Snoring
Snoring is not just a social nuisance — it may be a sign of serious underlying health issues such as obstructive sleep apnea. It affects both the quality of your sleep and the well-being of those around you. At Dr. Fatih Turan’s clinic, with over 20 years of experience, snoring is thoroughly assessed and treated using modern, effective methods tailored to individual needs.
What Causes Snoring?
Snoring occurs when airflow through the mouth or nose is physically obstructed during sleep. Common causes include:
-
Nasal congestion or a deviated septum
-
Overweight or excess tissue around the neck
-
Alcohol or sedative use
-
Sleep position (especially lying on the back)
-
Enlarged tonsils or uvula
-
Anatomical jaw issues
-
Sleep apnea syndrome
How is Snoring Diagnosed?
At our clinic, a detailed examination is performed, including ENT evaluation and, if needed, polysomnography (sleep study) to determine the severity and type of snoring or associated apnea. This helps to create a personalised and effective treatment plan.
Treatment Options for Snoring
✅ Medical Treatments: Nasal sprays, allergy medications, or decongestants for nasal obstructions
✅ CPAP Therapy: Provides positive airway pressure during sleep, especially for sleep apnea patients
✅ Radiofrequency Applications: Reduces vibration in the soft palate or uvula
✅ Surgical Interventions: For structural issues such as deviated septum, large tonsils, or nasal polyps
