Here at Arvada West Dental Care, we utilize Fotona’s NightLase® laser therapy to help patients who struggle with sleep apnea. This advanced laser treatment can help you feel more at ease during your treatment and help you achieve proper sleep at night.
Sleep apnea is a disorder often caused by a blocked or obstructed airway. As you sleep, this disorder can cause disruptions in your breathing patterns and lead to several other serious issues.
Including:
If you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, the right treatment for your condition will depend on a number of factors, including the effect your condition has on your day-to-day life and the severity of your disorder. Our dentist and team offer NightLase laser therapy as a noninvasive sleep apnea treatment option. NightLase harnesses the power of Fotona’s advanced Er:YAG laser modality, which uses a series of gentle pulses to penetrate the oral mucosa tissue and create a tightening effect that helps open up the airway and decrease snoring. The entire therapy involves three separate treatments over a six-week period for the most effective results.
The simplicity, safety and comfort of NightLase therapy has been well documented, as well as its high success rate in improving sleep patterns and alleviating the effects of sleep apnea.
