Question 4

what to do to help stop loud snoring?

Accepted Answer

Sleep Study by MD: The sound we call snoring occurs due to air passing through a narrowing of the airway, causing the tissue to "flutter" and make noise. Narrowing can occur as a result of several things....Large tonsils, excess neck fat, loss of muscle tone, and most commonly, a tongue that falls back blocking the airway during deep sleep.  People who snore loudly may also have sleep apnea. Have your md check this.

Question 5

can you tell me how to cure loud snoring?

Accepted Answer

Depends on cause: Conservative treatment like weight loss can sometimes remedy the problem.  However, snoring can be a sign of more significant sleep disturbances - like obstructive sleep apnea.  I perform the pillar procedure, which helps many of my patients with snoring only problems.  Custom oral appliances can also help.  Have full work-up first to r/o osa.

Question 6

what can i do for a  loud snoring problem?

Accepted Answer

Oral appliance: The noise from snoring can be likened to the noises created by the constriction of the flattened tube on a whoopie cushion.  Air passes through, but rattles the flexible walls of the tubing.  This occurs in your sleep because as you relax, your lower jaw settles back and closes down your breathing tube somewhat..  An appliance that holds your lower jaw slightly forward will eliminate the snoring!
