Oral appliance options
Here are some examples:
How do oral appliances work?
Snoring occurs when the soft tissues in the airway relaxes and blocks breathing. When you try to breath, it vibrates the tissue and creates the snoring sound.
Sleep apnea occurs when the airway is completely blocked, air can not get into the body, and you wake up gasping for air.
An oral appliance prescribed by Dr. Sever lifts your lower jaw up, opening the airway as you sleep, so your body can breath. This eliminates snoring and allows you to stay asleep through the night.
