Snoring Treatment in Calgary SW
Snoring Treatment
Snoring affects the sleep quality of everyone in the household – not just the person snoring. At Westside, we offer two effective, non-invasive dental solutions for snoring: Solea laser soft palate therapy, which tightens the tissue that vibrates and causes snoring, and custom oral appliances, which hold the jaw in a position that keeps the airway open during sleep.
How we treat it: Solea laser snoring treatment applies gentle laser energy to the soft palate to firm and tighten the tissue – reducing its tendency to vibrate and collapse. The procedure takes approximately 15 minutes, requires no needles or incisions, and has no downtime. For patients whose snoring is related to jaw position and airway geometry, a custom-fitted oral appliance repositions the lower jaw to maintain airway patency during sleep.
Note: If you suspect sleep apnea rather than simple snoring, a physician assessment and sleep test are recommended first. Dr. Sabah, our on-site family physician, can conduct this through our Advanced Sleep program.
This care is provided on the medical side of Westside under Dr. Sabah Jarullah, family physician. Every patient begins with a medical assessment; insured visits are covered under the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan. No referral needed.
How Westside helps with snoring treatment
Sleep and airway concerns at Westside begin with a physician sleep assessment and, where indicated, a one-night home sleep test reviewed by our sleep team and Dr. Sabah Jarullah. For snoring without apnea, options include Solea Sleep laser treatment of the soft palate, EMFACE® muscle training under the chin (a physician-directed wellness protocol) and a custom oral appliance; where a test shows apnea, treatment is planned with Dr. Sabah.
We are in West Springs, Calgary SW – Suite 1120, 930 – 85th Street SW – serving Aspen Woods, Cougar Ridge, Springbank and the surrounding communities.

Children and sleep – from age 2
We assess children from age 2. Snoring, mouth breathing, restless sleep, bedwetting and daytime behaviour changes can all point to sleep-disordered breathing, and the earlier it is found the simpler it is to help. After a physician assessment with Dr. Sabah Jarullah and a dental airway exam with Dr. Zubaida Hussain, options for children include laser frenectomy for tongue- or lip-tie, myofunctional therapy, growth-guiding myofunctional appliances such as Myobrace® and Myosa® (different from the adult oral appliance), palatal expansion and other adjunctive therapies – with a home sleep test where appropriate.
Questions we hear about snoring treatment
Do I need a referral?
No. In Alberta, sleep apnea must be diagnosed by a physician – our family physician reviews every test and meets you to discuss the results.
Is sleep testing covered?
Physician sleep assessments are insured under the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan; any private costs for testing or appliances are explained before you book.
What if I cannot tolerate CPAP?
A custom oral appliance is a comfortable, portable alternative for many patients, and Solea Sleep can reduce snoring without apnea.
