Omaha Dentist Now Providing Advanced Treatment for Migraines and Sleep Apnea

    OMAHA, NE, August 21, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Experienced dentist in Omaha, Dr. Mark Braasch of Braasch Dentistry, is now offering advanced treatment for patients suffering from sleep apnea and migraines. This dentist in Omaha, NE is trained in neuromuscular dentistry as well as the treatment for mild to moderate sleep-related breathing disorders, and has successfully treated several patients for these serious conditions from his state-of-the-art facility.

Sleep apnea is a serious type of breathing disorder that is characterized by brief interruptions of breathing during sleep. If undiagnosed, obstructive sleep apnea can cause many health related problems including but not limited to stroke, heart attack, heart burn, depression, diabetes and can even be fatal. Migraines are one of the most common symptoms of TMJ problems, caused by the constant contraction of muscles which create severe tension and pressure in the head.

"Many patients suffering from sleep disorders or TMJ migraines aren't aware that a dentist can successfully treat these problems," said Dr. Braasch, Omaha, NE dentist. "At Braasch Dentistry, our services extend beyond a patient's teeth. We focus on the total health of each of our patients and offer years of experience and extensive training to support our expertise."

Headaches caused by TMJ disorders can be treated by the Omaha dentist through neuromuscular treatment. Dr. Braasch is trained in neuromuscular dentistry, a phase of dentistry that serves to correct the malocclusion and realign the jaw, thus relieving jaw and head pain and eliminating the need for invasive surgery or physical therapy and chiropractic care. By putting the temporomandibular joint into alignment and placing the jaw in its optimal position, neuromuscular dentistry can alleviate most migraine problems related to TMJ disorders. Patients who received migraine therapy from this Omaha, NE dentist reported little to no pain after receiving treatment.

For sleep apnea, this Omaha dentist offers the latest in FDA-approved oral orthotic therapy (OAT), also known as mandibular advancement devices (MAD), to keep the airway unobstructed during sleep. Dr. Braasch is highly trained in fitting and maintaining a wide variety of oral devices to reposition the mandible, retain the tongue below the airway and provide positive air way space to limit apnea episodes and their related loss of sleep. Additionally, Braasch Dentistry is one of the few dental offices to offer ARES, a sleep study that can be done in the comfort of a patient's home for a fraction of the cost of a traditional sleep study. Results of sleep therapy from this cosmetic dentist in Omaha have been encouraging, and many patients report fewer sleep interruptions.
