Sleep Soundly Again: Sleep Apnoea Appliances at With U Dental
Tired of feeling tired? Sleep apnoea can turn every night into a struggle and every morning into a battle with fatigue.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. At With U Dental, we offer sleep apnoea appliances designed to help you breathe easy and sleep better, so you can wake up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day.
Say goodbye to restless nights and hello to a healthier, more energised you.
What is this treatment?
Sleep apnoea appliances are custom-made devices designed to treat obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), a condition where your airway becomes partially or completely blocked during sleep, causing you to stop breathing temporarily. This interruption can happen multiple times throughout the night, leading to poor sleep quality, daytime fatigue, and other health issues.
At With U Dental, we provide mandibular advancement devices (MADs), which are worn in the mouth like a sports mouthguard. These appliances work by gently shifting your lower jaw forward, keeping your airway open and reducing the number of apnoea episodes you experience during the night. They’re a simple, non-invasive solution that can make a significant difference in your quality of sleep and overall health.
Problems this treatment solves
Sleep apnoea appliances can help with a variety of issues related to sleep apnoea, including:
- Interrupted Sleep: Sleep apnoea can cause frequent wake-ups throughout the night, preventing you from getting the deep, restorative sleep you need.
- Daytime Fatigue: The lack of quality sleep can lead to persistent tiredness and difficulty concentrating during the day.
- Snoring: Sleep apnoea is often accompanied by loud snoring, which can disrupt both your sleep and your partner’s.
- Health Risks: Untreated sleep apnoea is linked to a range of health problems, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes. Sleep apnoea appliances can reduce these risks by improving your breathing and sleep quality.
- Quality of Life: By addressing the root cause of your sleep issues, these appliances can help improve your mood, energy levels, and overall quality of life.
