Sleep is defined as a naturally recurring state characterized by altered consciousness, relatively inhibited sensory activity and inhibition of nearly all voluntary muscles. Poor sleep quality results in excessive daytime sleepiness, impaired health status, depressive symptoms and poor quality of life. Upper airway sleep disorders (UASD) are becoming commonly recognized by medical and dental communities. Snoring is a mild form of these disorders. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a severe yet under-diagnosed sleep related breathing disorder. It is characterized by repetitive complete or partial occlusion of the upper airway, resulting in apnea, hypopnea, oxygen desaturation and sleep fragmentation. OSA can lead to a series of systemic, dental and psychological problems if left untreated. Efforts have been made to pin-point the symptoms to effectively evaluate this disorder and to efficiently treat it. This review gives a brief description on the evaluation criteria, associated systemic complications and series of invasive and non invasive treatment options for management and improvement of individuals affected with OSA.
