Sleep Questionnaire
There are a number of tools sleep medicine professionals use to determine the nature and extent of sleep disorders. A simple self test commonly used as an indicator of poor sleep is the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. This scoring system is used to determine a person's level of daytime sleepiness.
A score of 10 or more is considered sleepy. A score of 18 or more is very sleepy. If you score 10 or more on this test, you should consider whether you are obtaining adequate sleep, need to improve your sleep hygiene and/or need to see a sleep specialist. These issues should be discussed with your personal physician.
Use the following scale to choose the most appropriate number for each situation, then add up the totals to obtain your score. Begin the evaluation by answering the first question below:
Are you the snorer or is it your bed partner who snores?
Our Technology Center
Being kept awake at night by your partner’s snoring can be very disturbing. Some snoring may be so loud that no one in your house can have a restful night sleep! Snoring is common and, in many cases, relatively harmless. Nearly everyone snores at one time or another. Loud or habitual snoring can disrupt sleep and may be a sign of a much more serious sleep disorder called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) where your airway becomes completely blocked and breathing stops.
At Sleep Dentists, we will screen you for the possibility of any sleep breathing disorders and recommend appropriate treatment. This visit is complimentary and if you do need further treatment, medical insurance covers all or most of the cost.
