Snoring Appliance   Guide

My dentist needed to do surgery, so I was put to sleep and the doctor told me that I had some breathing problems. What’s happening is I’ll stop breathing for a bit, then when my body realizes it, I’ll gasp for air by reflex. It happened five times during an hour long surgery and he said it may happen 50 times during a night. Happens when awake sometimes too. Also I snore like nobody’s business.
He says I should see a doctor about this. What kind of doctor should I see?

You should ask your regular doctor to refer you to a sleep lab to have an overnight sleep study done. They will monitor you and will be able to tell what problems you are having. Then you’ll come back one more night for them to test to see what pressure your C-PAP would need to be.

You are risking your health each time you sleep, so please get checked soon.

I have apnea and currently use a cpap machine. My issue it that I snore loudly and always have even before I had apnea. It has put a damper on my personal life and I am afraid to get involved with someone because of my loud snoring. There are so many things out in the medical world that doctors can do for people with concerns about their body etc, but I don’t hear of anything but nasal strips out their for people who snore. Is there any medical procedure that can help me?
My question refers to sleep overs where I don’t want to use my cpap machine or naps while other people are around

Check with your Doctor that gave you your cpap machine first. I’m thinking that if your cpap is working correctly, that you should not be snoring at all. You better check with your cpap Dr. to be sure.

If all else fails, You could see an Ear nose and Throat specialist(ENT). There is a surgery they do for snoring. That is the type of Doctor to see an ENT. Also, They may have a remedy to where you won’t need surgery. If it is your sinuses, the same type of Dr. can help you. ENT

I have used ear plus, taken a sleeping pill (which I don’t want to do every night), turned him over (which doesn’t always stop his snoring) and even gone into the other bedroom to catch a few zzz’s. I’m going to look into those nose strips advertised next. Surgery right now is not an option. Help!

If he is snoring, he could have a sleep disorder. Snoring is a sign of sleep problems. Sleep problems keep one from reaching all stages of sleep. Failure to reach all stages can result in many health problems including but not limited to weight gain, excessive daytime fatigue, headaches, heart problems, lung problems, brain damage and hypertension just to name a few.

The point is that he may not be getting adequate sleep, and the snoring may indicate that, and you may not be getting adequate sleep because of him snoring. Some of the therapies can stop the snoring.

You probably know at least one person who snores. No matter your spouse, friend, relative or parents, snoring is probably present in your life, but you dismiss it as a trivial problem. People make fun of it and may treat it as insignificant, but snoring could be diagnosed as a major health problem. The human tissue in our trachea and lungs loosen as we age, therefore snoring occurs more frequently and with a greater magnitude (louder) with time. When the problem goes out of control, snorers may sound like loud motorbikes or chainsaws (literally!). So, the sooner you stop snoring, the better!

This condition is usually called sleep apnea. Excessive snoring not only creates emotional distress for spouse and family members, but may also indicate major health problems such as high blood pressure, depression, and others. Common causes of excessive snoring include alcohol or medications, but other unlikely factors such as oversized pillows may also be the cause. Obesity, sleeping on your back and lack of muscle tone are also cited. There are some less common reasons such as abnormalities in the nose. Snoring in children is also present, with enlarged tonsils being one of the leading causes.

Putting on weight may be one of the causes of snoring. Due to increased pressure and less room for air to move in your airways, snoring sound may be produced at night when the muscles are relaxed. A good way to reduce this is to eat healthily and maintain a good active lifestyle. There are many cures for snoring. Simple ones include home techniques or over-the counter medication. For more severe snoring problems, a professional surgery may be required to rid the problem. If you are someone who snores excessively and constantly gets complaints from friends and loved ones, look at your lifestyle very carefully first. Try considering taking up basic habits such as exercising and eating well.

If snoring persists, see an expert at a hospital for advice. Make surgery only your last option. Most snoring problems can be cured not with medication, but correctly tuning your lifestyle to healthily.
