Anti-Snoring Devices.
Not only does snoring cause sleep deprivation to you and those around you, but it can lead to daytime drowsiness, irritability and lack of focus. Effective sleep keeps your immune system strong, lowers stress and keeps you motivated with higher energy. A poor quality of sleep due to snoring can affect your relationships, as well as your own happiness.
Specially made dental appliances called mandibular advancement splints, which advance the lower jaw slightly and thereby pull the tongue forward, are the most common mode of treatment for snoring. Such appliances have been proven to be effective in reducing snoring and sleep apnoea in cases where the apnoea is mild to moderate.
-
During sleep, the lower jaw and tongue can fall back, reducing the size of the airway in the throat. The throat muscles also relax during sleep, reducing efficiency at maintaining an open airway. As the air passes through this narrowed airway, the soft tissues vibrate and causes the noise of snoring.
Increasing numbers of studies into snoring across the world are highlighting the prevalence of snoring in the population. These studies indicate that at least 30% of adults snore, so you’re not alone and here at Dental Art we can help.
