NIGHTLASE™ – LASER TREATMENT FOR SNORING
The Best Night Lase Snoring Apnea Laser Treatment in Prince George BC
NightLase is a laser treatment that targets snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. It is a non-invasive procedure that aims to improve the airway by tightening the tissues in the throat and reducing the vibrations that cause snoring and breathing disruptions during sleep.
What causes snoring?
Snoring occurs when air is not able to move freely through your nose and mouth during sleep. This is due to a narrowing of your airway, which causes the tissues to vibrate and make an audible sound. In extreme cases the airway can become blocked which is known as obstructive sleep apnea. Many factors can contribute to snoring such as age, nasal and sinus problems, being overweight, alcohol, smoking, medications, and sleep posture.
What is the impact of snoring?
Snoring has consequences that can impact one’s sleep and their partner. Sleep deprivation, due to snoring, has a negative impact on health and quality of life. People that snore can experience tiredness, morning headaches, irritability, dry mouth, and relationship difficulties. Studies have also shown a link between snoring and an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
What are the treatment options?
Most treatments for snoring attempt to keep the breathing passage open, are as follows:
- Specially made dental appliances can be effective but rely on daily compliance.
- Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) systems are often used to help control sleep apnea and the snoring associated with it, however these devices can be very uncomfortable.
- There are surgical options available for correcting snoring which usually involve removal of tissue from the uvula and pharynx, but these surgeries are invasive and can result in a lengthy and unconformable recovery period following the surgery.
- Fotona NightLase – non- invasive laser procedure that reduces or eliminates snoring/apnea.
