What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea is a serious medical condition that can affect your quality of life and ability to sleep peacefully throughout the night. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep apnea and occurs when the airways in the throat become blocked. Central Sleep Apnea (CSA) is less common and occurs when the brain stops sending signals to the muscles to breathe. Dr. Mark Iacobelli offers “in-home sleep studies” to help diagnose which type of sleep apnea you may be suffering from. No need to spend a few nights at a sleep lab. Get tested at home where you are most comfortable! Dr. Mark Iacobelli offers treatment options that can help you get rid of the cumbersome and restrictive CPAP machine while still treating your loud snoring and sleep apnea at his practice.

What is Nightlase?
NightLase is non-invasive laser treatment to provide a solution to snoring, exclusively using Fotona lasers. Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the airways become blocked, resulting in snoring and disrupted sleep. With Nightlase, laser energy heats the soft palate tissues of the airways which helps them to shrink and open. This procedure is non-surgical and has no downtime.
NIGHTLASE snoring treatment is a fast, non-invasive,
and friendly way of increasing the quality of sleep.

What is EZ Sleep?
EZ Sleep In-Home Testing is a sleep study that is done in the comfort of your home, providing a convenient process for diagnosis and treatment. Because you can perform this test in the comfort of your own bed, the results are typically more accurate because your sleep conditions reflect a “normal” night of sleep. Your dentist at Iacobelli & Sala will then review your results, checking to see if you are getting enough oxygen during your sleep or if you may have a sleep disordered breathing problem, like sleep apnea. You will discuss treatment options upon receiving your diagnosis.
EZ Sleep In-Home Testing provides a convenient & simple,
yet effective service with a streamlined process –
from taking your test, getting diagnosed and beginning treatment.
