Simple things first: You can sleep on your side, avoid alcohol, and start a weight loss regimen if needed. But loud snoring can be a sign of serious sleep apnea. The best advice I have for you is be seen by an ENT that can evaluate your airway screen you for obstructive sleep apnea. There are a number of surgical and non surgical treatments that i as an ENT can offer to most of my patients.

Dental appliance: Snoring is basically a sound that results from the trembling of respiratory structures due to obstructed air movement during inhalation and exhalation. Your dentist is able to make dental appliances that can maneuver the lower jaw and align the the jaw as needed to prevent snoring at nights.

Get a DIAGNOSIS: Talk to your physician about a sleep study to rule out the more insidious and dangerous obstructive sleep apnea. If you are found to suffer primary snoring only, a sleep dentist can evaluate your airway and make a dental appliance as an easy and effective therapy. There are several surgeries that can help: uppp, pillar procedure. But few are successful in the treatment of apnea--get a sleep study.
