Having trouble with snoring and disturbed sleep? You might be experiencing Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), a serious, but common condition that can affect breathing while you sleep. Smile and Glow Dental Clinic in Mogappair, Jawahar Nagar, Chennai can offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for patients who are suffering from sleep-related breathing disorders. What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea? OSA is a condition where the airway becomes obstructed while you are sleeping, reducing or fully interrupting airflow. Airway obstruction is typically caused by relaxed muscles at the back of the throat, a large tongue, or a lower jaw positioned backward. Airway obstruction can cause loud snoring, decreased oxygen delivery to the brain, and frequent interruptions of sleep. A significant symptom of OSA is chronic snoring. If left untreated, chronic snoring can lead to complications for the heart and brain, overall health and well-being. Common Causes of OSA: • Weight or obesity • Large neck circumference • Enlarged tonsils or long soft palate • Small or recessed lower jaw • Nasal blockage (deviated septum, allergies, etc.) • Poor tongue posture during sleep • Sleep bruxism and clenching Signs to Look for: • Loud snoring that happens every night • Headaches upon waking • Always tired or sleepy during the day • Dry mouth or sore throat from sleeping • Limited focus and poor memory • Grinding or clenching teeth (bruxism) • Neck and shoulder discomfort • Swelling in the legs (in more advanced cases of OSA) At Smile and Glow Dental Clinic - Mogappair and Jawahar Nagar - we see many patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) struggling with TMJ pain, snoring or tiredness even after sleeping for an entire night. A true sign of sleep-disordered breathing! Diagnosis at Smile and Glow in Mogappair and Jawahar Nagar: Our protocol for diagnosis is here is comprehensive that includes: • Case history + STOP-BANG • Intraoral and extraoral clinical examination • CBCT 3D volumetric scan for airway analysis • Sleep study - Home Sleep Test / Polysomnography • Radiology - OPG, TMJ views, Lateral Cephalogram, MRI • T-Scan for bite force distribution • Jaw tracking & MAT scan • TENS (Ultra-low frequency neural stimulation) for jaw muscle relaxation Why treating OSA is important: Leaving sleep apnoea untreated puts you at risk for some serious health problems which include: • High blood pressure • Heart disease • Diabetes • Stroke • Chronic fatigue • Increased likelihood of accidents due to sleepy. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) Treatment Options in Chennai: Depending on the severity of your condition, our clinical team provides: Conservative Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) In the case of obstructive sleep apnea, simple lifestyle changes and non-invasive measures can significantly minimize obstructive sleep apnea severity. At Smile and Glow Dental Center - Jawahar Nagar, Mogappair, we recommend a number of conservative strategies: • Healthy weight – Losing excess body weight will reduce the fat deposits around the upper airway and allow for better airflow. • Avoidance of alcohol – Alcohol relaxes the muscles in the throat, which will worsen breathing interruptions while you sleep. • Limiting sedatives – Sedatives can minimize the body’s normal reflexes which can keep the airway open; therefore, increasing the chance of apnea episodes. • Change sleep position – Sleeping on your side with the support of a wedge pillow will keep the airway from collapsing, whereas sleeping on your back will worsen symptoms by allowing the airspace to collapse. • Nasal congestion treatment – Treatment for sinus or nasal blockage through nasal sprays before bedtime can improve breathing while sleeping at night. Oral Appliance Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea - Jawahar Nagar & Mogappair At Smile and Glow Dental Clinic, Jawahar Nagar and Mogappair, our clinic aims to be the cornerstone of Sleep Apnea Treatments. Oral appliances are effective for treatment of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and for patients with severe OSA who cannot tolerate nasal CPAP. Custom made dental appliances will reposition the lower jaw forward providing more airway space and ensuring thicker pressing down of the tongue. Just as easily as one would wear a mouthguard, our oral appliances help keep your airway open during the night for a very easy approach to your sleep apnea plan.

We offer safe, professional teeth whitening at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic, Mogappair, that can bring back your radiant smile in one visit! What is Teeth Whitening? Teeth whitening is a clinical cosmetic procedure that removes stains and discolouration from your teeth by using bleaching products. A professional dental whitening agent is a safe bleaching agent (usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) which breaks down stain molecules in the enamel so that the underlying surface appears whiter and brighter. Why Do Teeth Become Discoloured? Despite regular brushing, teeth become discoloured naturally from: • Teas, coffees, coloured foods, red wine • Smoking or tobacco use • Aging or wear to enamel • Medicines like tetracycline • Fluoride or excess fluoride (fluorosis) • Conditions like jaundice or trauma when a tooth was forming. Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments At Smile and Glow, we offer several types of treatment options to accommodate different needs and lifestyles: ________________________________________ 1. In-Office Teeth Whitening (Chairside Whitening) This is the quickest and most predictable whitening option, completed in one visit under the care of our dentist. • A protective gel or rubber dam will be applied to protect your gums while whitening is taking place. • A potent whitening gel is professionally applied, highlighting additional light(s) that can help enhance penetration. • Results are seen right away and typically after only 45-60 minutes. • The best option for those who want fast and dramatic results. ________________________________________ 2. At-Home Whitening Kits (Custom Trays) Are you looking to take a more gradual approach from home? • We will provide you with a custom-made whitening tray for your teeth. • Our dentist will instruct you on how to use the whitening bleaching gel correctly and safely. • You expect to see results in 2-6 weeks based on consistent use. ________________________________________ 3.

