Sleep Better. Live Better!

Sleep Apnea Dentist in West Columbia, SC

West Columbia Sleep Apnea DentistObstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) deprives the brain of oxygen. Untreated OSA may cause: snoring, fatigue, weight gain, stroke, heart disease, diabetes, depression, worsening of ADHD and poor performance in school or work. The Sleep Apnea Dentist in West Columbia, SC is trained and certified in providing treatment for OSA.

In the past, the only solution to sleep apnea was a CPAP machine, which is bulky, noisy and uncomfortable.

A discrete, custom oral appliance can now serve as a very effective method fro treating OSA. This device is worn in the mouth only during sleep, and works by preventing the airway from collapsing by supporting the jaw. It can give you a more comfortable and sound sleep, and most importantly can add years to your life.

Don’t Let Fear Ruin Your Healthy Smile

Sleep Apnea Dentist in West Columbia, SC

Sleep Apnea Dentist in West ColumbiaHave you ever skipped or rescheduled a dental appointment due to fear or anxiety? Does the idea of having dental treatment fill you with dread? Do you worry about pain, embarrassment, or loss of control every time you sit down in a dental examination chair? You are not alone. And even better,we can help.

Most people experience some level of nervousness when going to the dentist. For about 10-20% of people, though, going to the dentist causes such anxiety that they will avoid going much longer than they should, sometimes leaving problems untreated for years. This can affect not only your oral health, but your overall health and self-esteem as well.

So, how does this happen? In most cases, dental fear is caused by either previous bad dental experiences or by indirect experiences, such as witnessing a parent with dental fear avoiding treatment. Once dental fear begins, it can be self-reinforcing and difficult to overcome.

We can help. The first step in overcoming dental fear and regaining your oral health is to let us know that this fear is an issue for you. There are a variety of techniques we can use to help make your visit comfortable and reassuring and to help you feel safe. Dr. Newman and our whole team are happy to speak with you about your specific concerns and anxieties and help you have more control over your own treatment plan. We will start with short, easy consultation and treatments and progress at the pace that feels right to you. When you feel safe and comfortable, your body is more able to relax during treatments, allowing greater anesthetic effectiveness.

So if dental anxiety has forced you to put off the treatments you need to regain or maintain your healthy smile, give Dr. Newman a call and let us show you why we’re known for compassionate, patient-centric dental care.
