Words cannot express enough, how wonderful, caring and professional Dr. Haigney and his staff are! After being rushed to the Huntersville hospital with an orbital fracture, broken nose and other facial damage, Dr. Haigney rushed me into surgery (on his day off I must add) and corrected all my problems. I only wish all doctors cared as much about their patients and their recovery as Dr. Haigney and his staff did. Thank you so much for everything! Your attention and compassion has helped me make my recovery as comfortable as possible. 5 star service!

Frequently Asked Questions

Sleep Apnea Surgery Questions & Answers

Have questions about sleep apnea surgery near Troutman, NC? Here are answers to the most common questions from patients in the Troutman area.

When is surgery recommended for sleep apnea? +
Surgery is typically considered for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) when CPAP therapy has been tried and is not tolerated, when oral appliances have not provided sufficient improvement, or when there is an identifiable anatomical obstruction. Surgery can address the root structural cause of airway obstruction rather than just managing symptoms.
What types of sleep apnea surgery are available? +
Surgical options include maxillomandibular advancement (MMA), which moves the upper and lower jaws forward to enlarge the airway; uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP), which removes excess tissue from the throat; genioglossus advancement; hyoid suspension; and tongue base reduction. Dr. Haigney will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your sleep study results and anatomical evaluation.
How effective is sleep apnea surgery? +
Success rates vary by procedure and patient selection. Maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) has the highest success rate among sleep apnea surgeries, with studies showing 85-100% significant improvement in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). Careful patient evaluation and procedure selection are key to achieving optimal outcomes.
What is recovery like after sleep apnea surgery? +
Recovery depends on the specific procedure. MMA surgery involves a jaw recovery similar to corrective jaw surgery — a soft diet for several weeks and full healing over 2-3 months. Less invasive procedures like UPPP have shorter recovery times of 1-2 weeks. Sleep quality improvements are typically noticeable once initial healing is complete.
