What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder marked by pauses in breathing or shallow breathing at night. These can happen numerous times an hour, interrupting your sleep and cutting down on the supply of oxygen to your brain and other organs. The most prevalent form is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) where the airway is clogged most often by the soft tissue at the back of the throat.
The Risks of Untreated Sleep Apnea
There is an increased risk that it may lead to a range of serious health problems if untreated like-
- High Blood Pressure - The risk of hypertension is increased by sleep apnea.
- Heart Disease - Heart attacks and other cardiovascular issues may be exacerbated by it.
- Type 2 Diabetes - Sleep apnea is linked to insulin resistance and an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
- Daytime Fatigue - Chronic sleep deprivation leads to excessive daytime sleepiness. It affects concentration and performance.
- Increased Risk of Accidents - Fatigue during the day raises the possibility of accidents when using machines or driving.
- Memory and Cognitive Problems - Sleep apnea can impair memory and cognitive function.

Sleep Apnea Treatment Options at Capital Dental Clinic
At Capital Dental Clinic we offer effective and personalised treatment options for sleep apnea :
- Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT) - Custom-fitted oral appliances that are worn during sleep to keep the airway open. By shifting the lower jaw and tongue, these devices keep them from falling down the neck.
- CPAP Therapy - While we primarily focus on OAT, we can provide guidance and support for patients using Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machines. It delivers a steady stream of air through a mask to keep the airway open. We can work in conjunction with your physician if CPAP is deemed necessary.
- Lifestyle Modifications - Recommendations for weight loss, avoiding alcohol and sedatives before bed, and sleeping on your side.
What to Expect During Your Sleep Apnea Treatment
- Consultation and Evaluation - In addition to discussing your symptoms and reviewing your medical history, our skilled dentist will examine your mouth and throat in detail.
- Sleep Study Referral - We may recommend a sleep study to confirm the diagnosis of sleep apnea and determine its severity.
- Treatment Planning - Based on your evaluation and sleep study results, we will develop a personalised treatment plan to address your specific needs.
- Oral Appliance Fitting - We will take imprints of your teeth to make a specially fitted oral appliance if OAT is the suggested course of treatment.
- Follow-Up Care - Regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
