Snoring Treatment
We appreciate your confidence in us at TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Raleigh-Durham for your patient’s needs.
Understanding Snoring Treatment
Snoring is commonly caused by airway obstruction during sleep, often linked to the relaxation of the jaw, tongue, and soft tissues in the throat. Dental-based snoring treatment uses custom-fitted oral appliances that gently reposition the lower jaw forward, increasing upper airway space and reducing tissue vibration. Research published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine confirms that mandibular advancement devices significantly reduce snoring intensity and frequency in appropriately selected patients.
“Oral appliance therapy is an effective treatment option for primary snoring and mild to moderate sleep-disordered breathing.”
Clinical studies also demonstrate improvements in sleep quality, partner satisfaction, and daytime alertness following oral appliance therapy. A review in the Journal of Dental Sleep Medicine highlights that custom dental devices offer a comfortable, non-invasive alternative to CPAP for snoring patients without severe sleep apnoea. Treatment is carefully tailored following a comprehensive assessment of jaw position, airway anatomy, and sleep symptoms.
“Custom oral appliances provide a patient-friendly approach with high compliance rates compared to traditional therapies.”
If snoring is affecting your health, relationships, or quality of life, professional evaluation is essential.
