Improve Your Sleep Quality For A Happier, Healthier Life

A restless night’s sleep here and there isn’t going to affect your life that much, but sustained sleep deprivation is an entirely different story. Sleep apnea is a chronic condition that disrupts your rest night after night, and it can have a profound impact on your health and quality of life.

Here are some of the symptoms you might experience as a sleep apnea sufferer:

  • Loud, persistent snoring each night and extreme fatigue each day
  • Waking up throughout the night because you can’t breathe
  • Headaches, dry mouth, and sore throat, especially in the morning
  • Difficulties with memory, focus, and concentration
  • Weight gain for no obvious reason
  • Bouts of irritability, unpredictable mood swings, or depression

This is only the beginning! Not only do these symptoms significantly disrupt your daily life, but untreated sleep apnea can also put you at risk for serious health problems like heart disease, heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure, and more.

When you visit Dr. Hening for an evaluation, he can screen you for signs of sleep apnea. He can then set you up with a trusted local physician for a more thorough sleep study and proper diagnosis. Based on your individual needs, your treatment plan will be designed by the physician, which may include a custom oral appliance we’ll design to help you breathe easily for a better night’s sleep. Either way, visiting Dr. Hening is the first step in getting you the deep, restorative sleep your body needs so you can live a happier, healthier life!

For help with your sleep apnea in Durango, call us today at 970-507-8391 or contact us online to request an appointment.

Common Questions About Sleep Apnea

Is sleep apnea dangerous?

Yes, it is! Not only can sleep apnea disrupt your normal sleep routine and leave you feeling exhausted during the day, it has also been linked to several major health concerns such as high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks, diabetes, and depression. Getting treatment now could help you feel better and live a longer, more fulfilling life.

Who treats sleep apnea?

We’ll work closely with a trusted local physician to get you a proper sleep apnea diagnosis, then they will design your treatment plan accordingly. It could include using a custom oral appliance we’ll fit you for to help keep your airway open while you sleep. Some patients also benefit from using a CPAP machine, which helps maintain a steady stream of air through your air passages.

What are common sleep apnea symptoms?

Knowing what to look for is the first step toward treatment. Common sleep apnea symptoms include waking up feeling tired after plenty of sleep, loud snoring, grogginess, inability to concentrate, poor performance at school or work, morning headaches and dry mouth, unexplained weight gain, irritability, mood swings, and depression. If you notice any of these symptoms, contact us now for an evaluation.
