The Truth about Snoring

Most of us have had some experience with snoring, either personally or with stories told by others. In addition to being a nuisance snoring can be a sign of a bigger problem; sleep apnea.

Often people who snore experience "apnea" episode where they completely stop breathing.

When you stop breathing your oxygen levels go down making your heart work harder. These episodes put a person at a higher risk for heart attack, stoke and many other life threatening conditions.

If you or someone you know snore they should be tested for sleep apnea.

In years past testing for this condition required spending the night in a sleep clinic. Today monitoring can be done in the comfort of your own home.

A small sleep monitor is worn over night and records your sleeping pattern.

Information obtained such as blood oxygen level, breathing, and apneatic episodes are evaluated to determine if you are at risk for sleep apnea.

If you are at risk for sleep apnea there are many options available to treat this condition.

Improve Your Smile

Veneers are a great option for many people who are looking to improve the aesthetics of their smile. When looking for a cosmetic dentist there are many things to consider, one question that you want to ask the dentist is what laboratory they use for their dental work.

Many dentists place "Lumineer" veneers. Lumineers are a brand of veneers and are made by specific laboratories, often in other states.

At Rochester Advanced Dentistry we choose to use a local laboratory. We feel that providing our patients with the highest quality materials and aesthetics is our top priority. Since our lab is only a few miles from our office Dr. Doolin, Dr. Haddad, the laboratory technician and patient are able to work hand in hand creating the perfect smile.
