How do I know if I have sleep apnea?

Common symptoms of sleep apnea include loud snoring, gasping for air during sleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, and difficulty concentrating. If you suspect you have sleep apnea, schedule a consultation with Petrie, Storer & Associates D.D.S. for an evaluation.

Are oral appliances effective for sleep apnea?

Yes, oral appliances are highly effective for treating mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. They work by repositioning the jaw and tongue to keep the airway open during sleep, reducing snoring and improving breathing.
