ENT Hadi Al-Jassim and his team of consultant are offering a treatment for snoring which is both quick and very cost effective. A genuine alternative to the otherwise painful surgery which many are forced to undertake for snoring, this treatment employs a simple administration of a ?3 injection into the roof of the mouth.
The procedure, which takes less than two minutes, works by hardening the soft tissues at the back of the mouth which vibrate and produce the noise while sleeping. Dr. Al-Jassim, who, along with his team of consultants, is the only one offering this treatment in Britain, explains, "Theinjection is cheap for the NHS to use and it is effective. I am delighted with the treatment because, until this, there has been no effective treatment other than surgery".
The treatment, formally known as Snoreplasty, can help people stop snoring for up-to a year. While some people find one dose enough for nearly a year, some other might need theinjection more often. It is safe to administer it as many as three times a year.
Snoring is a problem faced by many people, and made worse if the snorer is overweight. Figure say that nearly 15 billion Britons snore, a problem which can now be taken care of by a simpleinjection.
