sleep apnea

Sleep Apnea is a serious condition that affects your sleep and general health. Sleep apnea begins as interrupted breathing during sleep, and this will lead to fatigue, snoring, and possibly long-term health risks. Shan Dental offers treatment for sleep apnea by Dr. Megha Pathak with customized non-invasive options.

What is Sleep Apnea?

The characteristics include recurrent pauses of breathing during sleep. The common form is the Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), which usually occurs when throat muscles relax and block the airways. Symptoms that have been established are loud snoring, the presence of a choking or gasping sound, daytime sleepiness, and confusion.

How We Can Help

Dr. Megha Pathak offers a host of treatments aimed at managing the condition and consequently enhancing your sleeping quality:

1. Oral Appliances

For mild to moderate sleep apnea, a custom-made oral appliance can advance your jaw forward to keep the airway open during sleep. This non-invasive solution is a comfort for many patients who cannot tolerate CPAP.

2. CPAP Therapy

For more serious ones, CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy, through a mask, continuously administers air that keeps the airway open. Dr. Megha will determine the most suitable treatment for you.

3. Lifestyle Changes

Lifestyle changes, including losing weight, sleeping on your side, and changing your sleeping habits, are also useful in alleviating sleep apnea symptoms.

4. Surgical Alternatives

In some cases, surgery may be advised to address structural anomalies in the throat. Dr. Megha will assess your needs and refer you to a specialist if necessary.
