    Frequently Asked Questions About Snoring Treatment in New Orleans

    Q. What causes snoring?

    A. Snoring occurs when airflow is partially blocked during sleep, causing the tissues of the throat and airway to vibrate. Common causes include nasal congestion, poor airway posture, sleep position, and underlying sleep-related breathing disorders. Because snoring can signal reduced oxygen flow, it should not always be dismissed as harmless.

    Q. When should I see a snoring doctor in New Orleans?

    A. If snoring is frequent, loud, or accompanied by daytime fatigue, gasping, or poor sleep quality, it may be time to see a snoring doctor New Orleans patients trust. Chronic snoring can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea or airway obstruction, both of which require professional evaluation.

    Q. Is there a real snoring cure?

    A. Many patients search for a snoring cure, but the best solution depends on the underlying cause. While lifestyle changes may help mild snoring, persistent snoring often requires targeted treatment to improve airway function and breathing during sleep.

    Q. What snoring treatment options are available?

    A. Effective snoring treatment may include custom oral appliances, airway-focused dental therapy, and addressing contributing factors such as jaw positioning or sleep apnea. At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of New Orleans, we provide non-surgical solutions designed to reduce airway obstruction and improve sleep quality.

    Q. How do I find snoring treatment near me?

    A. If you’ve been searching for snoring near me, a specialized clinic can help determine whether snoring is linked to TMJ dysfunction, airway narrowing, or sleep-disordered breathing. Our team offers comprehensive evaluations and personalized care plans for long-term relief.

    Q. Do you offer a New Orleans LA snoring clinic for sleep-related breathing issues?

    A. Yes. The TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of New Orleans serves as a trusted New Orleans LA snoring clinic, helping patients address chronic snoring and related conditions such as sleep apnea. Our goal is to help you breathe better, sleep deeper, and feel more rested.

    Q. Can a dentist help with snoring?

    A. Absolutely. Dental sleep medicine providers can treat snoring by using oral appliance therapy to support the jaw and airway during sleep. This approach is often a comfortable alternative for patients who cannot tolerate CPAP therapy.

      Having been diagnosed with sleep apnea in 2003, I was fitted for a head-gear breathing apparatus to alleviate the condition. After struggling with discomfort and lack of sleep, I discontinued use of the device. During a visit to my cardiologist in 2017, I was ordered to take another sleep test which revealed that the condition had reached a dangerous level and that it must be addressed immediately. I shared with Dr. G. Johnson my concerns from the past and he informed me that a new mouth piece for this sleep disorder was available and referred me to Dr. Terry Billings, DDS.

      I contacted Dr. Billings and during my first appointment with him, after a series of tests, he determined that I had another condition, TMJ, which would have to be treated before addressing the sleep disorder. He explained to me that I would have to wear mouthpieces, one by day and one by night, for twelve weeks to correct this issue. My instant reaction was that as a Catholic priest serving as the rector of the St. Louis Cathedral, I often celebrate televised Masses during which a mouthpiece would certainly be a deterrent. Dr. Billings patiently and understandingly explained that I really had no option but assured me that he would be able to make weekly adjustments to the mouthpieces that would help with these concerns.

      Now as I approach the final weeks of this treatment, I am pleased to share that I have been most satisfied with the care and attention of both Dr. Billings and his staff. The level of professionalism and proficiency which I have experienced in the weekly office visits have made a challenging issue bearable. It is amazing to me what the treatment of the TMJ has done for my overall health and well-being and as I now await the mouthpiece to address my sleep disorder I am most grateful to Dr. Billings for his diagnosis and excellent treatment during this period of preparation for it.

      You don’t hear that often about a dentist, but his attention to detail, meticulous examination and in-office testing led to uncovering a severely deviated septum that needed prompt surgical intervention. I’m forever grateful for him and his entire staff.

      Dr. Billings noticed that I checked yes to a few items on his questionnaire. When he began asking about my fatigue, sluggish feeling, etc. I blamed it on the kids and being a parent of two young boys. After his dental exam, he insisted that there could be more to my symptoms. After a chat, we decided to do an in-office Facial CT scan. It’s been 4 years since I had one, so I agreed. Everything was promptly scheduled, and their text reminders kept me on schedule.

      I did the CT scan, and Dr. Billings pointed out my severely deviated septum and recommended I get a prompt ENT evaluation. I brought a printout of the CT to my next appointment, and I ended up having sinus surgery 3 weeks later.

      Immediately after surgery, I knew something was different. After healing, I was sleeping better, breathing better and, sure enough, less sluggish and not reaching for my 3pm coffee. All from going to the dentist.

      My teeth look great, too!

      Dr. Billings has opened my eyes to understand that dentists are part of the entire medical team, and when using their training to the fullest, they can change lives.
