Snoring & Sleep Apnoea İstanbul
Snoring and sleep apnoea are important health problems that not only reduce sleep quality but can also negatively affect heart and vascular health if left untreated. At Dentapolitan clinics, we offer effective solutions for snoring and mild-to-moderate sleep apnoea with modern approaches based on dentistry.
Intraoral appliances (anti-snoring appliances) keep the airway open by moving the lower jaw slightly forward and significantly reduce snoring. Our specialist dentists plan a comfortable treatment process that does not require surgery, with appliances prepared specifically for each individual.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is snoring?
Snoring is a sound caused by partial airway closure during sleep. While usually harmless, it can also indicate sleep apnea.
What is the difference between snoring and sleep apnea?
Snoring is just sound production, while sleep apnea is complete airway closure. Apnea causes breathing interruptions and low oxygen levels.
Can snoring be treated?
Yes, it can be treated. Options include lifestyle changes, weight loss, oral appliances, and surgical methods.
Is sleep apnea dangerous?
If left untreated, sleep apnea increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and sudden death. Seeing a doctor is very important.
What can a dentist do?
A dentist can design snoring appliances (MAD) that gently position the lower jaw forward to keep the airway open.
