Anti-Snoring

Anti-snoring devices

Do you or your partner snore?

Snoring is more than just a loud noise. It leads to broken sleep for the snorer and their partner. This can have a profound impact on your quality of life and can create relationship problems.

The causes of snoring

Snoring is caused by a partial closing of your airway during sleep due to a relaxation of the muscles in the neck. The soft tissue then vibrates to cause the sound of snoring. The same effect can also be the result of partially blocked airways, which may be caused by conditions such as enlarged tonsils and colds.

Life style changes are usually advised as a first step to treat snoring. These include:

Losing weight people with a neck circumference of more than 43cm (17 inches) usually snore a lot.
Not drinking alcohol particularly a few hours before you go to bed as alcohol relaxes your muscles when you sleep, which increases the narrowing of your airways.
Giving up smoking as tobacco smoke can cause your airways to become inflamed, which causes greater narrowing of the airways.
Exercise regularly this can help strengthen neck muscles which may help the airways narrowing.

The solution to snoring

We believe that Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs) are the best anti-snoring devices available today.

Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs)

If lifestyle changes haven’t helped and your snoring is mainly coming from your mouth, you may benefit from an anti-snoring device. Over the years we have tried a number of different types. We believe MADs are the best anti-snoring devices available today.

They are designed to push your jaw and tongue forward. This increases the space at the back of your throat and reduces the narrowing of your airway thus stopping tongue vibration.

Each device is custom made and fitted to you and can be adjusted to achieve the optimum alignment and tilt for you. We believe they are life changing. Speak to us today about how we can solve your snoring problem.
