Experience a restful night’s sleep with our sleep apnea treatment!
Do you often wake up feeling more tired than before you went to sleep? Do you forget how it feels like to experience a full night’s sleep without interruptions?
Do you know that approximately 20 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea symptoms? Well, Dr. Clinton Timmerman DDS highly recommends receiving proper diagnosis and sleep apnea treatment right away.
What is sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea is a serious condition that could lead to further health complications if not diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) happens when your airway completely collapses while you sleep, thus blocking airflow into your lungs (which is why some sleep apnea patients wake up gasping, coughing, or choking).
Sleep apnea is a common occurrence that many people don’t even know they have, even though they suffer from the annoying symptoms it causes.
Such common symptoms of sleep apnea include:
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Forgetfulness
- Snoring when you sleep
- Daytime drowsiness
- Sudden choking, gasping, or coughing
- Waking up suddenly when you sleep
If you have any of these symptoms, or if you know someone who has these symptoms, it is best to get properly diagnosed and treated for sleep apnea right away, if it exists.
What to expect from our sleep apnea doctor
When you schedule your sleep apnea appointment with Dr. Clinton Timmerman DDS, you will come to the office, and he will discuss your symptoms with you. Then we will take impressions of your teeth and gums. We will also discuss various sleep apnea treatment options that we offer to our patients of Clive, Albia, Des Moines, West Des Moines, & the surrounding area.
In order to properly and accurately diagnose sleep apnea disorder, Dr. Clinton Timmerman DDS works in conjunction with a local sleep lab. It is here where trained and skilled sleep apnea professionals will accurately test and diagnose your symptoms to see if sleep apnea exists.
