What is a Snoring Appliance?

A snoring appliance is a small device that is worn in the mouth during sleep. It works by holding the lower jaw in a forward position, which opens up the airway and prevents snoring. There are several different types of snoring appliances available on the market today, so it’s important to consult with your doctor or dentist to find one that’s right for you.

How Does a Snoring Appliance Work?

As we mentioned above, a snoring appliance works by holding the lower jaw in a forward position. This forward positioning opens up the airway and prevents soft tissue in the throat from vibrating and causing snoring. In some cases, a snoring appliance can also work to prevent sleep apnea. If you suffer from sleep apnea, we recommend consulting with your doctor or dentist to find an appliance that’s specifically designed for this condition.

What Are the Benefits of Wearing a Snoring Appliance?

There are many benefits of wearing a snoring appliance, including:

  • Improved sleep quality;
  • Decreased daytime fatigue;
  • Improved concentration and productivity;
  • Reduced irritability; 
  • Increased energy levels; and 
  • Improved overall health. 

If you or your bed partner are struggling with snoring, don’t wait any longer to seek treatment. At the Washington Center for Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, we can help you get the restful night’s sleep you deserve with our custom-fit snoring appliances.
