Snoring: Snoring is annoying and may harm your sleep and the sleep of whomever shares your bed or even people in other areas of your home. Custom fabricated oral appliances hold the lower jaw and tongue forward to create more space increasing the airway space. A specially trained dentist can help you determine if you are a good candidate for a custom made oral appliance.

Sure about SA?: Did you have a sleep test to measure whether you might have sleep apnea ore not? There are several types of sleep apnea, and without a test, it is hard to determine if you have it or not. Snoring is another issue and there are dental mouthpieces that work well for snoring too. Of course, a dr. Should examine you- there are several reasons a person snores- weight problems, sinus, nasal, allergie.
