NightLase® - Spanish
𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐞® With the Fotona laser, we are able to assist patients who suffer from sleep apnea symptoms with a procedure called NightLase®. NightLase® is a minimally invasive treatment that reduces the effects of sleep apnea and causes less snoring without the need for surgery inside the mouth. In order to open the airways, the Fotona laser gently heats up the collagen within the soft tissues of the mouth. These tissues are known to collapse and block the airways. Through the use of NightLase®, the collagen in the mouth is tightened, resulting in the expansion of the airway. As a result, more air can flow freely and snoring is reduced. The majority of patients experience positive effects and better sleep the same day they undergo NightLase® treatment. If NightLase® is combined with another form of sleep apnea treatment, such as CPAP or an oral appliance, it can be most effective in providing a healthy, restful night’s sleep. This treatment is an alternative procedure for patients who cannot tolerate CPAP and or Mandibular Advancement Devices. Or, has been recommended as a co-therapy/adjunct therapy. NightLase® has been found to be a therapy that is beneficial in reducing snoring and OSA or its side effects by opening the airway. Studies show that NightLase® can reduce snoring by 50% on average. 95.2% of people state improvement in snoring and 57.1% reported significant improvement in snoring after treatment. (Journal of the Laser and Health Academy ISSN 1855-9913 Vol 2013, No.1). CBCT analysis shows an average of 20-22% increase in airway volume.
