What Is Sleep Apnea?

In this video, Dr. Vahid Bashi explains sleep apnea and the available treatment options based on the severity of each patient’s case.

Sleep apnea is a disorder that significantly impacts the quality of sleep, characterized by interruptions in breathing during sleep. These interruptions can stem from various causes, including issues with muscle function where the tongue may fall back and obstruct the airway when lying down, malocclusion of teeth where the teeth do not align properly preventing the mouth from closing correctly, or complications related to the nose, sinuses, or tonsils.

Given the diverse causes of sleep apnea, treatment approaches are tailored to address the specific underlying issue. There are various appliances and methods available to assist patients in managing their condition, depending on the root cause of their sleep apnea.

To accurately diagnose and treat sleep apnea, a personalized consultation is essential. This allows for a thorough evaluation of the individual’s condition to identify the primary cause of their sleep apnea and to determine the most effective treatment plan. If you’re experiencing symptoms of sleep apnea, scheduling a consultation is a critical step towards finding relief and improving your sleep quality.
