Snoring is the sound produced by vibrations in the throat due to partial airway obstruction during sleep. It often occurs when the muscles in the throat relax excessively, causing the airway to narrow. This condition is most common during deep sleep and can affect anyone, though it is more prevalent in men and individuals who are overweight. Chronic snoring can lead to sleep disruptions and affect your overall well-being. At NSIBR physicians specialize in diagnosing the root causes of snoring and provide effective treatments to fit your needs.
Most people often miss the signs of snoring. Here are some of the signs that may indicate that you are suffering from snoring:
At NSIBR, our comprehensive evaluation includes assessing your nasal structure, breathing patterns, and sleep quality through imaging, nasal endoscopy, and sleep studies. This helps identify the most effective solutions for improving your breathing to reduce snoring.
We offer various non-surgical, minimally invasive, and surgical remedies for snoring. Our expert team includes Dr. Nachlas and Dr. Hancock who hold double board certification in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery and otolaryngology-head and neck surgery. Our snoring treatment options include:
If chronic snoring affects your sleep quality or that of your partner, you may be a candidate for treatment. Persistent snoring that doesn’t improve with lifestyle changes and medication often indicates an underlying nasal or airway issue. At NSIBR, we evaluate your condition to determine the most effective solution to help you breathe and sleep better.
During your snoring surgery at NSIBR, you’ll be under a light anesthetic for your comfort, even though local anesthetic may also be used. The surgery may involve techniques like septoplasty or nasal sculpting to address airway obstructions. Mild swelling and discomfort are common after surgery, and you’ll need to follow specific guidelines to ensure proper healing. Recovery depends on the type of procedure even though most patients resume their routine activities within a few days. Patients gradually notice improvements in their breathing and sleep quality over time as healing continues and swelling subsides. Your surgeon will provide detailed pre-surgery instructions and closely monitor your recovery progress.
Treating chronic snoring offers numerous benefits. By addressing the root causes of snoring, our advanced procedures improve sleep quality and enhance overall health and well-being.
While surgery to stop snoring is generally safe and effective, there are some risks involved. Understanding these potential risks can help you make an informed decision about your treatment options.
Our skilled team combines extensive experience with a compassionate approach to help you achieve a restful, snore-free life.
Sinus snoring occurs when nasal congestion or sinus issues cause airway obstruction, leading to snoring. This can be due to allergies, sinusitis, or structural problems in the nose.
Snoring can be a symptom of sleep apnea, a serious condition where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep. If you snore regularly, it’s important to get evaluated for sleep apnea to determine which treatment option, such as Dr. Hancock’s pioneering obstructive sleep apnea implant surgery.
Coverage for snoring surgery varies by insurance plan. It’s best to consult with your provider and our office to determine your coverage options.
