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. Orthodontic Expansion for OSA Braces to expand reduced upper and lower jaw, in particular with airway restriction in young adults. ✅ CPAP & EPAP Therapy Other positive airway pressure devices that maintain airborne pressure to ensure airflow throughout the night.

Experience Lasting Relief with Neuromuscular Dentistry Neuromuscular dentistry provides a holistic, comprehensive treatment for facial pain issues, TMJ disorders, and body postural issues. While conventional dentists will only look at your teeth and gums, neuromuscular dentists identify and restore all of the pieces that make up one system—the jaw joints (TMJ), muscles, teeth, and nerves work to get function back to the entire craniofacial system supporting natural chewing, breathing, and swallowing. How Does Neuromuscular Imbalance Impact the Body? A misaligned jaw, misaligned bite (malocclusion), and chronic stress can pull your jaw out of alignment. When this happens the entire skull will sit unevenly on the cervical spine. This will put strain on surrounding muscles, leading to muscle spasms and radiated pain through the neck, shoulders, back, hips and legs. Neuromuscular dental therapies are utilized to reposition the jaws to a more optimal position and correct the bite. This can help alleviate muscle effort and strain leading to better body posture. The Consequences of Chewing with the Same Side Favoring one side while chewing may lead to an asymmetrical bite and an oblique occlusal plane. While chewing, this produces pressure in the chewing muscles on that side while putting strain on larger postural muscles such as the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscle that link the jaw to the neck and vertebral spine. This can easily lead to poor postural habits, back pain, sciatica, and leg fatigue when viewed as patterns and causes over time. Common Signs and Symptoms of Neuromuscular Disorders Watch for the following symptoms: • Jaw pain or TMJ pain • Clicking or popping when you use your jaw • Inability to open mouth fully • Headaches or migraines • Ringing in the ears or tinnitus • Inability to hold your head or shoulders up • Numbness or tingling in your fingers • Back pain (in particular L4, L5) • Sciatica or leg pain • Generalized muscle stiffness Smile and Glow Diagnostic Process for Facial Pain Using a multi-specialty approach the Smile and Glow Team invokes a systematic diagnostic process to determine the limitations associated with TMJ or other neuromuscular disorders: • Thorough history, posture, and sleeping position assessment. • Full mouth and extra-oral clinical examination. • Imagery: OPG, Lateral Ceph, CBCT, TMJ open/close views, airway scans, MRI, whole-body scans. • Sleep analysis either through home sleep test or polysomnogram. • XSens (external ground surface maxillary skull trackers), ULF-TENS, jaw tracking, MAT Scan and T-Scan, our digital device for measuring bite force. Why We Use T-Scan T-Scan provides a digital map of your bite to evaluate occlusal imbalances that may be causing you pain or long-term dysfunction. The Role of TENS Therapy in Neuromuscular Dentistry Ultra Low-Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (ULF-TENS) helps relax overworked jaw muscles and facilitates healing. TENS has been shown to: • Release muscle tightness. • Block pain signals from reaching the brain. • Increase endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relievers. • Increase blood flow to accelerate recovery. Once the muscle is relaxed we can take an accurate record of your true jaw position and build you a customized treatment plan. Neuromuscular Dentistry is effective for: • Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD) • Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) • Cranio-Cervical-Mandibular Disorders (CCMD) Holistic Treatment Options at Smile and Glow After evaluation and diagnosis our neuromuscular orthodontist might recommend: • mandibular orthopedic repositioning appliance (MORA) • orthotic splints, TENS therapy, or myomonitor therapy (J5 Myomonitor) • Restorative or orthodontic correction for stable occlusion. And we will work with other specialists such as ENT, pulmonologists, physiotherapists, and psychologists, if necessary. Start Accessing Treatment Early Around age 7 would be optimal, but anyone who has had chronic signs and symptoms (jaw pain, facial tension, neck stiffness, or shoulder or back stiffness) should be evaluated at the first sign of any problems to avoid worsening of symptoms.

Are you reluctant to smile because of yellow or discolored teeth? Everyday activities like drinking coffee, smoking or getting older can dull your natural beauty. 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. Some individuals may experience temporary sensitivity or gum irritation, especially if they are using high-concentration gel. At Smile and Glow, we will keep an eye on your comfort level, and we can recommend medicated toothpaste to alleviate any discomfort.

Restore Your Smile at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic Do you ever feel self-conscious about your front teeth because they are chipped, discoloured, or uneven? Perhaps you want to transform your smile for your wedding day? Dental veneers provide a long-lasting natural-looking solution for your smile. It does not matter if you have yellow stains, small cracks, uneven shape, or a combination of all three, dental veneers can completely restore the look of your teeth, allowing you to enjoy a beautiful smile once again. What Are Dental Veneers? Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells (laminates) that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are primarily designed for cosmetic corrections- covering teeth that are discoloured, chipped, worn, misaligned, or irregularly shaped.. Veneers can also be used to close small spaces between teeth, especially if traditional orthodontic treatment is not desired. Types of Veneers There are two types of veneers that are commonly used: • Porcelain Veneers (or porcelain laminates): porcelain veneers are well-known for their strength, durability, and natural look. • Composite Veneers: are a more cost-effective option made from tooth-coloured composite resin. Composite veneers take longer to place in-office than porcelain, but they give an acceptable result and may be stained over minor cracks over time. Veneers can be custom-made just for your smile or prefabricated (ready-made). If you choose custom veneers, the dentist will take several measurements to determine the dimensions of your teeth and then fabricate your veneers based on the aesthetics you want with your final smile. Custom dental veneers will usually give you the best results. Advantages of Dental Veneers • Whiten persistently stained or yellow teeth • Repair chips, cracks or worn teeth • Close small gaps between front teeth • Change the shape and size of teeth • correct minor misalignment for a fast result • Change the appearance of a gummy smile • Improve the overall look of your face and smiling confidence • Quick and durable cosmetic solution The veneer process is done at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic. The veneer process begins with a consultation appointment with an aesthetic dentist. They will discuss your smile goals, include photography, and take dental impressions, and finally they will create a preview with a wax mock-up of your teeth and goals. You will have an clear understanding of your new smile even before you start the treatment. In the procedure, a small piece of enamel will be taken away from the surface of the tooth (usually 0.3 to 1 mm) to make space for the veneer. The veneer will then be adhered to the tooth structure using dental cement. Caring for Your Veneers To help care for your veneers and keep your smile looking great at all times please follow: • Brush your teeth at least two times a day using a soft bristle toothbrush • Floss as advised to ensure you do not cause a plaque buildup • Avoid smoking and cut back on drinking foods or drinks that would stain your veneers • Go for your regular dental cleaning and checkups • Use a non-abrasive toothpaste (this will help prevent scratches to the surface of the veneer) Porcelain veneers are highly stain resistant. Composite veneers may discolor over time. This means that proper oral hygiene on a daily basis will contribute to great results in the long run. Hollywood Smile with Veneers Veneer technology is a favorite of Celebrities and commonly referred to as the “Hollywood Smile.” Other popular veneer options for an attractive smile include Lumineers, Componeers, Snap-On Smiles, and Instasmile. Each of these options has different uses to help advance your overall appearance. The dentists at Smile and Glow Dental Clinic will help you decide which option best suits your smile, lifestyle and budget. ____________________________________________________ Are you ready to take advantage of a smile you have always dreamed of having?
