Sleep Apnoea

Sleep Apnoea Treatment in Lahore

Do you snore loudly, wake up tired, or feel sleepy throughout the day? You may be suffering from obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) a serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. At our dental clinic in Lahore, we provide custom sleep apnoea appliances that help open the airway and restore restful sleepwithout the need for a CPAP machine.

What Is Sleep Apnoea?

Sleep apnoea occurs when the muscles at the back of your throat relax too much during sleep, causing airway blockage. This leads to interrupted breathing, loud snoring, gasping for air, and poor sleep quality. Untreated sleep apnoea can increase the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, and daytime fatigue.

Signs and Symptoms

Common signs of obstructive sleep apnoea include:

Loud, chronic snoring
Gasping or choking during sleep
Morning headaches or dry mouth
Difficulty staying asleep (insomnia)
Waking up frequently during the night

If you experience any of these, it’s important to seek professional help.

No noise or electricity required
Non-invasive and custom-designed for you

We work closely with sleep physicians to diagnose OSA and offer tailor-made dental appliances to help you breathe and sleep better.
