STOP SNORING.
START LIVING.
You want to stop snoring but dislike wearing a mouth guard, can’t bear being hooked to a CPAP machine and hate the thought of going under the surgeon’s knife?
NightLase is a breakthrough anti snoring laser treatment performed in the dental chair. It’s non-invasive, virtually pain-less and easy.
How It Stops Snoring
Introducing NightLase Technology
When you sleep, the muscles at the back of your throat relax, partially blocking your air passageway. When air travels around the slack obstruction it causes a vibration and produces the sound that we call snoring.
The NightLase procedure involves shining a laser light on the soft palate, uvula, base of the tongue and back of the throat. This causes the collagen in the tissues to shrink and new firmer collagen is produced. The result is a tightening of the muscles in the mouth and throat, which opens up the airway..
Nightlase has been in use in Europe, South America and Canada since 2010 and has more recently been introduced to the United States and now Australia.
Light energy by an advanced laser warms the tissue and promotes the production of new, firmer collagen – a process known as neocollagenesis.
The LightWalker laser used for the NightLase treatment is produced by leading manufacturer Fotona, who has 50 years’ experience in laser technology.
An Easy Snoring Solution That Works
Nightlase is a non-invasive way to successfully treat snoring and help reduce the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea. It is safe and effective and has been clinically proven to work – research shows it reduces snoring for about 80 percent of treated patients.
The procedure requires no anaesthetic, is virtually pain-less, does not require scary needles and has no side-effects. And you don’t take any clunky equipment home with you!
No Side Effects
You return to your normal routine straight after treatment. No anaesthesia required. Postoperative, a dry throat for a couple of days is the worst you’ll feel.
Snoring surgery – three weeks off work, strong pain killers and anaesthesia.
CPAP machine and mouth guards – ongoing nasal congestion, dry mouth, skin irritation and discomfort.
No Pain
No cutting, no bleeding, nothing scary. You’ll feel no pain during or after. Not to be confused with other types of laser procedures that involve cutting the soft palate.
Snoring surgery – extreme pain for up to two weeks post-operative.
CPAP machine and mouth guards – discomfort and sometimes pain if the appliance is incorrectly fitted or wrongly used.
Quick Yet Proven Results
Three 20 minute treatments over a six week period. High success rate – 80% of patients. You may even feel benefits as early as from the first treatment.
Snoring surgery – around 50% of patients relapse after just one year.
CPAP machine and mouth guards – high drop-out rate and non-compliance.
Value For Money
Rebates can be claimed on your private health fund. This exciting treatment delivers remarkable results, extreme convenience, improved sleep and a happier bed partner.
Snoring surgery – double the price of NightLase. In-patient treatment may be subject to ‘elective surgery’ extended wait time.
CPAP machine and mouth guards – can be more expensive than NightLase, with the addition of annoyance and discomfort.
Non-Intrusive
No needles, incisions or anaesthetic. You don’t need to wear any uncomfortable or bulky appliances.
Snoring surgery – requires anaesthesia, a potential hospital stay and a long and painful recovery.
CPAP machine and mouth guards – involves wearing a mask or mouth guard style device all night, every night.

About Us
As a long term laser dentist, Dr Jason Pang knows what it takes to deliver a successful laser treatment. Led by Dr Pang, the team at Cosmic Sleep Clinic, a division of Cosmic Smile Laser Dental are experienced at what they do and welcoming in their approach.
Jason’s commitment to continual learning has put him at the forefront of the dental profession. He is the first dentist in NSW to be trained in the anti-snoring NightLase laser treatment and is using his considerable expertise to train other dentists in the procedure. Always at the forefront of laser treatment, you can be sure that the latest and best techniques will be used.
His impressive education includes a Bachelor of Dental Surgery from the University of Sydney, a Bachelor of Science (Honours) and University Medal from the University of Technology, Sydney.
He was inspired to learn more about NightLase when he discovered the amazing results people were getting from it.
“As a dentist we treat snoring and sleep apnoea with oral appliances that reposition the jaw but they are uncomfortable, bulky and rely on good compliance by the patient to get a good result,” he says.
“I saw NightLase as a chance to provide long term results. It is the only anti snoring solution to treat the cause of snoring with virtually no discomfort, pain or inconvenience.”
As the first dental clinic in NSW to use the procedure, they have had more successful outcomes than any other. As sleep dentistry is a major part of their practice, they are qualified to consult and assess which treatment is most appropriate – whether it be with the laser, an appliance, surgery or CPAP. And that is the Cosmic Sleep Clinic difference.
