Prescott Sleep & Tmj Solutions

Prescott Sleep & TMJ Solutions https://prescottsleeptmj.com Prescott Sleep & TMJ Solutions is a dental practice that treats Sleep Apnea and Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunctions and conditions. Sleep apnea is a common condition in which breathing stops and restarts often while you sleep. Over time, this causes extreme stress on the body’s organs, including the heart and brain, and on overall health. We treat sleep apnea and snoring by providing tailored dental solutions known as ‘sleep medicine.’ Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunctions affect the jaw joints and surrounding muscles and ligaments. They can cause several issues, including jaw pain, headaches, and difficulty opening and closing your mouth. TMJ issues, like sleep apnea, affect a person’s quality of life. We help patients, physicians, and professional medical offices educate, screen, test, and treat sleep apnea. Often, multiple causes of snoring and sleep apnea exist, and in some cases, multiple solutions are required. Our team educates our patients on the causes and helps them select the most appropriate therapies. Patient education is crucial to treating sleep apnea and is often missing from other treatment plans. This is what we do best. Many do not perceive a sense of urgency in treating sleep apnea or snoring. Instead, they opt to wait and see as their symptoms worsen. We help our patients understand their diagnosis, take ownership of it, and move forward with treatment that ultimately leads to better sleep quality, life, and health.
