Snoring Devices & Sleep Apnea Devices
While snoring may cause a disturbance to your partner, it also poses serious health issues for you. If you suffer from mild to moderate sleep apnea, your dentist may recommend using an oral device that can help alleviate the problem and ensure a good night’s sleep.
How Do Oral Devices Work?
Snoring occurs when the muscles in the back of your throat relax, causing your airway to narrow. Oral appliances work by holding the lower jaw forward and opening up the airway so more air can enter when you breathe.
What Types of Appliances Are Available?
While you can purchase an over-the-counter oral appliance, custom-made appliances will generally work better and feel more comfortable in the mouth. These appliances fit over your upper and lower teeth and can be adjusted to hold your jaw forward.
