At Jackson Smiles, we provide care for sleep-disordered breathing through a whole-body approach to airway health. Our dentistsand team understand that sleep impacts nearly every system in the body. If you or your child experience fatigue, snoring or trouble focusing, there may be a deeper cause affecting your ability to rest and recover.
Adults often assume their sleep patterns are permanent, and that treatment options are limited to CPAP machines. However, our care includes modern alternatives and tailored treatments for improved comfort and compliance. Children may display symptoms differently—what seems like normal snoring or bedwetting could point to airway obstruction or poor oxygen intake during sleep.
What Sleep-Disordered Breathing Can Cause
Sleep-related breathing issues do not just disrupt sleep—they affect long-term physical and mental health. Identifying the cause is key to preventing chronic issues that extend beyond the bedroom.
Common symptoms in adults:
- Snoring or interrupted breathing
- Brain fog and lack of focus
- Cardiovascular strain and high blood pressure
- Increased stress or anxiety
- TMJ dysfunction and bite imbalances
- Dental crowding and weight gain
Common symptoms in children:
- ADHD-like behavior or lack of focus
- Bedwetting and night terrors
- Fatigue or low energy during the day
- Mouth-breathing and oral development issues
When these issues are left untreated, the health consequences often intensify over time. Adults may begin to experience chronic inflammation, poor metabolism and impaired immune response. In children, these issues can affect growth, academic performance and emotional regulation. Sleep medicine plays a preventive role in overall health, targeting the root of systemic imbalances through oral and airway-focused interventions.
Treatment begins with a precise evaluation of your airway using modern diagnostic tools. Our dentists then create a personalized plan that may include a custom-fitted oral appliance designed to improve airflow and support natural breathing during sleep. This non-invasive approach is well-tolerated and has helped many patients avoid surgery or dependency on machines.
