At Savannah Dental, we believe your oral health and airway health go hand in hand. For many people, issues like snoring or sleep-disordered breathing aren’t just nightly inconveniences—they’re signs of an underlying airway problem that can impact long-term health. That’s why we are proud to offer NightLase, an advanced laser therapy that gently tightens oral tissues to reduce snoring and improve sleep quality.
This non-invasive treatment helps patients breathe easier, sleep better, and enjoy healthier lives—without surgery or downtime.
What Is NightLase®?
NightLase is a laser treatment that targets the tissues in the throat and soft palate that cause airway obstruction. Using safe, precise laser energy, NightLase stimulates collagen production, which tightens and strengthens these tissues over time. This creates a more open airway, reducing the vibrations that lead to snoring and minimizing the collapse of tissues associated with sleep apnea.
Unlike other treatments that require surgery or cumbersome oral appliances, NightLase is performed quickly in our office, is comfortable, and requires no anesthesia or recovery period.
Who Can Benefit From NightLase®?
NightLase is an excellent option for patients who struggle with snoring, mild to moderate sleep apnea, or sleep-disordered breathing. You may be a candidate if you experience:
- Loud or frequent snoring that disrupts your or your partner’s sleep.
- Daytime fatigue, brain fog, or irritability due to poor sleep.
- Waking up frequently during the night.
- A history of mouth breathing during sleep.
- Discomfort wearing CPAP devices or oral appliances.
Our team will perform a thorough evaluation of your airway and sleep concerns to determine if NightLase is right for you.
How NightLase® Works
NightLase treatment is typically completed in a series of short sessions. During each visit, the laser is applied gently to the tissues of the throat and soft palate. The treatment is safe, minimally uncomfortable, and feels like a warm sensation. The process works in stages:
- Stimulating natural collagen production in the tissues.
- Tightening and strengthening soft palate and airway structures.
- Gradually improving airflow and reducing airway collapse during sleep.
Patients often notice improvements after the very first session, with results building throughout the treatment series.
The Benefits Of Choosing NightLase®
NightLase offers many advantages compared to traditional approaches for snoring and sleep apnea:
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment.
- No downtime or anesthesia required.
- Comfortable sessions that take less than 30 minutes.
- Noticeable improvements in sleep quality.
- Long-lasting results with maintenance treatments as needed.
- Increased comfort compared to CPAP machines or bulky appliances.
By improving breathing during sleep, NightLase not only reduces snoring but also enhances overall energy, focus, and quality of life.
NightLase® & Airway Dentistry
At Savannah Dental, we specialize in airway-focused dentistry, which means we look at how your breathing affects your overall health. NightLase fits seamlessly into this approach by addressing one of the most common airway concerns: snoring and sleep-disordered breathing.
Because we understand the connection between the airway, oral function, and long-term health, our team is uniquely qualified to provide NightLase treatment as part of a comprehensive plan to improve sleep, breathing, and wellness.
What To Expect After Treatment
Most patients notice a significant reduction in snoring and improved sleep after their first few sessions. Because the treatment stimulates natural tissue tightening, results continue to improve over time.
NightLase does not require any special recovery—patients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment. Depending on your individual needs, a full course of NightLase may include multiple sessions, with maintenance treatments recommended every 12 to 18 months to sustain optimal results.
