We offer a promising treatment for snoring. Snoring is a common problem affecting 24% of adult men and 9% of adult women. Because 90% of snoring is generated by the uvula and soft palate, procedures that re-sect, shorten or stiffen the uvula and soft palate are generally successful.
Sleep apnea is a problem that has multiple consequences. If you or a loved one stops breathing during the night, accompanied by snoring, you should be evaluated by an otolaryngologist. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the apnea.
