Extractions: Snoring and sleep apnea are related conditions. They are both very common in adults . Snoring by itself can be bothersome to the bed partner but usually has no direct impact on the snorer's health. However, people who snore loudly every night are at risk for having a condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). In this condition, the snorer has repeated obstruction of the breathing passage during sleep that can lead to some very serious health consequences Although so-called "Primary Snoring" (snoring without apnea) does not lead to serious medical conditions, it can create a severe strain on a relationship. The consequences of this are difficult to quantify but are important nonetheless. For example, a divorce or break-up rates as high on the stress scale as the death of a close family member or suffering a serious acute illness. Snoring is an indication that there is narrowing of the air passage during sleep. Even in people who do not snore or have OSA, the upper airway collapses during sleep. Patients with chronic lung disease or neuromuscular disease such as spinal cord injury may experience more problems with a given degree of narrowing than people who are otherwise healthy.

Extractions: By Amy Durgan (WebMD) As Frank Ternan tells it, his wife Pat's snoring became unbearable when their boat was docked during a sailing trip on Lake Ontario 10 years ago. "We were all cooped up in a small cabin," says Ternan, of Calgary, Alberta, "and the snoring got worse and worse until (the bed) was vibrating back and forth." The couple's oldest son, Chris, unable to sleep, left his bunk in the middle of the night. Frank found him the next morning curled up on a bench on the dock.
CNN - Snoring Can Be More Than A Noisy Annoyance - Mar. 19, 1997
snoring can be more than a noisy annoyance. March 19, 1997 Web posted at 750 pmEST. Research is in the works for potential clinical treatments for snoring.
http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/9703/19/nfm/snoring/

Extractions: Web posted at: 7:50 p.m. EST From Correspondent Linda Ciampa Editor's note: This story is part three of a week-long series on sleep deprivation's impact on society. (CNN) Snoring is a problem as old as sleep itself, and it has been immortalized as the butt of countless family jokes. But for some snorers, it is no laughing matter. As many as 40 percent of adults, most of them men, snore. Sleep apnea, a related disorder in which people literally stop breathing in their sleep, affects about 28 million Americans. Snoring happens when a person's throat muscles relax during sleep, and he or she tries to breathe through a too-small opening in the back of the throat. This causes the soft palate to vibrate and make that familiar noise. "Snoring has a huge spectrum, and I think that's the key variable you need to keep in mind," said Dr. David White "Some people, it's just making noise it may upset their spouse or the guy next door, but it has very little clinical impact. In other people, it indicates that they're dramatically working to breathe. It indicates they have sleep apnea." Frank Tosti of Tauton, Massachusetts, knows about the potentially dangerous consequences of sleep apnea.
Snoring & Sleep Apnea
snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are both breathing disorders that occurduring sleep due to a narrowing or total closure of the airway.
http://www.dentalreference.com/html/snoring.html

Extractions: s="na";c="na";j="na";f=""+escape(document.referrer) related: sleep apnea self-test Snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are both breathing disorders that occur during sleep due to a narrowing or total closure of the airway. Snoring is a noise created by the partial closure of the airway and may often be linked to medical disorders such as high blood pressure. Obstructive sleep apnea is a very serious condition in which the airway closes repeatedly during sleep; it results in decreased oxygen levels in the body and disruptive sleep. For many, this condition causes excessive daytime drowsiness. Oral appliances are often helpful in the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea. Those diagnosed with mild to moderate conditions are usually better treated with these products than those seriously afflicted. Oral appliances are designed to assist breathing by keeping the tongue forward; thereby, opening the airway space in the throat. There are several factors which contribute to the condition such as nasal obstruction, narrow air space in the throat, and excess weight. Considerations Its generally recommended that oral appliances be checked at least twice a year by your dentist to ensure proper fit and that the mouth be examined at that time to ensure a healthy condition.
