Phoenix, AZ Dentist Dr. Matthew Cavendish Offers Relief for Patients Suffering with Sleep Apnea

Sleep apnea is a serious affliction that affects approximately thirty million Americans.  Although sleep apnea is most common in men over forty, especially those who are overweight or who have high blood pressure, anyone can develop sleep apnea at any time in his or her life.  Many people who have sleep apnea aren’t fully aware of how it affects them and the impact it can have on so many other facets of their lives.  The effects of sleep apnea go far beyond snoring and can add up to serious health risks. Luckily, there is a unique and effective approach to treating and countering this condition. Specially trained dental professionals, like Phoneix, AZ’s Dr. Matthew J. Cavendish can help.

Sleep apnea dentistry from Dr. Cavendish has helped many patients overcome the need for a CPAP machine or enabled them to use it more efficiently.  Through the use of a simplistic, comfortable yet specialized night guard, Dr. Cavendish’s patients can sleep soundly and pleasantly, while still preventing the airway obstruction that results from sleep apnea.  Sleep apnea mouth guards are custom created for each patient and have been shown to be significantly more comfortable and easy to adjust to than a CPAP machine. In some cases sleep apnea sufferers who believed they’d have to undergo surgery were able to modify their condition for the better through the use of a sleep apnea night guards.

Phoenix, Arizona patients who have taken control over sleep apnea have gained freedom from the disruptive snoring, morning headaches, daytime drowsiness, depression, confusion, lethargy and discomfort that result from nightly respiratory obstruction.

Cavendish can help you determine if a custom sleep apnea mouth guard will be an effective replacement or supplement to your CPAP machine, and if it can be a realistic alternative to surgery.  Dr. Cavendish is also happy to work with patients who suspect they may have sleep apnea but aren’t sure.
