BASED ON YOUR RESPONSES TO THE ONLINE SLEEP RISK ASSESSMENT, YOUR CHILD SEEMS TO HAVE SOME OF THE TYPICAL SYMPTOMS OF SLEEP DISORDERED BREATHING.
Sleep Disordered Breathing is a little known medical condition that results from a constricted airway during sleep. Kids who suffer with this disorder are literally gasping for air while they sleep. When their little brains don’t get the oxygen they need, their bodies don’t get refreshing and re-energizing sleeps. It’s no wonder that it leads to growth, development, psychological, and behavioural issues during the day.
It breaks our hearts to see so many little patients who have symptoms of Sleep Disordered Breathing (like snoring, allergies, teeth crowding, poor focus in school, and behavioural issues) but are mis-diagnosed and treated with unnecessary therapy, braces, surgery, or medication.
That’s why I’ve made it my mission go raise our community’s awareness of Sleep Disordered Breathing!
