Enjoy Healthier, Happier Days and Nights
A good night’s sleep is essential for your body to recover from daily stress. However, simply sleeping does not guarantee you are getting restful sleep. Snoring is a common issue that affects sleep quality. It indicates compromised breathing, often occurring when the soft tissues in your mouth collapse and block your airway, stopping your breathing frequently at night. The American Sleep Apnea Association estimates that 22 million Americans have sleep apnea. To help you address this issue, our Smile Design Dental team provides safe, comfortable, and effective sleep apnea treatment in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Our customized treatments aim to improve your sleep quality and overall health, helping you wake up feeling refreshed and energized.
