Do You Snore Loudly? A Sleep Apnea Home Test May Be Right for You

Schedule your no-risk consultation to learn if you are at risk for sleep apnea.

Testing Sleep Apnea From the Comfort of Your Own Home

If you are wondering whether your snoring warrants sleep apnea treatment, you can take a sleep apnea home test to determine whether you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and if so, to what degree. Depending upon the symptoms you are exhibiting and your risk factors, Dr. Henry Ernst may recommend the ARES sleep apnea home test.

What is the ARES Sleep Apnea Home Test?

The ARES is a comfortable wireless recorder that you wear on your forehead overnight or for several nights. ARES identifies physiological changes that indicate the presence of sleep apnea, such as:

Blood oxygen saturation
Pulse rate
Airflow
Head movement
Position of the head
Snoring levels

The sleep apnea home test will also help Dr. Ernst discover the severity of your condition, ranging from minimal to severe, so that he can more accurately determine the most effective sleep apnea treatment for you.

The Benefits of a Sleep Apnea Home Test

There are typically two ways to determine whether you need sleep apnea treatment. You can visit a lab where they will study your sleep patterns or you can take an at-home test. Why might you prefer to utilize a sleep apnea home test instead of testing in a lab setting?

More Convenient

A sleep apnea home test is more convenient than sleeping at a lab.

More Accurate Data

Home tests record your sleep data in your usual sleeping environment.

More Affordable

At-home testing can cost less money while offering the same results.

Do You Need Sleep Apnea Treatment?

If you have been suffering from symptoms such as daytime fatigue, chronic headaches, loud snoring, or waking up gasping for air, you may need sleep apnea treatment. Schedule a free consultation with Dr. Ernst to determine whether you should take a sleep apnea home test. Your initial consultation will include rhinometer and pharyngometer testing, a medical history and risk discussion, and a sleep apnea evaluation. Call our office to reserve your appointment. We are pleased to offer late evening hours for your convenience.

I have been renovating the back of the office and decided to have my teeth cleaned. It was one of the best experiences I have had in a dental chair. I can say from spending not just an hour or so but weeks with this staff that they are a special bunch. From the front desk to the Doc these are genuinely caring and friendly folks. If you are searching for a great dentist in the area, I would highly recommend Pleasant Plains Dental! P.S. I almost fell asleep during my cleaning!!

My first visit was an emergency appointment. I was taken right away. From the minute I walked in I felt very comfortable and I knew that the patient came first. My problem was taken care of immediately and pain free the entire time. The procedures and follow up were explained very well and any questions I had were welcomed. We have been in Indian Trail for almost 5 years and have had negative experiences with dental care here so far. I have found my dentist at Pleasant Plains. I am very very pleased and highly recommend Dr. Ernst and his staff.
