Your Dentist May be the Key to a Better Night's Sleep!
Unconscious teeth clenching and grinding is a common issue that has a negative impact on sleep quality and restfulness. A visit to an experienced dentist like Dr. Farzad Feiz may be all it takes to resolve it.
LOS ANGELES, March 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Sleeping is one of the most fundamental biological necessities of the human race. Though people in different cultures and locales approach those needs differently, all people must sleep, and we approach this need in much the same way. Sleep is such a natural phenomenon that we hardly notice it unless we aren't getting it. Though the reasons for sleep deprivation are long and varied, one common cause of poor sleep is the unconscious clenching or grinding of the teeth which can disturb sleep cycles. When it comes to treating sleep issues, a dentist might not be the first professional to come to mind, however a highly experienced center like Calabasas Dental Group and California Dental Care is able to provide effective treatments for this issue for a better night's sleep.
Sleep deprivation and poor sleep are more than just inconveniences. In addition causing energy problems and making it difficult to get through the day, poor sleep increases stress on the body and can cause a faster standing pulse, anxiety, increased blood pressure, and lower the resilience of the immune system making it more likely to contract illnesses. Poor sleep can also be dangerous and lead to accidents or injury; particularly on the road. Drowsy driving causes over 100,000 police reported crashes, 71,000 injuries, and 1,550 deaths each year, according the National Highway Safety Administration. Clearly, chronic sleeplessness should be taken seriously and addressed no matter what the cause.
Interestingly enough, a common cause of poor sleep can actually be traced to a dental issue. Many people clinch or grind their teeth while they sleep. These actions are subconscious and normally unbeknownst to the person engaging in the behavior. They often prevent a proper sleep cycling, resulting in less REM sleep, which can culminate in increased restlessness in the morning. This condition may seem difficult to treat medically due to the lack of control and awareness on the part of the patient, however, as a dental issue, the solution is also dental in nature.
Calabasas Dental Group and California Dental Care provide proven and effective sleep apnea treatment in Los Angeles for patients losing sleep due to teeth clenching. As highly trained experts, Dr. Feiz and Dr. Kamjoo are able to treat this condition without the use of cumbersome machines like CPAPs or sleep masks. Through use of custom fitted plastic mouth guard-like instruments, the airway is prevented from being restricted through clenching which prevents apnea and difficulty breathing during sleep. It can also address chronic snoring.
