      Snore No More

  You Deserve a Goodnight’s Sleep.
What is SnoreNoMore?
 Our dentists have studied sleep apnea extensively over
  the past few months, and we want to treat your
  obstructive sleep.
 Approximately 15% of Canadians suffer from Sleep
  Apnea
 SnoreNoMore is a campaign to help those that suffer
  from obstructive sleep disorders, giving them the good
  night sleep they deserve.
 Our solutions are simple, fast and a better option than
  what is on the market
What is Sleep Apnea?

 While snoring may only produce nighttime noises, it
  becomes more serious when breathing is stopped for
  10 seconds at a time to 30 seconds or more, leading
  for gasps of air or chokes. This is called obstructive
  sleep apnea, which restricts oxygen to the brain.
Causes of Sleep Apnea
During sleep, the upper airway muscles relax and the airway narrows.
This becomes more evident in people with the following:



 Enlarged soft palate
 Enlarged tonsils
 Small or backwardly set lower jaw
 Large tongue
 Increased fat tissue in the neck (associated with increased body mass)
 Increasing age
Who is at Risk?
 Women whose necks are larger than 15-inches, and
  men whose necks are larger than17-inches
 Those with increased body mass (BMI)
 People over 40 years of age
 Smokers
 Those who have a family history of chronic respiratory
  disorders
 Loud snorers that often wake themselves up from their
  own snoring and choking
Symptoms
 Difficulty concentrating or learning
 Anxiety or depression
 Daytime fatigue
 Cardiovascular Disease
 Memory Loss
 Increased blood pressure
 Reduced Sex Drive
 Irritability
Effects of Sleep Apnea on
            your health
Untreated Sleep Apnea can cause, and aggravate:
 Hypertension (blood pressure)
 Heart disease
 Triglycerides and cholesterol
 Type 2 diabetes
 Gastroesophageal reflux
 Asthma
 Alzheimer’s Disease
Why Get Treated?
Apnea disrupts sleep patterns and prevents you from having a deep,
refreshing sleep. Beyond affecting your basic need for sleep, apneas
have detrimental effects on normal nighttime hormone secretion,
which regulates several important bodily functions. This hormonal
imbalance can cause massive increases in blood pressure and even
deteriorate cardiac health. Sleep apnea can also lead to:
 Cardiovascular disease
 Accidents while driving and at work
 Poor physical and intellectual performance
 Daytime sleepiness
 Weight gain
How is Sleep Apnea Cured?
For years Sleep Doctors have prescribed unconventional treatments
like those in this video:
No one wants to sleep with a
     mask on their face at night!!


And with our treatment, our dentist will make sure that you never have to!
