There are many dental
& oral devices on the market today that can be used to reduce
the effects of chronic snoring or sleep apnea.
A desirable treatment for Sleep Apnea that has shown great results
is the 'Pillar Procedure'. Done in one simple office visit, three
small woven inserts are placed into the soft palate of the mouth,
reducing the vibrations that cause Sleep Apnea and the snoring noise
to occur. This is an FDA approved, less invasive option that has
proven itself to be effective in approximately 80% of its recipients
suffering from Sleep Apnea and Snoring.
According to Dr.'s Jennifer Jordan and Dwight Lee, Dallas, TX-based
experts in sleep apnea and chronic snoring, the Pillar Procedure
is virtually pain-free.
Only a doctor can determine the cause of
your snoring and advise you on which option would work best for
you. If it is determined that you have sleep apnea,
be sure to ask about the Pilar Procedure. If your doctor is not
familiar with it, give Dr. Jordan or Lee a call.
