Are you suffering from Sleep Apnea?

San Jose dentist

Sleep apnea is a common disorder that affects millions of men, women and children but is often undiagnosed says Herndon dentist. There are three types of apnea: obstructive, central, and mixed. Out of the three, obstructive is the most widespread. Regardless of the differences in the root cause of each type, in all three, people with untreated sleep apnea will stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or even longer says San Jose dentist.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is caused by a blockage of the airway, usually when the soft tissue in the rear of the throat collapses and closes during sleep. In central sleep apnea, the airway is not actually blocked; however the brain fails to signal the muscles to breathe. Mixed apnea, as the name implies, is a combination of the other two. With each apnea event, the brain briefly arouses the person with sleep apnea in order for them to resume breathing, but accordingly sleep is extremely fragmented and of very poor quality. Sleep apnea is very common, and it is estimated to affect more than twelve million Americans, according to the National Institute of Health. According to McLean dentist, some risk factors include being male, overweight, and over the age of forty, and having a short neck, however sleep apnea can strike anyone at any age, even children. Several treatment options exist, and research into additional options continues. The link to dental issues has proven to be significant.

Boulder dentist says that most people suffering with sleep apnea may be unaware of these events, even though they may happen as many as hundreds of times a night, however if snoring is involved, their family is almost certainly aware of the problem. Unaware or not, these airless episodes last 10 to 30 seconds and may cause the patient lots of trouble, especially in the daytime, having been robbed of a restful nights sleep.

If you suspect that you have sleep apnea and need to see a doctor about your symptoms, make sure to check with your primary care physician and/or you may be referred to a sleep specialist.

DJ Samantha Ronson Calls a Los Angeles Locksmith

Earlier this week, SFGate reports Samantha Ronson's family planning to obtain a restraining order against the DJ's ex-girlfriend Lindsay Lohan following the couple's breakup. They say that the actress had tried to crash a family event held at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles after she had been asked not to attend (booking a room at the hotel right below the Ronsons’ room, which is standard stalker-behavior), and Samantha’s sister Charlotte told authorities that Lohan has similarly followed their brother Mark around. On Saturday, a locksmith was reportedly spotted changing the locks on doors of the Hollywood Hills home Ronson shared with Lohan. This was in April.

In March, Samantha Ronson had to call a locksmith after locking herself in her bathroom as she was about to go out to a spinning gig at One Sunset. While according to CelebWire news the DJ appeared somewhat bashful as she came out of her home in Los Angeles residential locksmith work is done quite routinely in metropolitan homes for all kinds of people: corporate execs, designers, teachers, electrical technicians, physicians, and club DJs on the look out for estranged ex-girlfriends on the prowl.

Meanwhile, Fox news reports that in spite of the slumping economy, or perhaps because of it, sales are increasing for the locksmith and safe businesses. A qualified Beverly Hills locksmith company representative we spoke with recently tells us people are taking security matters into their own hands when it comes to protecting their valuables, causing a big demand for residential safes. In Woodland Hills locksmiths report that they have their hands full with customer demand on safe purchases as well as those asking for help with their safes or door locks (like Ronson).

In recent news, Ronson's mother, Ann Dexter-Jones, and Ronson's twin sister, fashion designer Charlotte Ronson, have asked officials at the Beverly Hills Police Department to keep Lohan away from Samantha.

DJ Ronson has since changed her relationship status to “single” on her MySpace page.

The couple has been dating since May 2008. Whether or not Ronson has her favorite Los Angeles locksmith’s phone number on her speed dial remains unknown.

