To protect your health and your quality of life, you know you need a proper diagnosis to get the treatment you need. This involves a sleep study that is often performed at a local center; however, you are not comfortable if you are not in your own bed and you do not need the inconvenience. What if you could get the sleep study you need at home? Now you can. Weatherford Dental Sleep Medicine is offering at-home testing for sleep apnea in Weatherford.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Why Do I Need a Sleep Study?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weatherfordsleep.com\/what-is-sleep-apnea.html\">Sleep apnea<\/a> is a serious condition that affects at least 22 million Americans every year. Often, it is believed the only complication of the disorder is loud, chronic snoring, but this is not true. It causes you to stop breathing frequently throughout the night because the soft tissues in your mouth and throat collapse and block your airways. Each interruption in breathing restricts oxygen levels in your body. Over time, this creates significant health risks, such as cardiovascular disease and sleep deprivation.<\/p>\n<p>You need a sleep study to get the treatment you need to reduce the risks. By monitoring you while you sleep, it provides in-depth information necessary to properly diagnose the condition.<\/p>\n<h2>How Can I Get a Sleep Study at Home?<\/h2>\n<p>Weatherford Dental Sleep Medicine offers at-home sleep tests for 2 nights. After a prescription for the study is approved, you are scheduled for the study. You are given the device to wear while you sleep in your own bed. The information is shipped to a board-certified sleep physician who reads the results. Their recommendations are sent to Dr. Romack to create an individualized treatment plan.<\/p>\n<h2>How Can I Treat Sleep Apnea?<\/h2>\n<p>Based on your assessment, you may be recommended to use a CPAP machine while you sleep. It delivers a steady stream of air through a mask that is worn over your mouth or nose to keep your airways open. As an alternative, you may be a candidate for an oral appliance. The custom-fit device repositions your lower jaw forward to prevent your soft tissues from blocking your airways. In some cases, it may be best for you to use a combination of both therapies.<\/p>\n<h2>Sleep Soundly Today!<\/h2>\n<p>If you are uncomfortable sleeping at a study center, you do not need to put your treatment on hold.
