A mandibular advancement device, more commonly known as a snoring mouth guard or dental appliance, is a device an individual may use who suffers from snoring or sleep apnea. By gently pulling the lower jaw forward, it lifts the soft palette, disallowing it from collapsing on itself. This is not only an effective and common device used for snorers but for those suffering with sleep apnea as well.
These devices are plastic guards that fit and depending on the type, mold to the mouth shape. Unlike more involved products such as the chin strap, throat spray, or CPAP, the mouthpiece is merely a small guard that goes in your mouth prior to going to sleep.
In terms of side effects, they are mild but still noteworthy: excessive salivation, tooth discomfort and mucosal dryness. If you’re considering getting a mandibular advancement device, you’ll want to either speak with your dentist and get or prescription order online from outside of the United States. The reason for this is because the FDA has concluded (along with dentists) that the Snoring mouth guards should be issued solely through a licensed professional. That being said, many have reported that athletic mouth guards which can be purchased over the counter work as an effective alternative to a snoring mouthguard.
How does it work?
The stop snoring mouthpiece is similar to an athletic mouth guard. It holds your lower jar forward during sleep which keeps the airways clear and the soft palette from collapsing on itself.
Benefits
One of the greatest benefits of the stop snoring mouthpiece is that it works instantly. As soon as you slide the device in place, it becomes effective and you’re free to sleep in peace without worrying about keeping your partner awake.
Another benefit is it’s non-invasive. Unlike snoring surgery and related treatments, the mouthpiece slides in and slides out with ease, requiring no additional headaches or dollars. The stop snoring mouthpiece is also more appealing compared to other devices such as a chin strap. You don’t have to worry about what a date will think when you discreetly put in your mouth guard.
