Sleep apnea, a condition marked by pauses in breathing during sleep, is more than just snoring. It's a silent threat to overall health that dentists are uniquely positioned to identify and manage through routine check-ups. By understanding the symptoms—such as daytime fatigue, gasping for air, or morning headaches—and utilizing advanced diagnostic tools and oral appliance therapy, dental professionals can improve sleep quality and reduce long-term risks like heart disease and diabetes.
