Sleep Apnoea Treatment

Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Treatment

Snoring may seem harmless but is characterised by noisy breathing during sleep. When we sleep, relaxation of throat muscles and the tongue’s backward movement can narrow the air passage, causing vibrations in the throat walls that produce the familiar snoring sound, often compared to a chainsaw’s rumble.

However, when this narrowing becomes severe, it can lead to a serious problem known as sleep apnoea. During sleep apnoea episodes, the airway becomes completely blocked, causing temporary pauses in breathing. If left untreated, this condition can result in disrupted sleep patterns and significant health risks.

Our experienced team excels in diagnosing and effectively addressing sleep disorders, thereby helping patients achieve improved sleep quality and overall health. We have provided successful sleep apnoea treatments to numerous patients from Perth and Mindarie, establishing us as a trusted name in the industry.

Sleep Apnoea Treatment Options at our Mindarie Clinic

Improving sleep quality and overall health is paramount when addressing sleep apnoea. Mindarie Quinns Dental Centre offers sleep apnoea treatment options designed to address your specific needs.

Our approach begins with a thorough diagnosis, which may involve a sleep study to analyse the severity of the condition. Once diagnosed, our experienced team recommends a treatment plan that may include:

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy

This requires wearing a mask over the nose and mouth while sleeping to deliver air pressure to keep the airways open.

Oral Appliance Therapy

Premium oral appliances are designed to reposition the jaw and tongue to prevent airway obstruction during sleep.

Lifestyle Modifications

Encouraging healthy lifestyle changes such as weight loss, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and sedatives before bedtime can contribute to alleviating symptoms.

Regular Follow-Ups

We emphasise the importance of regular follow-up appointments to monitor progress, adjust treatment as necessary, and ensure optimal management of sleep apnoea.

Managing Sleep Apnoea in Perth

Beyond initial treatment, our commitment to your well-being includes ongoing support and monitoring to optimise sleep quality. Our process begins with a thorough evaluation, using advanced radiographs as needed for accurate diagnosis.

Impressions are taken to create comfortable, effective appliances that alleviate airway obstruction. These devices are meticulously calibrated and come with detailed usage instructions.

After insertion, a follow-up appointment ensures proper fit and functionality, allowing us to monitor progress, address concerns, and fine-tune treatment for optimal results.

When Perth patients seek treatment for sleep apnoea at Mindarie Quinns Dental Centre, they experience expert care from a team of hard-working professionals.

Sleep Apnoea FAQ’s

What kind of doctor do I see if I snore?

If you snore and want to seek medical advice, you may want to see a dentist or an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat). Dentists can provide solutions like oral appliances for snoring, while an ENT can diagnose and treat underlying issues causing snoring.

How do I stop snoring?

Various methods in Perth exist to stop snoring, including lifestyle changes like weight loss and avoiding alcohol before bedtime. Additionally, dental devices such as oral appliances and medical treatments like CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy can effectively reduce snoring.

How much does it cost to stop snoring?

The cost to stop snoring can vary depending on the treatment method chosen. For example, dental appliances typically range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, while medical devices like CPAP machines can cost more. It’s best to consult a healthcare provider to discuss options and associated costs.

What our patients say

Google Review

Have been a client here for over 10 years and highly recommend this practice. Dr Lubinka has been my dentist for 12 years since I moved from the UK. Her professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail and her communication is outstanding. The administrative, support and dental nurse staff here are equally exceptional. Customer focused, positive, flexible and polite. Have never ever considered going anywhere else. Highly recommended.

Thank you to all the staff for being so caring and accommodating for my husband's first visit. Dr Lubinka has set him on a path toward dental health recovery. This practice has even inspired me to visit for a checkup and that’s somewhat miraculous!

Google Review

Excellent customer service, with friendly and experienced staff! This is so helpful when you have a child who has always been anxious going to the dentist. Dr Master is so professional and composed that I don't even need to go in with my child when she has an appointment. He makes sure that you are completely satisfied with the service you receive and that's at no additional cost to you!

Google Review

What can you say? Who loves going to the dentist? My experience has been awesome. No pain, no fuss, friendly and professional. Do I want to go again? No. I want to take better care of my teeth. Yet, if I have to go, I definitely will be back here.

Google Review

I cannot praise Mindarie Quinn’s dental staff highly enough. My son had an accident at school resulting in a chipped tooth, the desk staff were amazing, shifting around appointments to fit him in for emergency treatment. Dr Aron was brilliant. He was calm & gentle with a traumatised boy. Within the hour we were back home with a fixed up-front tooth. This is my usual dentist, and my experiences are always great, but the care we received today in an emergency was so professional and reassuring, I felt the need to leave a review of our experience. Thank you for the incredible treatment we received with you today.

Google Review

Staff are always super friendly. Really helpful when it comes to dental emergencies. My teeth are forever grateful.

Google Review

Myself and my children have been seeing Lubinka for years. She is kind, patient, friendly and explains everything very well. My daughter had to have 4 teeth extracted and the procedure went very well because of her trust in Lubinka. The other staff are also lovely. We highly recommend this practice.
