Snoring is Not Sexy! Sleep apnea and what we can do to help

Are you ready to kick your bed partner out to the doghouse because you can’t stand one more night of that loud snoring, gasping, choking and rattling?  Do you feel more like you are sleeping with a tractor than a person? You may have more than irritating noise on your hands – your partner might be dealing with sleep apnea!

The fact is, most people with sleep apnea are not aware that they have it. They don’t hear themselves snore and they don’t realize that they have stopped breathing during an episode. All they know is that they rarely feel rested.

Does your partner exhibit any of the following symptoms to go with his or her snoring?

• Excessive daytime sleepiness
• Tiredness
• Dry mouth
• Sore throat
• Insomnia
• Inability to sleep through the night
• Restlessness during the night
• Short term memory problems
• High blood pressure
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Diabetes
• Memory/concentration difficulties
• Intellectual deterioration

Please call me or a sleep clinic right away. Sleep apnea can be life threatening! I can help both you and your partner get a good night’s sleep with a special oral device so small it fits in the palm of your hand.

Perfecting and Balancing a Gummy Smile

There isn’t much, in my opinion, that is more frustrating than feeling embarrassed by your smile. It causes both social and professional limitations and makes smiling an emotionally painful experience. It’s one of the reasons I decided to practice dentistry in the first place.

As cosmetic dentistry advances, people are being offered more and more options for improving and perfecting their smiles. One of the easiest and most dramatic is gum recontouring. In fact, many people find that their smile can be significantly brightened and lengthened by removing the excess gum tissue that covers their perfectly beautiful tooth enamel.

Gum contouring wasn’t always so simple. We used to have to rely on a scalpel and sutures to accomplish the procedure. But now, using lasers, we can quickly and painlessly sculpt the gums in one visit! You will look better right away because the laser seals and heal as it works – no stitches, no bleeding and no long recovery period. Just a beautiful, fresh smile.

For more information about how gum recontouring or any of my other cosmetic dentistry procedures can help you find the smile of your dreams, call me, Dr. Randy Mitchmore at 713- 592-9300, or visit the Life Smiles Website at www.implantdentistinhouston.com.

Soothing Oral Surgery – Huston’s Choice for Comfort and Convenience

Some people hear the words “oral surgery” and they think of a major operation like jaw surgery – not having a tooth pulled. But tooth extraction is an important part of what is considered oral surgery these days. To more precisely define oral surgery, let’s say this: Oral surgery is a dental specialty that specifically deals with correcting problems or damage to the mouth, teeth and jaw. It is most commonly used to remove wisdom teeth or perform other extractions, to prepare the mouth for dentures, repair damage, place dental implants or perform bone augmentation. Many dentists refer these procedures to other dentists. I don’t.  I think my patients deserve the comfort and security of an office they know. That’s why  I have received all the training and certification necessary to handle almost any oral surgery need . For more information about my comfortable oral surgery, call me, Dr. Randy Mitchmore at 713- 592-9300, or visit the Life Smiles Website at http://www.implantdentistinhouston.com/default.asp.

Good Dentures Can Relieve Your Pain!

Many people who have dentures also suffer from constant headaches. Why? Often it is because their false teeth do not properly support and balance their jaws. LifeSmile dentures are different. I create dentures for my patients that keep the jaw, muscles and teeth working together in harmony. In other words, these dentures act orthpedically, placing your mouth in the optimum position for your jaw and bite to work together the way nature intended. Our dentures are so comfortable, you’ll have much less pain, cramping and fatigue. And because they look so good, you’ll wear them more often, which is also important in keeping your jaw balanced and functioning optimally.
