At Northern Virginia Sleep Solutions, our experienced dentist and sleep specialist, Dr. Hye Park, offers non-invasive snoring, teeth grinding and sleep apnea treatment near Falls Church, VA.
Sleep apnea affects millions of people, with most experiencing obstructive sleep apnea or OSA. This condition occurs when the airway is blocked during sleep, causing non-breathing events throughout the night. Sleep apnea can cause headaches, fatigue, brain fog, and snoring and may result in serious health risks such as stroke, heart attack, type 2 diabetes and more.
At Northern Virginia Sleep Solutions, we offer effective sleep apnea treatments at our clinic near Falls Church, VA. Our dental sleep team can provide alternative treatments to CPAP machines, which can be intrusive and uncomfortable for many people. Our sleep apnea treatments include oral appliance therapy and laser treatments that can control sleep apnea and relieve your symptoms.
Solutions for Snoring and Teeth Grinding
If you grind your teeth at night (bruxism), you could ruin your smile or harm your jaw joint. Bruxism can cost plenty if it damages your teeth or temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We provide bruxism treatment using oral appliance therapy, which can protect your teeth while you sleep. These comfortable oral devices keep the teeth from touching, preventing wear or fractures that can impact your teeth from grinding or jaw clenching.
Our customized oral appliances can also reduce snoring for a quieter night of sleep for everyone in your household. The oral devices adjust the lower jaw, shifting it forward to open the airway and minimize snoring. Our NightLase® laser treatment can also reduce loud snoring by tightening the soft palate, reducing vibration and noise while breathing during sleep.
