Snoring

Snoring is defined as a partial blockage of the airway and can have serious health risks as well as social implications between partners. When snoring lasts 10 seconds or more, this can lead to Obstructive Sleep Hypopnea.

 

Make Appointment
In more serious cases, there may be a complete blockage of the airway (Obstructive Sleep Apnea). Both of these conditions may lead to a decrease in oxygen and an increase in carbon dioxide in the blood, causing the heart rate and breathing rate to increase. It may also cause frequent wake-ups, affecting the quality of sleep.
 

The consequences of this condition may cause:

  • Increase of blood pressure
  • Increased risk of heart attack
  • Increased risk of stroke
  • Increased obesity
  • Increased insulin resistance
  • Increased risk of motor vehicle accidents
  • Accidents at work
  • Poor memory & concentration
  • Depression
  • Decreased quality of life
  • Reduced sex drive
  • Compromised immune system