Bad Dental Health Can Provoke Medical Problems

A healthy mouth and a healthy body go hand in hand. Good dental health is more than just cosmetic, it is the overall maintenance of the body says Woodland Hills cosmetic dentist. According to the Surgeon General Report on Oral Health, there are clear connections between chronic oral infections and heart and lung diseases, stroke, low-birth-weight and premature births. Oral health and general health are inseparable, a lot of people ignore signs and symptoms of oral disease and dysfunction. A person cannot be healthy without oral health says Encino cosmetic dentist

According to Lead Dental Assistant Christine Chapman, “Oral prevention is like changing oil in a car, instead of waiting and having to change the transmission, you get regular oil changes to keep the car running. If you don’t get cleanings, you may end up paying more for services, like a root canal.” Woodland Hills braces orthodontist recommends scheduling cleanings every six months. The reason why dentists recommend every six months is because that is when cavities start to grow. Getting a check-up every six months gives room to catch infections before they get worse.Tarzana cosmetic dentist says the following is good care for oral hygiene: Brush your teeth twice a day with ADA-accepted fluoride toothpaste. Replace your toothbrush every three or four months or if the bristles are frayed. Clean between teeth daily with floss. This helps remove plaque and food particles between the teeth and under the gum line.

OMG, Did Your Neighbor Get A Nose Job?

Plastic surgery has been becoming more accessible to everyone due to increased disposable income (even in this downturn) and our assertive, independent culture especially here in California. According to a well-known local Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon we recently met with, it’s common for people to give vouchers for cosmetic procedures as birthday gifts to friends and family. He explains that plastic surgery is (and has been for some time) not only for the rich and famous elite, and that chances are, you’ve come across someone today that has had some work done while you ran errands or went on your lunch break.

From Botox in Los Angeles to Beverly Hills breast implants and everything in between, city dwellers and suburbanites alike flock to plastic surgery specialists in southern California to find the right procedure for their individual needs. Lawyers, teachers, public relations specialists, medical professionals, and your soccermom neighbor all have walked through the doors at local cosmetic surgery centers all across Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, explains our resident expert Los Angeles plastic surgeon when describing his personal clientele and experience.

When we want a steak dinner, we go and get our grubbing on; when we’re in the mood for a nice new pair of designer shades, we drop by the sunglasses shop at the mall. Facelifts, nose jobs, tummy tucks and in Los Angeles breast implants in particular, all remain possible and affordable options for people who want to do a little something for themselves, and everyone, including your neighbor next door deserves a little fantastic something every once in a while.

Not getting a restful nights’ sleep?

Savannah dentist
According to Denver dentist Dr. Kemmet, Sleep apnea is a common disorder that affects millions of men, women and children but is often undiagnosed. There are three types of apnea: obstructive, central, and mixed. Out of the three, Savannah dentist says that obstructive is the most widespread. Regardless of the differences in the root cause of each type, in all three, people with untreated sleep apnea will stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or even longer.

Some Symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

  • Severe snoring. Most people with obstructive apnea are likely to snore between episodes. Of course, not everyone who snores has OSA, but severe snoring combined with one or more of the following symptoms is a good suggestion that that person should see their physician and request a sleep study.
  • Dry, sore throat and nasal passages in the morning upon awakening. A look in the mirror may expose a swollen and red uvula.
  • Multiple sudden awakenings during sleep. When a person ceases to breathe during sleep, they may wake up, often with a gasp, several times during the night. This may happen literally hundreds of times a night, or perhaps just a few dozen. Not everyone with severe OSA experiences sudden awakenings since many sufferers are simply brought to a lighter level of sleep in which they regain the muscle tone in their throat so that breathing may begin properly again.
  • Excessive daytime sleepiness. (hypersomnia) Even if a person with sleep apnea does not completely awaken many times a night, he or she must continuously rise to a lighter level of sleep in order to regain enough control of the throat muscles to relieve the obstruction. This severely reduces the quality of the sleep. Patients with OSA often complain of waking up feeling like they had never slept at all. They often feel worse after taking a nap than they did before napping.
  • Restless muscles during sleep. A lack of oxygen in the blood causes muscles to become restless. Persons who suffer with sleep apnea often find their legs in nearly continuous motion during the night, or they may notice themselves kicking during the night.
  • Impotence, and/or decreased interest in sex. Sleep apnea has wide ranging physiological and psychological effects, including high blood pressure, slowed heart rate, changes in appetite and diminished sexual arousal.
  • Difficulty staying asleep (insomnia)
  • Impaired memory
  • Impaired concentration
  • Poor job performance
  • Sudden death from heart attack or stroke.

