Snore No More!
SLEEP APPLIANCES PROVIDE A SAFE AND EASY SOLUTION TO SNORING AND SLEEP APNEA!
Snoring is more than just annoying; it can be dangerous too. Snoring can be a major cause of sleep interruptions and may even lead to sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation can:
- Be a contirbuting factor in traffic crashes and costly errors at work
- Affect mood, concentration andjudgment
- Cause long term health problems
Snoring can even ruin relationships. Studies found scientific evidence that snoring has a negative impact on the non-snoring mate. Researchers found that non-snoring partners:
- Wake up briefly more than 20 times per night
- Lose, on average, one hour of sleep each night
- Have fragmented, poor quality sleep
- Become sleep deprived and irritable
WHAT CAUSES SNORING?
Snoring is caused when the soft tissues of the throat, (soft palate,
uvula, tongue and tonsils), relax during sleep and block the passage
of air. As the air moves through the constricted area, the soft tissues
vibrate and rattle, producing the distinctive sound known as "snoring." Snoring
often gets worse from colds, allergies, use of drugs or alcohol,
smoking, being overweight and aging.
