Sleep Apnea Treatment - Greater San Antonio
Sleep Soundly at Last
Enjoy Healthier, Happier Days and Nights
Sleep gives your body an opportunity to recuperate from stress and other detrimental effects of the day. Just because you’re getting sleep, however, doesn’t mean you’re getting quality sleep. Snoring is one common reason. It doesn’t only create noisy nights, it indicates that your breathing is compromised. Snoring often occurs when the soft tissues of your mouth collapse onto and obstruct your airway, often causing you to repeatedly stop breathing every night. The American Sleep Apnea Association reports that an estimated 22 million Americans have sleep apnea. To help you overcome this harmful habit, our Elite Dental & Implant Center team provides safe, comfortable, and effective sleep apnea treatment in Greater San Antonio Area.
