Sleep Apnoea in Brisbane
Are you or your partner suffering from lack of sleep or low energy when you wake up?
There are many disorders known to impair sleep, serious enough to interfere with normal physical, mental, social and emotional functioning, and it’s possible to have more than one sleep disorder affecting your health.
NEW PATIENTS
Obstructive sleep apnoea—symptoms include snoring, waking unrefreshed, daytime tiredness, and sometimes waking during the night choking or gasping for air. When untreated, obstructive sleep apnoea is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.
Grinding and Clenching (Bruxism)—in addition to being detrimental to dental health, the noise from bruxism can be disturbing for others. Bruxism may lead to headaches, jaw pain, and daytime tiredness
Snoring—most people will snore at some time; however, loud or chronic snoring can disrupt sleep quality and disturb others, and is often associated with other sleep-related breathing disorders.
Dry Mouth—dry mouth in patients suffering sleep disorders is common due to medications or mouth breathing. Dry mouth causes quick and severe deterioration of teeth.
Sleeping Disorders In Children
Sleep problems can affect children and adults. Children with a sleep disorder may suffer from snoring, waking unrefreshed, daytime sleepiness, hyperactivity, and problems with memory, learning, and concentration, or have behavioural issues.
