Say "Goodnight" to snoring
|
|
Snoring is not uncommon -- over 80 million Americans snore -- but it no longer has to mean sleepless
nights for family members who don't snore. A simple device, available through our office, can
reduce or even eliminate snoring in many cases.
How does it work?
Snoring occurs when the muscles in the throat constrict causing air to be inhaled quickly and through
a smaller passage. This distorts breathing and results in strong blasts of air and noise.
The appliance is comfortable to wear, yet it repositions the tongue and lower jaw to open airways and reduce
the snoring noise.
|
It's made for you.
This device can be fit to your mouth based on impressions of your teeth. Because it's custom-made, the
fit allows freedom of movement.
Call our office for more information on how you can sleep more peacefully.
