Research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows…
Three Out of Four Adults in the United States Have Sleep Disorder Symptoms
Here are some of the most common signs:
Loud Snoring: Often the most recognized symptom. Snoring associated with sleep apnea tends to be louder and is usually followed by silent periods and then gasps or snorts.
Interrupted Breathing: Partners may observe instances where the sufferer stops breathing for a few seconds to minutes during sleep.
Excessive Daytime Sleepiness: Despite getting a full night's sleep, individuals with sleep apnea often experience severe drowsiness during the day, known as hypersomnia.
Morning Headaches: Regular headaches upon waking are common due to the lack of oxygen and disrupted sleep patterns.
Irritability and Mood Swings: The strain of constant sleep interruptions can lead to significant mood disturbances.
Difficulty Concentrating: Sleep apnea can affect cognitive functions, making it hard to concentrate and retain information.
Sore Throat or Dry Mouth Upon Waking: Breathing through the mouth during sleep can cause dryness and irritation.
High Blood Pressure: OSA can increase blood pressure, leading to hypertension.

At Rockford Dental Sleep Center, we understand the close relationship between dental health and sleep quality. We offer specialized services to address sleep-related breathing conditions. Discover how our expertise can help enhance both your sleep and overall health.
-
Experiencing frequent sleep interruptions? OSA may be the culprit. It's marked by partial or complete blockages in the upper airway during sleep, leading to disrupted sleep and lower oxygen levels.
-
Snoring is not just a nocturnal nuisance but might indicate deeper sleep issues. Our oral appliances can significantly reduce, or even eliminate, snoring by preventing throat tissue vibrations.
-
Wake up with sore jaws or headaches? You might be grinding your teeth unconsciously, often due to airway disturbances. We provide protective night guards and, when needed, address underlying sleep disorders to mitigate teeth grinding.
-
Aching jaw? It might be linked to your sleep. We evaluate and treat conditions of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that might be connected to sleep disturbances.
-
Structural issues like a recessed jaw can influence sleep quality. We offer comprehensive evaluations and interventions, ensuring your facial structures support optimal breathing during sleep.
-
Kids aren't exempt from sleep breathing disorders. Often, issues like enlarged tonsils can disrupt their sleep. We screen for pediatric sleep disorders and provide relevant treatments, ensuring your little ones sleep soundly.
