No, you don't! At Castleberry Dental, Dr. C understands that getting quality sleep is essential to your overall health, and we've made it easier than ever to find out if sleep apnea or other sleep disorders might be affecting you.
We offer convenient take-home sleep studies right here at our Ellsworth dental office. This means you can skip the hassle of scheduling appointments with a sleep specialist or spending an uncomfortable night in a sleep lab connected to numerous wires and monitors.
How Does a Sleep Study Work?
Our take-home sleep studies are comfortable and straightforward. Dr. C will provide you with a portable monitoring device and clear instructions on how to use it. You'll wear the device while sleeping in the comfort of your own bed, where you can follow your normal nighttime routine. The device records essential data about your breathing, oxygen levels, and sleep patterns throughout the night.
Once you return the device, our team will have the results analyzed by a board-certified sleep physician. Dr. C will then review the findings with you and discuss any treatment options. If you're diagnosed with sleep apnea, we can often provide oral appliance therapy right here at Castleberry Dental, which is a comfortable, effective alternative to CPAP machines for many patients.
This streamlined approach saves you time and provides answers faster, allowing you to start feeling more rested and energized sooner.
