Combined TreatmentWhy Sleep Apnea Treatment Matters
Over 20 million Americans are currently suffering from sleep apnea and another 20 million are dealing with other sleep breathing disorders. Altogether, more than 10% of the American population simply isn’t sleeping well at night, leaving them vulnerable to both mental and physical problems. When left untreated, sleep apnea patients typically have to deal with constant fatigue, mood swings, trouble focusing, and elevated blood pressure. When all of these combine, a person’s quality of life and even mortality are severely threatened.
Fortunately, all of these issues can be easily avoided by simply getting treatment, which is exactly what you’ll find here at Sleep Better Appliances.
