To our valued patients,
Due to the recent changes with the COVID-19 virus, we, at Golden Heart Dental, have decided to do our part in helping stop the spread of this disease. The American Dental Association and the Alaska Dental Association have both recommended all dentists postpone any routine or elective dental treatment until April 8th in hopes of reducing the chances of having a patient or staff member contract the virus.
We value your oral and overall health and want to provide you with the best care possible and at this time, that means closing our doors for the majority of dental treatments. As this is an ever-changing and uncharted situation, we will be keeping you posted on changes that we implement in our office.
We will be available for EMERGENCY TREATMENT throughout this time which you can activate by calling us at 907-328-0868. If you have any tooth pain or trauma do not hesitate to contact us. We would also love to start scheduling patients (new and established) for mid-April and beyond to ensure we are able to schedule anyone that is in need of routine dental care.
We pray that you all remain safe and healthy during this time of uncertainty.
- The Team at Golden Heart Dental

This year the largest study ever looked at how snoring and oxygen deprivation affect the brain.
It’s pretty scary stuff, and a powerful marker of how important sleep is for the brain. These are direct measures of what is happening in the body during sleep. Today the evidence is overwhelmingly supporting the strict understanding of correct breathing during sleep.
What did they find? The data of 775 people median age 55 revealed that snoring related oxygen starvation during sleep, shrinks grey matter in specific parts of the brain.
Blood oxygen saturation (SaO2) during sleep and gray matter volume in specific cortical and subcortical brain regions. Lower mean SaO2 correlates to reduced volumes in the:
• Hippocampus–amygdala complex: two independent memory systems, each with unique characteristic functions.
• Thalamus, basal ganglia: relay sensory and motor signals, as well as regulation of consciousness and alertness and fine-tune the voluntary movements
• Frontoparietal cortex: that includes control the allocation of spatial attention to environmental stimuli.
Mean arterial oxygen saturation can be measured during a nights sleep, and depends on breathing. The percentage of time spent with oxygen saturation <90% is a marker considered important in the diagnoses of sleep apnea. The term apnea is a stoppage of air flow lasting 10 seconds or longer.
The study reported that for each 1% decrease in mean SaO2 there is an expected volume loss of −0.63% in specific brain structures that are particularly sensitive to oxygen supply.
You need to look after your sleep.
By training the airway to breathe quietly through the nose, you prevent the grey matter of the brain shrinking. Deep restorative sleep allows the brain clear its own toxins that build up through the day, with its cerebrospinal self cleansing system.
If you snore, or a family member does, it’s time to address the issue. Simply redirecting to nasal breathing during sleep can markedly change oxygen delivery to the brain.
Do you or a family member snore? Let’s share our experiences in fighting the brain’s decline.
