Assessment of Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Elevated snoring could indicate more profound health issues. Our specialists collaborate with you to determine whether underlying sleep problems contribute to your snoring. This could be a sign of sleep apnea, a condition that disrupts breathing periodically during the night. With appropriate treatment, sleep apnea can be managed effectively.
Does your snoring need a doctor’s attention?
During your evaluation, your otolaryngologist conducts a comprehensive examination of nasal passages, mouth, throat, palate, and neck. In certain cases, a sleep study conducted in a controlled laboratory setting might be necessary to gauge the severity of snoring and its impact on overall well-being.
The Inspire Procedure
The Inspire system employs an implant to elevate the quality of sleep for individuals dealing with sleep apnea. Its standout feature lies in its customization, allowing activation and deactivation as required. By activating the Inspire device before sleep, your airways open gradually, and deactivating it is as easy as pressing a button upon awakening.
CPAP Prescription and Management
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices are worn during sleep to alleviate sleep apnea. At SFENTA, we assess your symptoms to determine device suitability. Additionally, we guide you in selecting the appropriate CPAP machine and offer maintenance advice to ensure maximum benefits.
Sleep Apnea Surgery
When non-surgical approaches prove insufficient for addressing sleep apnea, it is time to explore surgical interventions. SFENTA provides an array of safe and effective sleep apnea surgeries aimed at widening air passages for improved breathing.
We also offer implantable devices targeting sleep apnea symptoms through surgical means. Your doctor collaborates with you to identify the optimal treatment approach for your lifestyle.
Lifestyle Enhancements
Sometimes, your sleep specialist can assist in overcoming serious sleep problems with relatively simple lifestyle adjustments. For instance, altering your sleeping position from side to back or elevating the head of your bed slightly might suffice to curb snoring.
