Palo Cedro Dental Care & Cottonwood Dental Care: Bruce Farrell, DDS

Are you getting a good night sleep? Feeling tired today and needing that extra cup of coffee? What many people don't know is that Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common and serious sleep disorder that causes someone to stop breathing. The airway becomes repeatedly blocked, causing limited air to reach the lungs. When this happens, the body and brain become oxygen deprived and it may cause you to wake up. This may happen a couple times a night and in more sever cases a couple hundred times a night. We have shared a video below that briefly reviews OSA and what that means exactly. The next time you are in the office for an appointment please don't hesitate to ask any one of our staff members about your sleep
