Snoring oftentimes results from the soft tissues in your throat settling during sleep, partially jamming airflow. This vibration causes the snoring sound. For many, the root issue is related to jaw position, tongue placement, or mild sleep apnea.

Yes. At Moody Terrace Dental Practice, we offer custom oral appliances that reposition the jaw and open your airway, often reducing or eliminating snoring altogether.

A mouthpiece for sleep apnea is a personalised device that helps keep the airway open and betters nighttime breathing. By gently moving the jaw or tongue ahead, it can relieve snoring and reduce mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. It’s a better alternative to CPAP for many.

Apart from waking up feeling tired, other signs you many need snoring treatment is when you or your partner notice periods of choking or gasping during sleep. Irritability even after the full standard sleep hours along with morning sleepiness are some other signs to get checked as well.

Most patients adjust quickly. The instruments are usually light in weight moulded in way so they fit snugly to shape of your mouth, so they won’t feel clunky or disruptive when inserted.
