Jetting off on a well-deserved vacation doesn’t mean you should ignore the signs of a serious condition like sleep apnea. Loud snoring, gasping for air at night, and feeling exhausted during the day aren’t just annoying — they could signal an underlying airway disorder. And if you’re experiencing a snore storm, chances are your sleep quality (and that of your travel companions) is taking a hit.

The Summer Risk Factor

Changes in environment, increased alcohol consumption, and a break from your normal routine can all make sleep apnea symptoms worse. That’s why summer vacations often bring more noticeable fatigue, irritability, and interrupted sleep for undiagnosed patients. 

If your partner complains about your snoring or you wake up feeling unrested even in paradise, it may be time to explore professional treatment.

Simple, Portable Solutions

Fortunately, there are effective and convenient options for managing sleep apnea that won’t interfere with your travel plans. Oral appliances custom-fitted by your dentist are small, easy to pack, and comfortable to wear at night. 

These devices help keep your airway open while you sleep — no CPAP machine required. That means you can breathe easier and wake up refreshed, wherever you are.