How does the doctor determine if I have Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

According to Seattle dentist Dr. Coleman, most doctors give a sleep test, called polysomnography. It is usually done to diagnose sleep apnea. There are two kinds of polysomnograms. An overnight polysomnography test involves monitoring brain waves, muscle tension, eye movement, respiration, oxygen level in the blood and audio monitoring. (for snoring, gasping, etc.) The second kind of polysomnography test is a home monitoring test. A Sleep Technologist hooks you up to all the electrodes and instructs you on how to record your sleep with a computerized polysomnograph that you take home and return in the morning. They are painless tests that are usually covered by insurance.

How is Sleep Apnea treated?

Mild Sleep Apnea is usually treated by some behavioral changes. Losing weight, sleeping on your side are often recommended. There are oral mouth devices (that help keep the airway open) on the market that may help to reduce snoring in three different ways. Some devices (1) bring the jaw forward or (2) elevate the soft palate or (3) retain the tongue (from falling back in the airway and blocking breathing).

Sleep Apnea is a progressive condition says Scotts Valley dentist Dr. Ebrahimian, it gets worse as you age and should not be taken lightly.

Are you experiencing excessive hair loss during the summer?

hair restoration Los AngelesThose with thinning hair finds that hair loss worsens in summer according to hair restoration Los Angeles surgeon, Dr. Parsa Mohebi. They will find more hair on the pillow, hair clogging up the shower drain, falling on every surface and while combing hair.

Because of the heat, there’s increased oil production. Mixed with dead skin cells in the scalp, the oil forms a thick film that covers the pores of the scalp, suffocating hair follicles and causing hair to die and fall off in bunches says hair transplant Los Angeles specialist.
 
Here are some handy summer hair care tips to prevent damage to your hair:
  • Intake of lots of water hydrates your system during summer, which provides natural health to your hair.
  • Avoid using additional heat on your hair.
  • Chlorine causes severe dryness to your hair. So it is recommended that before going for swimming dampen your hair, so that it reduces the absorption of chlorine. Also, after swimming, you use a clarifying shampoo to wash off the chlorine residues on your hair.
  • Avoid hot water hair wash, as the heat can damage your hair. Use cool water instead.
  • Avoid using alcohol on your hair during summer, as it tends to dry your hair to a great extent. It is therefore advisable to use natural products instead.
  • Shampooing your hair everyday deprives the hair of its natural moisture. So, try not to shampoo your hair daily.
  • Deep condition your hair after each shampoo wash.
To get more information on hair loss prevention or hair restoration, contact a hair surgeon Los Angeles for a free consultation.

Anti-Aging Secrets

Antiaging-Specialist


Day by day as we grow older, our bodies tend to process nutrients less efficiency and our metabolism starts to slow down which means we must increase our nutrient consumption and fitness if we want to be healthy and live into our 80s and 90s. Some go with natural anti-aging secrets such as a balanced diet, fitness and good skin care habits while others may need a little help to increase strength with DHEA replacement or hormone therapy.

Growth hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a type of treatment where the body is given hormones to prevent or treat certain medical conditions. Most of the time, treatment is used for symptoms of menopause in women and to prevent osteoporosis. Testosterone Therapy is used to treat men and help them to feel younger and give them more energy. The hormones used in HRT are synthetic hormones, which means they are created in a laboratory (rather than by the body), but they act like natural hormones once inside the body.

If you feel like you maybe hormone deficient, ask your doctor to give the necessary tests to see if you qualify for hormone therapy.
