Relief From Snoring and Nighttime Discomfort for Better Rest
If you snore or wake up with a dry mouth or sore jaw, it may be more than just an annoyance—it could be affecting your dental health and energy levels. At Dr. Saima Shora Dentistry, we address sleep-related concerns like snoring and nighttime clenching that may impact your rest and overall well-being. Our team evaluates the oral factors contributing to your sleeping issues and offers personalized solutions designed to improve both your comfort and your health.
Snoring and Mouth Breathing
Affecting Rest, Oral Health, and Daily Energy
Snoring is typically caused by airflow obstruction due to soft tissue vibration in the throat. Many people are unaware that chronic snoring can also lead to persistent mouth breathing. This dries out the mouth and increases your risk of bad breath, cavities, gum irritation, and infections. Causes may include nasal congestion, enlarged tonsils, being overweight, sleep position, or naturally narrow airways. If you wake up tired or with a dry mouth, we may be able to help identify the issue and reduce your discomfort.
Nighttime Teeth Clenching
Protecting Your Teeth From Grinding While You Sleep
Some patients clench or grind their teeth at night without realizing it—a condition called bruxism. This habit may be triggered by stress, bite misalignment, or sleep disturbances. Over time, it can lead to jaw pain, tooth wear, headaches, and even cracked teeth. We can help by examining signs of grinding and providing a custom night guard to protect your smile while you sleep. Wearing this comfortable appliance reduces tension, preserves your teeth, and can improve your overall sleep quality.
