Sleep Apnoea Islington

Sleep apnoea is a common yet often overlooked condition that can significantly affect your overall health and quality of life. If you struggle with loud snoring, daytime fatigue, or interrupted sleep, Islington Green Dental offers effective, non-invasive treatments to help you breathe better, sleep soundly, and wake up feeling refreshed.

What Is Sleep Apnoea?

Sleep apnoea is a sleep disorder where your breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. This can happen due to a blocked airway (Obstructive Sleep Apnoea) or improper signals from the brain (Central Sleep Apnoea). The most common type, obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), occurs when the soft tissues in the throat relax and collapse, partially or fully blocking the airway.

At Islington Green Dental, we specialise in diagnosing and managing sleep apnoea using custom-designed oral appliances to improve your breathing and restore restful sleep.
