TMJ Snoring

Understand the Connection Between TMJ & Snoring

Snoring is a common condition where the airway becomes partially obstructed during sleep, causing the tissues in the throat to vibrate as air passes through. This results in the characteristic sound of snoring. There are many reasons why you might snore, including nasal congestion, obesity, alcohol consumption, or even the position in which you sleep!

In some cases, snoring is a sign of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a more serious condition where the airway becomes completely blocked, leading to repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep. This can cause fragmented sleep, lower oxygen levels, and put significant strain on the heart.

Why Addressing Snoring is Important

Snoring isn’t just a nuisance; it can impact your overall health and well-being. Chronic snoring can lead to disrupted sleep, daytime fatigue, and strained relationships with loved ones. In more severe cases, untreated snoring may signal underlying health conditions, such as obstructive sleep apnea, which requires medical attention.

Effective Snoring Solutions

Treatments for snoring depend on its underlying cause and severity. Simple lifestyle changes, such as sleeping on your side, losing weight, or avoiding alcohol before bed, can help reduce snoring. For persistent snoring or cases linked to sleep apnea, advanced solutions like oral appliances, CPAP therapy, or lifestyle modifications can provide relief and improve your sleep quality.

If you have sleep apnea this can have significant impacts on your health. Chronic snoring coupled with untreated sleep apnea can lead to increased risks of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and why you feel tired even when you go to bed early.

These conditions can also affect cognitive function, mood, and overall quality of life. Addressing snoring and sleep apnea through lifestyle changes, medical devices, or surgery can improve sleep quality and reduce associated health risks.

    Beautiful experience. My third child, was my first with ties. Dr. Kaplan took his time showing me images of my sons ties and explaining them to me so I understood them more. He also made the atmosphere very comfortable! We had all 3 ties released (tongue, lip, and cheek) done in about 10 minutes. Dr. Kaplan checked in with me about 5 minutes after the procedure and explained everything to me about follow up appointments with lactation and chiro and how to massage my babies mouth post-op. Highly recommend for infant tie issues!

    Dr. David is by far one of the most compassionate dentists I have ever met. Dr. David and her team have a thirst for knowledge and are constantly furthering their education. I would highly recommend the TMJ & Sleep Centre of New England if you have any TMJ/Sleep needs.

    I have only been for initial exam and consultation, so this review is for that. I love the office. They have great technology and a nice ambiance if you can believe it. Pretty rare to find a dentist with nice views but I had beautiful trees to look at outside the window while I sat in the chair. The tech and dentist were so caring and really listened to me and took their time to make me feel at ease. I have had some less than savory and even traumatic experiences at other dentists , I can say that I feel very comfortable and trusting with Dr David. I think she is a brilliant doctor who really cares about people and looks at the whole picture , not just your teeth. I’m happy I found her and ready to start my treatment plan. This is by far not the cheapest dentist but I only have one set of teeth, so trusting myself to the best.
