Do you have a large herd of a family? Even if you have just one child, it’s tough to get everyone on the same page, but with multiples, it can be a true challenge.

If you struggle with your sleep, you are certainly not the only one. Many Americans have a tough time experiencing a full night of uninterrupted sleep, and this happens for a variety of reasons. Some of the things that are keeping us up at night include anxiety and work, but some common oral health conditions can also play a real role. Chronic obstructive sleep apnea is a sleep disorder that occurs when throat tissue blocks the airway overnight and bruxism happens when you grind your teeth during rest. Both of these can cause issues.

Here at our office, Dr. Torrens-Parker, D.D.S., M.S. at Allen Family Dental in Allen, TX can help you to find out more about your sleep. If you’re struggling with your rest due to obstructive sleep apnea, ask whether a simple and convenient oral appliance therapy approach can help you to receive the oxygen that you need. And if you grind your teeth overnight, ask about our bruxism solutions; if left untreated, this can affect your smile’s appearance and function.

Take steps to improve your oral health and your sleep at the same time. Schedule your next appointment at Allen Family Dental.

Are you looking for a brighter summer smile? If enamel staining has you down, take the time to talk to a trusted, local oral health team about your options. We know that there are a ton of over-the-counter products designed to help, but unfortunately, none of them come with the advice and expertise of a trained oral health professional. That means that they may be ineffective, and even worse, they could potentially lead to lasting dentin sensitivity through overbleaching.
