Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Treatment
Sleep apnoea can be surprisingly hard to spot on your own—after all, it happens while you're fast asleep! But some telltale signs can give you a clue:
- Loud snoring
- Gasping or choking sounds
- Chronic headaches, especially in the morning
- Dry mouth
- Excessive tiredness
- Mood swings and irritability
- Difficulty with concentration and focus
- Frequently waking up at night
- Nodding off during the day
People with sleep apnoea often have no idea they're experiencing these symptoms. Usually, a partner or family member notices the loud snoring or gasping sounds that signal disrupted sleep. If any of these symptoms sound familiar, it might be time to check in with a dental professional trained in sleep apnoea, like Dr Chris Darby.
