Skip the CPAP With a Simpler Sleep Apnea Solution in Bloomington

Sleep apnea causes repeated pauses in breathing while you sleep. Each time this happens, your brain briefly wakes you to restart your breathing — often without you remembering. These interruptions can occur hundreds of times a night, preventing deep, restful sleep and putting stress on your body. Over time, untreated sleep apnea increases your risk of serious health issues, including depression, diabetes, heart disease, and dementia.

The most common form, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), happens when the muscles in your throat relax during sleep and soft tissue blocks your airway. A CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machine is often prescribed to keep the airway open by pushing air through a mask. However, many patients find CPAP therapy difficult due to the mask, noise, or discomfort.

As an alternative, Dr. Weddell will assess if you are a good candidate for oral sleep appliance. These small devices fit comfortably in your mouth and:

  • Work by shifting the resting position of your lower jaw to keep your airway open

  • Allows you to remain asleep long enough to enjoy deep, rejuvenating rest

  • Doesn’t require electricity, batteries, or any other power source
  • Is much easier to transport and use while traveling than a CPAP

  • Fits comfortably in your mouth, much like a sports mouthguard

  • Is less distracting for both you and your bed partner

If you suspect you have sleep apnea, call Weddell Dental today to schedule a consultation. We’ll assess your needs and create a treatment plan that helps you sleep better, feel more energized, and protect your long-term health. Don’t wait to get effective sleep apnea treatment in Bloomington, MN.

Common Questions About Sleep Apnea

What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea occurs when the tongue and other soft tissues in your throat relax and temporarily block your airway. Your breathing will be interrupted until your brain signals your body to wake up and take in more oxygen. You take a few normal breaths before dozing off to sleep once more. This cycle can repeat itself dozens of times an hour throughout the night.
One common result of sleep apnea is excessive fatigue during the day. This makes it tough to concentrate or focus on tasks. Studies have linked it to sleepiness while driving, which can obviously be dangerous. In addition, research shows that sleep apnea leads to increased incidence of high blood pressure, diabetes, and other health problems.
A CPAP machine is often prescribed to help sleep apnea sufferers. It works by blowing a constant stream of air through the air passages via a mask. However, many people have trouble getting used to this therapy. As an excellent alternative, Dr. Weddell can have a sleep appliance made for you that fits comfortably in your mouth and moves your lower jaw forward a bit to help keep your airway open.
CPAP machines do produce some noise, which can be annoying to you and your bed partner. Silence is just one of the advantages of treating sleep apnea with a mouthguard instead of a CPAP. Most people also find it easier to adjust to wearing a mouthguard and more comfortable. In addition, you can easily transport a mouthguard by simply putting it into a purse or pocket.
