About Sleep & Snoring Disorders
Sleep-related breathing disorders, including habitual snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), affect millions of people and often go undiagnosed. While occasional snoring may be harmless, chronic or loud snoring can indicate airway obstruction during sleep. This may lead to interrupted breathing patterns, reduced oxygen levels, and poor sleep quality.
Common symptoms associated with sleep and snoring disorders include:
- Loud snoring
- Choking or gasping during sleep
- Excessive daytime drowsiness
- Morning headaches
- Poor concentration and memory issues
- Mood changes or irritability
These conditions not only impact sleep but may also increase the risk of serious health problems such as hypertension, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes if left untreated.

We offer comprehensive evaluation and treatment for sleep-related concerns, bringing together the expertise of Pulmonology, ENT, and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. This collaborative approach ensures that patients receive accurate diagnoses and effective, individualized care under one roof.
Diagnosis
At Emirates Hospitals Group, we offer comprehensive Sleep Study (Polysomnography) and clinical evaluation services at our specialized Sleep Lab to diagnose the cause and severity of sleep and snoring disorders. During your consultation, our sleep medicine experts will:
- Conduct a thorough physical and clinical assessment
- Review your medical and sleep history
- Recommend a sleep study, either at home or in a lab, to monitor vital signs, brain activity, breathing patterns, and oxygen levels during sleep
Our state-of-the-art sleep studies are designed to be comfortable and accurate, helping us detect conditions like sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, and insomnia.
Treatment
Treatment options are customized based on the underlying cause and severity of the sleep disorder. At Emirates Hospitals Group, we provide a wide range of evidence-based solutions, including:
- Lifestyle Modifications: Weight loss, sleep hygiene education, and positional therapy to reduce snoring and improve sleep.
- Medical Devices: Use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machines for moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea, which helps keep the airway open during sleep.
- Oral Appliances: Custom-fitted dental devices that reposition the jaw and tongue to maintain open airways.
- Surgical Treatments: In select cases, minimally invasive ENT procedures may be performed to remove obstructions or correct structural abnormalities in the airway.
- Behavioral Therapy: For patients suffering from insomnia, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) may be recommended.
Our multidisciplinary team works closely with each patient to ensure that the treatment plan is effective, comfortable, and sustainable, helping restore restful sleep and enhance quality of life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Snoring occurs when airflow is partially blocked during sleep, causing vibrations in the throat tissues. While occasional snoring can be harmless, persistent or loud snoring may indicate a more serious condition such as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and should be medically evaluated.
A sleep study, or polysomnography, is a non-invasive test conducted overnight to monitor brain waves, oxygen levels, heart rate, breathing patterns, and body movements during sleep. If you’re experiencing excessive daytime fatigue, loud snoring, or gasping during sleep, your doctor may recommend a sleep study to diagnose possible sleep disorders.
Yes. Many snoring and sleep apnea cases can be treated with non-surgical options such as CPAP therapy, oral appliances, weight management, or positional therapy. Surgery is considered only in select cases where structural issues are involved or conservative treatments are not effective.
CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) is a machine that delivers a constant stream of air through a mask to keep the airway open during sleep. It is the most common and effective treatment for moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Symptoms of sleep apnea include loud snoring, choking or gasping during sleep, frequent awakenings, morning headaches, and excessive daytime sleepiness. If you or your partner notice these signs, it’s important to consult a sleep specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
