Sleep affecting work?
I'm sure I'm not the only "night owl" on this board, but has anyone reached the point of where being a "night owl" / staying up late has affected their work life?

Perhaps calling out, missing your alarm clock, arriving to work late, falling asleep on the job, etc?

It's been happening far too often for me. Luckily, I have a bunch of time off saved that I can use, so I just bang out, but overall it's just a terrible rut to be in.

Although weight gain is the #1 contributor to sleep apnea, losing weight doesn't always cure it. I know a marathon runner that has apnea and has to wear a CPAP. That being said, I need to lose some weight and hopefully that will help.

I also wear a dental appliance because I grind my teeth, the one I have sets the bottom jaw forward to keep the airway open. It used to work really good, I think I might need to get it adjusted.

Have any of you guys talked to your dentist about sleep issues? I've been doing a lot of sleep stuff for pts with different mouthguards. Works really well.

They work well.

It's a pain to go thru the sleep studies and stuff to see what's actually needed. ONce you get it dialed in though, it can really be a life saver.

I was told that I grind my teeth at night and that I should totally buy a $700 mouth guard to help stop the damage. I bought a $20 sleep mouth guard from Walmart. Haven't used it in over a year now.

I spoke and went to visit Toogue a dentist and frequent CPer. We spoke about a mouth piece. After He saw my sleep study results, he had doubts a mouth piece would be sufficent.

Go ahead and grind your teeth down and see how much that costs to fix them you jerk.

Yeah sometimes it requires a breather and sometimes there are more drastic issues.

I don't get into the crazy difficult ones, they can get brutal.

Dude, don't mess with it. I had to have two caps installed because I cracked previously-filled teeth grinding on them at night.

Caps cost A LOT more than $700.

I just need to have a sleep study done. I haven't gotten good sleep since I was in the Air Force and now I'm forced to use OTC sleep aids to sleep. It's been like that for the last 10+ years. ****ing had insomnia for 5 days straight this past weekend and it ****ing sucked.

It's a TCO thing.

My mouthguard actually cost about $1100, AFTER insurance.

I've had it for 12 years and it's as good today as the day it was made.

You'll grind that $20 mouth guard down to unusable in a month or two and need a new one.

Conservatively, if you spent $20 every two months at Walmart, that's $120 a year. Over 12 years, that's $1440. You could buy TWO dental appliances for that.

Keep in mind that my mouthguard is for both sleep apnea AND grinding. That's why it was so expensive. It was also 12 years ago, when only 1 dentist within 2 hours of me was doing them.
