Snoring is not just a social nuisance but also a serious health issue. Sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Treatment Methods
Surgery is planned according to the pathology obstructing the airway: - Nasal Surgery: Septoplasty, turbinate reduction. - Soft Palate Surgery: Tightening sagging soft palate (UPPP), shortening the uvula. - Tongue Base Surgery: Procedures to prevent the tongue from collapsing backward.
CPAP (mask) therapy is recommended for patients unsuitable for surgery.
