New Haven CT Dentist, Dr. George Discher, Provides Alternative For Sleep Apnea Sufferers

Savin Dental Care and New Haven sleep apnea professional, Dr. George Discher DDS, are pleased to announce alternatives that address the symptoms of sleep apnea. Instead of using burdensome and expensive C-PAP machines to improve breathing and prevent apnea, the patients who consult with Dr. Discher use state-of-the-art dental appliances to adjust the alignment of the lower jaw, thus relieving symptoms.

Because of the negative health effects of this disorder, action must be taken to resolve the symptoms if a full level of wellness and health is enjoyed. Some of the symptoms that affect the functioning of a person with sleep apnea include fatigue, loss of cognition, irritability and poor resistance against disease. What is more frustrating for patients is that these symptoms may not be recognized by medical professionals as something stemming from sleep apnea.

While speaking to Dr. Discher, an interviewer drew out this statement about the technique, 'The device that is inserted into the rear of the mouth causes a minor realignment of the mandible (lower jaw). The pressure on the nerves of the area is relieved so that nerve impulses to and from the brain to all parts of the body are able to pass freely through the temporomandibular area.'

A dentist approaches sleep apnea from the standpoint of an orthodontic solution. A CPAP device doesn't have to be the only solution that provides relief. The unit is helpful for many patients, but it is not a solution for others, who find it cumbersome at best. By trying the dental appliance and determining whether or not the effects will be beneficial, patients don't need to spend money on something that doesn't work. The success rate is estimated to be about 90%.
