Specialist Care
Sleep is one of the most important factors in your health and wellbeing. It keeps your immune system strong, lowers stress and keeps you motivated. Poor quality of sleep due to snoring can affect your relationships as well as your own happiness, but at Lion Dental Centre in Stourbridge and Stafford, we are proud to offer our patients leading treatments to combat this issue. We are now offering a service with snoring specialists Somnomed, to improve the quality of sleep for patients that suffer from issues such as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea.
Apnoea is a condition in which the soft tissue and muscles deflate and collapse in your throat; creating blockages that make it increasingly difficult to breathe and stop all airflow for more than ten seconds at a time. This develops to Obstructive Sleep Apnoea, this time frame without oxygen results in the brain failing to send signals to breathe during sleep.
There is a range of symptoms that could signify OSA, from heavy and chaotic breathing to deep snoring. If you notice that it is becoming an issue visit your GP they can advise the best course of action. If this involves a summoned anti-snoring device feel free to book in for our free consultation.
Lion Dental Centre recognise that an inability to breathe functionally is an uncomfortable and worrying issue for many, and are pleased to offer a solution after discussing the matter with your GP. If after an assessment, we conclude that the Somnomed is a procedure that would suit your needs, it will benefit you considerably as the treatment guarantees significant relief with exceptional comfort.
Somnomed mouthguards are crafted to suit you, with acrylic and have a patented flexible lining, that is not susceptible to bad odour and will not discolour over time. Quiet, and discreet Somnomed allows patients normal opening and closing of the mouth, allowing patients to live their daily life to the fullest. OSA patients can relax with the knowledge that their sleep will improve dramatically.
If you have any queries or think the Somnomed treatment would enhance your life, we can happily book you in for a consultation at Lion Dental clinics in Stafford and Stourbridge

Snoring devices can be made for anyone that suffers from sleep apnoea (OSA). There’s a range of symptoms that may signify OSA, from heavy and chaotic breathing to deep snoring. If you notice this becoming an issue, visit your GP they will often refer you to us, or a specialist depending on the severity.
The symptoms of sleep apnoea usually happen while sleeping, these include: breathing stopping and starting, making gasping, snorting or choking noises, waking up frequently and loud snoring. While awake you may also experience tiredness, lack of concentration, mood swings and headaches as you wake up.
Temporary devices or, ‘boil and bite devices are inexpensive and readily available. However, they have been proven to be ineffective. People come in all shapes and sizes and a custom made Mandibular Advancement Splint such as a SomnoDent has a much greater chance of effective treatment to relieve sleep Apnoea.
To have a device made, you simply need to visit our Stourbridge practice for a consultation, we then arrange your appointments and take care of the treatment for you. It’s a simple process that requires impressions to be taken and a series of appointments to ensure the perfect fit.
