Snoring is a very serious issue and if it goes untreated can lead to severe health problems. In fact, snoring is directly related to heart disease, high blood pressure, impotence in men, and depression. Our sleep dentists provide a non-invasive treatment called NightLase, which is safe and proven effective. This advanced laser procedure tightens the tissues inside your mouth and throat to improve airflow, thereby eliminating snoring and decreasing obstructive sleep apnea. Unlike MAD and CPAP mouthpieces, there is no downtime required for this painless laser snoring reduction treatment.
What Is NightLase?
The NightLase TM procedure is a non-invasive laser snoring reduction treatment that uses Fotona’s LightWalker Er:YAG dental laser in smooth mode to warm, stimulate, strengthen, tighten and shrink the tissue in the back of the mouth. This makes the air passages wider and alleviates snoring and moderate obstructive sleep apnea symptoms. During the laser treatment, the patient feels a warm sensation in the mouth but no discomfort or pain is experienced.
How Effective is CPAP for Sleep Apnea and Snoring
The results are visible immediately and a course of three treatment sessions, performed at about 3-week intervals, will yield significant improvement in snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. NightLase is painless, fast and easy to perform compared with other invasive surgical procedures for snoring and sleep apnea and patients can resume daily activities immediately following their appointment.
