Sleep Apnea Therapy in Burbank and San Diego, CA

Because snoring can stem from various factors, effective treatment must be personalized. Our top-notch snoring and sleep surgeons prioritize tailoring treatment to each patient’s needs. This personalized approach is key to finding a long-term solution to snoring and improving your quality of life.

Snoring Treatment Options

There are many successful ways to treat snoring, including common methods like medications and surgery. At SoCal Breathe Free, we use the most advanced technologies to treat snoring more effectively and conveniently than ever before.

Our treatments include:

Elevoplasty®: Elevoplasty provides a therapeutic choice for patients seeking relief from snoring without using an oral appliance at night or undergoing palate surgery. Elevoplasty involves lifting and stiffening the soft palate with three bi-directional, barbed, resorbable suture implants

Benefits include:

  • Effective snoring relief for the patient (and their partner)
  • Relief from airway obstruction
  • A minimally invasive outpatient procedure
  • Excellent results achieved without wearing an oral appliance at night

Patients who snore without suffering from sleep apnea are usually the best candidates for Elevoplasty. Our highly trained doctors will assess you and take various factors into account to determine if Elevoplasty is the best option for you.

ValENT® Snoring Rx Laser: ValENT Snoring Rx Laser presents a new, minimally invasive and effective snoring relief method. A precise diode laser is utilized to target the nasal surface of the uvula and soft palate, stiffening the tissue to reduce snoring.
Benefits include:

  • Alleviates snoring for most patients
  • Is inexpensive
  • Has minimal discomfort
  • Is safe, accurate, and effective
  • Can be performed in the office with local anesthesia
  • Offers a quick recovery
  • Does not interfere with eating and drinking

The laser is best for patients who:

  • Display normal or very mild sleep apnea events
  • Have an elongated or thick uvula and small tonsils
  • Have no other sleep-related comorbidities
  • Suffer from persistent palatal snoring

In some cases, a combination of Elevoplasty and the ValENT laser could be the best course of action. Schedule an appointment today so we can assist you in determining the best treatment to relieve your snoring.

eXcite OSA: eXcite OSA is a revolutionary oral device that helps individuals suffering from snoring and mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This innovative device leverages neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to strengthen and tone the muscles of the tongue and upper airway, effectively reducing the incidence of airway collapse during sleep.

Benefits Include:

  • A non-invasive, comfortable, and discreet solution, without the bulky masks or noisy equipment
  • Can be used as a daytime therapy, as a stand-alone modality, or in addition to a nighttime treatment
  • Self-administered

 

I Snore…But I Do Not Have Sleep Apnea, Do I Need Treatment?

Treating snoring and sleep apnea doesn’t always require simultaneous attention. The decision to address primary snoring (without concurrent OSA) largely depends on its impact on the individual and their bed partner or others affected by the noise. Various options are available, including office-based, minimally invasive, and laser-assisted procedures that can be performed under local anesthesia.

For mild to occasional snoring, weight loss and adequate nose breathing are excellent tactics that will positively affect snoring. You can elevate your head at night, avoid smoking, alcohol and eating large meals right before going to bed.
