Have people told you that you snore loudly at night? Do you wake up with headaches or find yourself dragging by the afternoon, struggling to stay focused? These symptoms may be signs of a sleep disorder called sleep apnea.

At Surf City Dental, we’ve partnered with the Sleep Center located right here in the same building to provide convenient, effective care for sleep apnea.

Together, our team offers personalized treatment designed to help you breathe easier, sleep better, and wake up feeling refreshed.

 

The Importance of a Good Night's Rest

Getting restful, rejuvenating sleep is critical for your health and well-being. Effectively managing sleep apnea can deliver the following benefits and improvements to your quality of life.

Reduced Risk of Health Issues

Sleep apnea contributes to many chronic health concerns, such as heart disease or failure, depression, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, and frequent headaches or migraines.

Reduced Snoring

Treating sleep apnea can reduce or even eliminate loud snoring during the night, resulting in a better night's rest for your sleep partner.

Enhanced Mood and Energy

When you feel rested, you have more energy, which improves your mood and can reduce irritability and depression.

At Surf City Dental, in partnership with the Sleep Center, we focus on practical, effective treatments to help you breathe easier and sleep safely. Treatments are personalized based on the severity of your condition and your lifestyle.

 Comprehensive Sleep Evaluation

We begin with a thorough assessment of your symptoms, sleep patterns, and oral anatomy. This may include home sleep testing or collaboration with a sleep physician to ensure an accurate diagnosis.

Custom Oral Appliances

For mild to moderate sleep apnea, we create comfortable, custom-fitted oral devices that:

  • Reposition your jaw and tongue to keep your airway open

  • Reduce snoring

  • Improve nighttime breathing

These appliances are worn during sleep and are a non-invasive, effective alternative to CPAP machines for many patients.

Collaboration with Sleep Specialists

For severe cases or complex conditions, we work closely with sleep physicians to coordinate care, ensuring the safest and most effective treatment plan.

Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustment

Sleep apnea treatment isn’t “set it and forget it.” We monitor your progress, adjust appliances as needed, and ensure your sleep quality and health continue to improve over time.
