Anti-snoring mouthpiece
Sleep better with the custom-fitted anti-snoring mouthpiece.
An anti-snoring mouthpiece can help.
Snoring is a common issue in the bedroom, often caused by narrowed airways, which can be distressing for both the individual and their partner. Snoring occurs due to vibrating and fluttering movements in the palate, uvula, and base of the tongue during breathing. It can result from anatomical features of the facial skeleton or fatty deposits in the throat area. Inflammations in the throat, such as colds, can also lead to snoring. The sleeping position also plays a role in the functioning of the airways.
With increasing age and weight gain, tissue tension decreases, increasing the risk of snoring. Overweight individuals may experience obstructive snoring, which can impair performance. If left untreated, snoring can lead to obstructive sleep apnea, where temporary pauses in breathing occur during sleep. This leads to less restful sleep and can predispose to serious cardiovascular diseases. A holistic examination and treatment by various specialists are important here.
If you suffer from snoring, feel free to contact us. We offer individually adjustable anti-snoring mouthpieces that can also help with mild sleep apnea.
Open airways through splint therapy
The anti-snoring mouthpiece gently pushes the lower jaw forward, thereby expanding the jaw space. This creates more room for the tongue, preventing it from falling back into the throat, opening up the throat space, tightening surrounding soft tissue, and opening the constricted airway. This difference becomes noticeable immediately upon the first use, as the upper airways remain clear, apnea episodes decrease, and sleep becomes more restful.
To manufacture the protrusion splints, we first determine if the dental structure is suitable. Using state-of-the-art technologies, we obtain an exact image of your teeth. Based on this, the therapeutically effective advancement positions of the lower jaw are determined and meticulously simulated in the laboratory.
Subsequently, we commission the splints. Feel free to reach out to us with any questions!
