BEST DENTIST IN ANNA NAGAR!

Each night as you drift off into unconsciousness, probably the last thing you’re thinking of is your teeth. However, our sleep can dramatically affect our teeth and oral health. Not getting enough deep, restful sleep is a common, yet overlooked health issue. Insufficient sleep due to sleep apnoea increases the risk of coronary artery disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease. It can also affect our teeth. When muscles in the throat relax during sleep, the airway can be partially blocked. This can reduce the oxygen flow. We respond by awakening to gasp for air. And it can happen without being conscious of even waking up. Imagine this happening hundreds of times each night. No wonder you’re tired all day long! This sleeping disorder often involves mouth breathing. Waking up with a dry mouth, sore throat or headache is a common sign of mouth breathing.
