I Can’t Sleep and Don’t Know Why

It can be bothersome and frustrating to not know why you can’t sleep. Fortunately, Dr. Drummond and his team can inquire about your symptoms and discuss your daily lifestyle habits in an effort to narrow down what might be causing the problem. If what you explain leads him to suggest a sleep study, we can help you prepare so that you can discover whether it is sleep apnea to blame.

I Snore At Night and Don’t Know What to Do

If you snore and regularly wake up your bed partner, you can meet with a member of our team who can suggest further testing and/or a custom oral appliance. While rhinometry can help map out your nasal passages to determine what might be the issue, OAT (Oral Appliance Therapy) can produce a positive change in how you sleep, how others get essential rest, and how you function each day. The results from your rhinometry can also help Dr. Drummond determine which type of OAT you need.

I’ve Had a Sleep Study. What’s Next?

To find out if you have sleep apnea, you will need to undergo a sleep study. Dr. Drummond can determine which device will be most useful based on the information you provide. These at-home pieces of equipment are easy to use and allow you to stay in your comfortable bed. By monitoring your heart rate, oxygen levels, sleep patterns, and more, your data will be analyzed by a physician who can determine if sleep apnea exists. If so, we can discuss your treatment options.

I Hate My CPAP!

Many patients who start with a CPAP experience success; however, over time, they can be a nuisance because of the bulky machinery, loud noise, and difficulty with maneuverability. If this is you, Dr. Drummond can recommend a custom oral appliance that produces great results, as well as combined therapy. This uses both a CPAP mask and an oral appliance to achieve long-lasting change.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does snoring always mean someone has sleep apnea?

No, just because you snore does not mean you have sleep apnea, and vice versa. It is only one of many symptoms associated with the condition. If you do snore, you should still see a sleep dentist near Duncan, as you are likely disturbing your bed partner because of a partially blocked airway.

If you snore persistently, you may develop sleep apnea as you get older, so an oral appliance can help reduce this risk.

How can a dentist help treat sleep apnea?

Dentists are well-versed in the study of oral anatomy and how everything works. Since airway obstructions are caused by throat muscles and the soft palate collapsing during sleep, all of this falls into the realm of oral healthcare. Their educational and professional experience navigating the upper airway, jawbone, and mouth make dentists qualified to help. With extensive training, they can provide effective treatment that is designed to keep the airway open and improve sleep apnea symptoms.

Custom oral appliances are similar to mouthguards, which dentists regularly provide. This ensures that your jaw and tongue will shift forward just enough to keep your airway open at night.

How do I find the best place to get treatment for sleep apnea?

You need to know what it is you are looking for in a sleep apnea practice. Do you want someone whose office is close to your home or workplace? Do they need to take your medical insurance? Do they offer multiple treatment options, especially if you have not experienced much success with CPAP therapy? There are questions you can ask that will narrow your search.

Once you identify one or more professionals, the next step is to visit their website and read over their bios. This will tell you more about their educational and professional experience, as well as the qualifications and training they have to provide sleep apnea treatment.

When choosing Dr. Drummond, you will discover a highly qualified professional who offers multiple treatment options, affordable payment solutions, and is top-rated on Google.

What do you do if you can’t afford a sleep dentist?

Sleep apnea treatment near Duncan might sound expensive, but there are many options when it comes to paying for this type of care. If you have medical insurance through your employer or independently, there’s a good chance your dentist will accept it. This will make treatment more affordable. However, if you are uninsured, you can inquire about flexible financing through a third-party provider.

At Stop Snoring Lawton, Dr. Drummond not only welcomes your medical insurance and Medicare, but also is partnered with CareCredit Financing. With this option, you can apply for pre-approval and enroll in one of their low- or no-interest payment plans.
