Snoring: Snoring is caused by vibration of tissues in the throat. Nearly 70% of the time, the tissue that causes the noise, is the soft palate hitting the back of the throat. Snoring can come from the base of tongue vibrating against the back of throat. Nasal congestion can contribute to airway resistance and snoring problems. That is why there are products like breathe right nasal and oral appliances.
