loud snoring, episodes of stopped breathing during sleep and gasping for air. Many people with sleep apnoea experience excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, difficulty concentrating, and irritability.
If you or a loved one exhibits these symptoms, seeking medical advice is essential. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent the condition’s progression and improve sleep quality, overall health, and daily functioning.
At Dental Care Mt Eliza, we offer customised treatment plans for sleep apnoea, focusing on the use of Mandibular Repositioning Appliances (MRAs) or Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs). These devices are designed to keep the airway open during sleep by adjusting the jaw position.
Our preferred devices, such as Somnomed appliances, are effective, comfortable, and durable. We ensure that each appliance is tailored to your specific needs, providing you with the best possible outcome for improved sleep and health.
Mandibular Repositioning Appliances (MRAs) work by slightly repositioning the lower jaw to help keep the airway open during sleep. This prevents airway collapse, reducing snoring and the number of apnoea episodes.
MRAs are custom-fitted to ensure maximum comfort and effectiveness. Dental Care Mt Eliza uses advanced technology, such as ICAT scans, to create precise and effective appliances tailored to your anatomy.
Good candidates for sleep apnoea treatment with MRAs are individuals diagnosed with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea. MRAs are particularly beneficial for patients who prefer a non-invasive treatment option over CPAP therapy.
During your consultation at Dental Care Mt Eliza, our expert team will assess your condition, review your medical history, and determine if an MRA is the right solution for you. We aim to provide the most effective and comfortable treatment to improve sleep quality.
Improvements with sleep apnoea treatment can often be noticed within a few weeks of using the Mandibular Repositioning Appliance. Patients typically report reduced snoring, better sleep quality, and increased daytime alertness shortly after starting treatment.
Consistency in using the appliance as directed is key to achieving the best results. Our team at Dental Care Mt Eliza will work closely with you to ensure your treatment is effective and meets your individual needs.