Not all accessories are equal, nor are they effective or safe for everyone. • We provide assistance in selecting dentist-approved products with the ADA Seal of Acceptance. • We will give you valuable professional advice that will allow for better results with fewer side effects. _____________________________________ Is Teeth Whitening Safe? Yes, when done under dental supervision, whitening is a safe and effective treatment.

For many years removable dentures were the only way to restore a full arch of missing teeth for our patients. Removable dentures often become loose over time because our jawbone is going through resorption or shrinkage from after tooth loss. This is especially true for lower jaw because patients will suffer from painful denture slipping while they are eating or talking, creating discomfort and embarrassment. At Smile and Glow Dental Clinic, Mogappair and Kolathur, we offer implant supported removable dentures. These dentures are extracted from 2 to 4 dental implants anchored into the jawbone. Our patients will surely experience at-home removal and cleaning of their denture while also enjoying the comfort and confidence the prior removable dentures did not give them. ------------------------------------------------------- Why get implant supported dentures? Implant supported dentures offers patients the best of both worlds, implants and dentures, and dramatically improves their quality of life. Patients can eat, speak, smile and be confident without worrying about their dentures moving. ________________________________________ Key Advantages of Implant Supported Dentures • Implants securely anchor the dentures to prevent movement and slipping • Comfortable fit with no painful denture sores or gum irritation • No messy adhesives or pastes required • Very simple and safe surgical procedure with a short recovery time • No palatal coverage, minimizing speech interference • Simple cleaning and maintenance for long-lasting oral health • Cost-effective compared to full fixed implant bridges • Good chewing efficiency for your favorite foods • Complementary to bone preservation, minimizing bone loss ________________________________________ If you are struggling with loose or uncomfortable dentures, implant supported dentures in Chennai at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic could be the answer.

Save Your Tooth, Get Rid of Pain – Without Extraction At Smile & Glow Dental Clinic in Mogappair, we perform root canals that are pain-free and save your natural tooth. If you have pain, a toothache, swelling or tooth sensitivity then a root canal may be a better option than having it extracted. ________________________________________ When is a Root Canal Needed? Root canal (endodontic therapy) is recommended when the tooth pulp of your tooth becomes infected from: • Deep tooth decay and pain • Cracked or broken tooth • Continuous pain that is typically worse at night • Severe sensitivity to hot, cold, even sweet foods • Pus or swelling next to the tooth • Worn tooth causing sharp pain • Dental trauma or injury These signs indicate that if you do not remove or treat the infection you will continue to experience injury, pain and potentially more infection leading to eventual tooth loss. ________________________________________ What it means to have a tooth? In the human body, we have three layers of a tooth: • Enamel – outside layer, white, and also its the hardest layer • Dentin - yellowish, and its the middle layer, and its strong like bone • Pulp - very soft, has nerves and blood vessels Once decay, or an injury reaches the pulp then inflammation occurs, infection and pain occurs which is when a root canal is warranted. ________________________________________ What is Root Canal Treatment? Root canal removes the infected pulp of a tooth, disinfects the inner canals, and fills them up with biocompatible material to relieve pain and to keep people from losing their tooth. At Smile and Glow Dental clinic, Mogappair, we perform microscopic root canals, which is done with a higher level accuracy, speed of healing, and longevity success. ________________________________________ The Step-By-Step Process of Root Canal Treatment We offer a sterile and relaxed environment utilizing the most advance dental technology, rotary instrumentation. Here are the steps we will take to complete the treatment as comfortably as possible: 1. Diagnosis & Access - The decay is removed and access is made to the pulp. 2. Length Determination - We will establish the root length through x-ray imaging as well as apex locators. 3. Cleaning & Shaping - We will clean the infected tissue with rotary instrumentation and hand files. 4. Filling - The canals are filled with a safe and bio-inert filling material. 5. Restoration - The top portion of the tooth will be filled and the surface will be clean and flat in preparation for a crown. ________________________________________ Is a Crown always necessary after a Root Canal? Yes. A root-canal tooth will become more brittle over time. To keep this brittle tooth from breaking requires a dentist-custom fitted dental crown that helps provide strength and restores the full function. At our Mogappair branch, we have custom fit tooth-colored crowns that will give you a natural look and lasting results. ________________________________________ Why Choose Smile and Glow for Root Canal Treatment in Mogappair? Painless and precision • Microscope guided root canal procedure • Experienced Endodontic specialists • Latest technology for faster recovery • Convenient location in Mogappair, Chennai ________________________________________ Don't let tooth pain control your life. Smile and Glow Dental Clinic offer specialized root canal therapy with the latest techniques and digital imaging - all while causing you minimal pain.
