Advanced solutions for better sleep and improved health.
For many individuals, lifestyle changes, CPAP therapy, or oral appliances can help manage snoring or sleep apnea. However, when these approaches are ineffective, surgical treatments may offer a long-term solution by addressing the structural causes of airway obstruction.
Surgical intervention may be recommended if:
What It Treats: Enlarged tissues in the throat.
Procedure: Removes excess tissue from the soft palate and uvula to widen the airway and reduce obstructions.
Ideal For: Moderate to severe snoring or obstructive sleep apnea caused by throat tissue.
What It Treats: Nasal obstructions.
Procedure: Corrects a deviated septum and reduces enlarged nasal turbinates to improve airflow through the nose.
Ideal For: Patients with nasal breathing issues that contribute to snoring or apnea.
What It Treats: Tongue positioning issues that block the airway.
Procedure: Reduces the size of the tongue base or adjusts its positioning to prevent airway blockages during sleep.
Ideal For: Patients with large tongues causing airway obstructions
What It Treats: Collapsed airway during sleep.
Procedure: Repositions the hyoid bone to provide greater airway stability.
Ideal For: Patients with obstructions in the lower throat area.
What It Treats: Severe sleep apnea caused by structural jaw issues.
Procedure: Moves the upper and lower jaw forward to expand the airway and improve airflow.
Ideal For: Patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea and facial structure contributing to the condition.
What It Treats: Obstructive sleep apnea.
Procedure: A small implant stimulates the tongue muscles to keep the airway open during sleep.
Ideal For: Patients unable to tolerate CPAP therapy.
