Oral Appliances

Oral breathing devices are a common remedy for snoring and sleep apnea. Worn while sleeping, these custom dental devices change the position of the jaw and suppress the tongue, which enlarges the airway.

Benefits Of Snoring Mouthpieces

By reducing the chance of blockage in the throat, these devices can be very effective in treating problem snoring and mild sleep apnea, and, because they don’t require any surgery or medical procedures, these devices are also relatively inexpensive and is considered a simple solution for snoring & sleep apnea.

Snoring Center vs DentistLimitations Of Snoring Mouthpieces

Many dentists and sleep centers recommend oral appliances for patients who can’t tolerate CPAP. However, when these devices are used by themselves, the degree of mandibular advancement (how far forward the jaw is placed) needs to be significant, and many patients complain of jaw joint discomfort or changes to their teeth and bite. We have found greater success using these devices in conjunction with other treatments.

Our Recommendations

We only use oral appliances in conjunction with other procedures, as part of a more comprehensive treatment approach. By combining multiple treatment methods, we have found that oral appliances are better tolerated, and therefore more likely to actually be used.

  • After A Week, I Could Already Feel Big Improvements

    “I’ve always had large tonsils, but recently they became a big problem for me. I had Laser Tonsillectomy to reduce the size of my tonsils, and the results are great. The procedure was not a big deal and over before I knew it. I went to a Mexican restaurant directly after my procedure and ate chips and tacos. And, after a week, I could already feel big improvements.”

  • I Was Way Past The Normal Age For A Tonsillectomy, And I Was Skeptical About The Laser Procedure

    “The Snoring Center has improved my quality of life. After numerous episodes of tonsillitis, I was searching for anything to help. I was way past the normal age for a tonsillectomy, and I was skeptical about the Laser Tonsillectomy procedure. However, Dr. Schwimmer and the entire staff at The Snoring Center were very nice and professional and made the entire process fast and relatively pain free. I experienced very little discomfort during the procedure and very minor pain afterwards. Within a few hours, I was eating normal food. The best part is that since the Laser Tonsillectomy procedure I have not had a single episode of tonsillitis or even a sore throat. Thank you Snoring Center!”

  • I Can Breathe Through My Nose For The First Time In 16 Years

    “My nasal allergies are so bad that it is debilitating. I love outdoor activities, but often I can’t partake or I pay the price. I heard about turbinate reduction at The Snoring Center and that it can help with nasal allergy symptoms. For me it has done much more than “help”, I can breathe through my nose for the first time in 16 years. This really is life changing. Thank you!”

  • The Entire Procedure Took Only About 10 Minutes. But, It Changed My Life

    “I have suffered all of my life from nasal allergies. I meet with clients all day and allergy season is awful. It is embarrassing to continually blow my nose and sniffle during meetings. Not to mention the expense of regular doctor’s visits and daily medication. I was happy to have Turbinate Reduction at The Snoring Center. The entire procedure took only about 10 minutes, but it changed my life. Thank you Snoring Center.”
