Breathe Well

Do you have a bad night’s sleep? Do you snore?

While some snoring can be harmless , it is important that all people who snore are tested for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea.

Snoring can be a sign of this serious medical condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnoea. In the short term, snoring can cause sleepiness, headaches and lead to a lack of productivity.

In the long run chronic snorers can develop high blood pressure and are more likely to suffer from heart and lung problems. Research has also indicated sufferers of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea are at a high risk of developing:

• Sleep Deprivation
• Stroke
• Hypertension
• Abnormal Heart Rhythm
• Right-sided Heart Failure

All people who snore should be tested for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea. To learn more contact Albany Dental today on 07 3264 5698
