You may consider loud snoring no more than a minor annoyance. But if the underlying cause of your snoring is obstructive sleep apnea, it can also threaten your health. Several serious conditions have been linked to apnea, including high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes, and diabetes. Dr. Whitlock uses special diagnostic tools and treats sleep apnea in Cordova with a custom-made sleep appliance. Here’s what you can expect from our sleep apnea treatment:
If you feel like you’re not getting the restful sleep you need, we encourage to to call Arlington Dental today at 901-445-8144 for a consultation.
You deserve to get the sleep you need and reduce your risk for major health concerns. If you suffer from severe sleep apnea, your breathing could be interrupted hundreds of times per night as your airway becomes obstructed by your tongue and the soft tissues in the back of your throat. You wake up long enough to take in more air, then fall back asleep. Most sleep apnea sufferers aren’t even aware this cycle is taking place.
That’s where our obstructive sleep apnea treatment can help. We can:
You’ll sleep better and wake up feeling rested and ready for all that the day holds for you. Perhaps most importantly, you’ll reduce your chances of heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, and depression.
Get the relief you deserve from your Cordova sleep apnea. Call Arlington Dental today at 901-445-8144 for a consultation. You can also request an appointment online. Don’t forget to schedule your next regular checkup as well!
I’m so glad I found Arlington Dental! My experience has been nothing short of perfection! They are so friendly, warm and helpful! They work great as a team and you can tell they all love what they do! If you don’t believe, call and make an appointment and watch them take very good care of you 🌞 and have fun while doing it!
Very friendly and informative staff. They made me feel at ease after having a difficult time at my previous dentist’s office. My teeth felt great after my cleaning. I feel confident in their care for my teeth and actually look forward to my next visit!
My wife wrote a review, but Arlington Dental was so good that I had to write one too! I’m a singer, which makes my teeth/mouth a major part of what I do to put food on the table. The dentist listened to what I had to say about needing serious care taken (as to not change the tone of my voice), and after speaking with him I can honestly say that I am THOROUGHLY impressed and quite sure that I’m in good hands. I’ve had negative experiences other places, so my wife and I are very happy to give our business to Arlington Dental. Don’t even waste your time looking elsewhere. If you want top level care and a super friendly, knowledgeable staff, this is the spot for you!
I appreciate the positive, effective, and extremely lovely service I received today—the ladies at the front desk were extremely nice. I worked with Kathleen (I hope I spelled your name right), and she was very informative and kind. Dr. Mark Whitlock was very patient, kind and made sure to make my visit calm. He has a beautiful sense of humor, and it was very appreciated. She listened to my concerns and needs and made sure I was part of the decision-making of my care. I will be making this office my primary dental care provider.
Arlington Dental has been absolutely amazing! My husband and I both had our first appointments there today and I cannot describe how great of an experience it was. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and caring. My husband, who has anxiety about the dentist, felt so relaxed and relieved. They go above and beyond to take care of their patients! So glad to have them as our dentist!
I love Dr. Mark and his team. I highly recommend. I’m no longer afraid of visiting the dentist.
Loved it. Even though I was late, Stephanie and Dr. Whitlock were very sweet about it, and still took their time. I need to make another appointment because the sleep study, determined I have sleep apnea. I am very interested to see how they can help.
Convenient, through, gentle and kind staff! Dr. Whitlock, Lee, Tristan & Nikki were amazing!
I have had quite a bit of dental work done in my life. Honestly, this is one of the most professional and friendly offices I have ever visited. Dr Whitlock solved an issue I had for years during a quick visit once before. Today’s visit was once again outstanding. No pressure to have work done that isn’t needed either. They are very gentle and they have state of the art equipment. Excellent all the way around!
They are the best! Dr Whitlock is hilarious & the girls….Tristan & Stephanie are amazing! I will never go to another dentist. They do my entire family including my 9 year old & they are so good with him! I love my dentist!
I’ve been visiting this dentist for 5 years and the staff has always taken care of me! Very nice, friendly, caring, professional, and fast. They recently renovated the place and it looks so amazing and modern. I highly recommend this dentist to anyone!
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder that affects tens of millions of Americans. People who have sleep apnea can stop breathing hundreds of times each night. This condition can increase your risk of everything from high blood pressure to heart attacks and being in car accidents. The most common form of this disorder is obstructive sleep apnea, which Dr. Whitlock can treat with a custom-made mouthguard.
Sleep apnea interrupts critical airflow while sleeping. It can leave you feeling lethargic during the day and interfere with your work productivity and your personal life. In addition, sleep apnea has also been linked to several serious health conditions like high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and depression.
Loud snoring and pauses in breathing are the most well-known symptoms. Morning headaches and dry mouth may be the result of untreated sleep apnea, too. Many people with sleep apnea also suffer from fatigue and daytime sleepiness. Frequent mood changes, irritability, and trouble focusing also can be signs of a sleep disorder.
