Snoring can sometimes be a symptom of a serious condition called sleep apnea. If you snore and also notice that you have trouble with daytime fatigue or drowsiness, mood swings, and headaches, call your physician to be evaluated for sleep apnea. We can provide you with a comfortable mouthpiece that will open up your airway while you sleep. More oxygen is allowed to enter the bloodstream, and both you and your significant other will rest easier.
Yes! If you are unable to tolerate CPAP our doctor can fit you for an oral appliance as an alternative to CPAP. Dr. Davis is the only Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine in Westchester County and is highly experienced in sleep dentistry.
At Metro Dental, we believe in only taking x-rays when they are necessary. If you have an upcoming new patient visit, we can arrange for your previous dentist to send us your radiographs. We will only take updated radiographs if they are out of date (generally over 1 year old).
