Snoring Remedy

Does your husband or wife snore? Are you frustrated and tired of dealing with this habit? It is time for you to be more informed about snoring and how to prevent it.

What causes snoring?

As we sleep, the soft muscles in the throat and mouth relax, causing our airway to become smaller. This decrease in airway size causes the air to increase in speed, which in turn causes the relaxed tissues to vibrate. This vibration is what we called snoring.

Treatment

There are several treatment options for snoring.

• Surgical intervention such as removing the tonsils or uvula
• Losing weight
• Limiting alcohol consumption
• Taking sedatives
• Mandibular Advancement Splints are the most affordable way to curb mild sleep apnea.

Severe sleep apnea cases can only be treated using sleep apnea machines.
