Sleep Apnea Sufferers Get Help From Jeffersonville Dentist

    JEFFERSONVILLE, IN, December 04, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Studies have shown that lack of sleep trips up a patient's health. Some people may have nights when they don't get the right amount of sleep, and they will feel the negative affects the next day. For people dealing with sleep disorders, restless nights and tiresome days are far too familiar. When someone's overall wellbeing is put on the line, it's important to seek professional care.

At Dr. Michael Kirchner's practice, the dental staff has spent countless hours of training and continuing education to obtain the best skills and knowledge to provide effective treatment for sleep apnea patients. No one needs to suffer another sleepless night, which is why Dr. Kirchner, dentist in Jeffersonville, provides treatment of sleep apnea in Jeffersonville.

"A lack of sleep can put you and someone else in danger on the road. Plus, sleep apnea can increase the risk of heart disease, heart attack, heart failure, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, stroke and diabetes. Thus, it's important to find a solution for better rest. Our practice is helping many people gradually see better results related to their obstructed sleep apnea troubles," said Dr. Kirchner, Jeffersonville, IN dentist.

What is obstructed sleep apnea? It is a medical disorder in which the upper airway is obstructed, so patients have breathing stoppages multiple times a night. It's hard to enter deep sleep, so patients feel mentally and physically exhausted. If a patient is unsure whether he or she has sleep apnea, a medical doctor or dentist can examine and determine whether sleeplessness is a direct cause of sleep apnea.

Testing involves using a Pharyngometer or Rhinometer, which are breathing tests, to see if the airways collapse. If the test comes out positive, Dr. Kirchner will suggest a sleep study. If obstructive sleep apnea is diagnosed, Dr. Kirchner helps many obstructive sleep apnea patients by offering oral appliances to alleviate the obstructed airways.
