Snoring & Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome

While snoring is a taboo topic and nobody wants to admit to doing it, roughly 30% of the population snores! And while snoring in its benign form (yes, Benign Snoring) doesn't cause any medical problems for the person who snores, it can wreck havoc on the bed partners' rest and their sanity. It is not uncommon for the bed partner to move out of the bedroom just to be able to get some rest.

Some people suffer from Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (or UARS for short). These patients have not yet developed sleep apnea, but they are on their way.

People who suffer from UARS or from Benign Snoring are more sleepy during the day. This sleepiness cuts into their productivity and their social life. It may very well cause a safety concern for the general public. Follow this link to learn more about Snoring and UARS.

Treatment for these patients involves an oral appliance designed to minimize the airway resistance and reduce the snoring. It is important to realize the snoring and UARS do not get better without the proper therapy. To schedule your consultation follow this link.
