NightLase: Non-Invasive Laser Treatment for Sleep Apnea & Snoring in Knoxville
By Dr. Debra Durst, MD – Founder, RevitalyzeMD
Understanding Sleep Apnea and Snoring
Sleep Apnea is a condition where breathing repeatedly stops or becomes shallow during sleep. This can lead to:
- Poor sleep quality
- Low oxygen levels
- Increased long-term health risks
Snoring is often a symptom of sleep apnea but doesn’t always indicate the condition. Concerning signs include:
- Choking or gasping during sleep
- Interrupted or shallow breathing
Health Risks of Untreated Sleep Apnea:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Stroke
- Obesity and metabolic disorders
- Reduced lifespan
Traditional Treatments for Sleep Apnea
CPAP Therapy
- The gold standard for moderate to severe sleep apnea
- Low compliance due to discomfort and cumbersome equipment
Surgical Interventions
- Inspire Therapy: Nerve stimulation device
- Uvulopalatoplasty: Tissue removal surgery
While effective, these treatments can be invasive or uncomfortable for many patients.
