Custom-made anti snoring mouthguards

Over 40% of us snore, which can result in many of us having a disrupted night’s sleep, leaving us feeling tired during the day. Snoring can also affect our ability to concentrate, make us feel less energetic and cause headaches.

Snoring is caused by vibrations of the soft tissues in your nose, mouth and throat as you breathe when your muscles are at their most relaxed. It is a partial obstruction of the airways, whilst obstructive sleep apnoea is a complete obstruction of the airways. When air is blocked from reaching the lungs, over time this can lead to health problems such as increased blood pressure, heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

Wearing a custom-made anti snoring mouthguard while you sleep holds your lower jaw forwards, helping to keep your airway open to prevent snoring. Its compact design means it is comfortable to wear and allows you to get a good night’s sleep so that you and your partner can wake up feeling refreshed.
