Having a Surgery to Stop Snoring

There are cases in which basic remedies and over-the counter products do not solve the problem of snoring.
If taking these treatments has not shown results in a long time then you may need to go for a surgery to stop snoring.
There are many different types of surgeries that can help you to get rid of snoring permanently.
However, the best option will depend on factors such as the reasons for your snoring and your body type.
Surgeons who specialize in throat, nose and ears are called otolaryngologist.
The most common type of surgery associated with snoring is Laser Assisted Uvula Palatoplasty which is often referred to as LAUP.
In this procedure, laser beams are used to cut the uvula away so that it doesn't get in contact with your tongue which can be the major reason for your snoring if your uvula blocks your air ways during sleep.
Somnoplasty is another surgical procedure which reduces the size of your uvula.
When the size of the uvula is reduced, it will not come in contact with your tongue and hence you will get rid of snoring.
Tongue suspension, also known as Repose is a recent surgical procedure which prevents the tongue from getting back into the throat during sleep and blocking the air passages.
Surgeons insert a small screw in the lower jaw bone and it keeps the tongue in place.
In Coblation-Channeling procedure, radio frequencies are used to minimize the size of soft and muscle tissues in the air passages which usually obstructs your breathing.
The last procedure is called nasal deviation surgery in which the blockages in the nose are removed.
It really improves your breathing during the day as well as in the night.
However, before deciding to undergo any serious surgical procedures, you need to consult with a doctor and get the best opinion and best advice on which type of surgery you will need to undergo to get rid of snoring.
