In these instances, the help of a trusted loved one can help to bring this issue to your knowledge. If your partner or child has mentioned that your snoring is worrying them, take their concerns seriously. Chronic obstructive sleep apnea is a condition that can lead to serious and potentially life-threatening complications.

Bruxism is another form of nightly damage that can occur. This sleep disorder is concerned with the grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw. When this action goes unchecked throughout the night, the damage can be direct and targeted toward one area. This specific area might suffer extreme overuse and cause imbalance in your smile. At Leibowitz Dental in Astoria, NY, we offer a simple non-surgical option in a sleep apnea appliance. These sleep appliances protect your smile by keeping your airway open and your enamel from colliding overnight! (more…)
