How to Avoid Buying a Snoring Mouthpiece that Doesn't Work

Avoid buying a snoring mouthpiece that doesn't work. Learn why snoring mouthpieces customized for your bite, breathing habits and jaw function work best.

 

It’s interesting that all of the one-size-fits-all snoring mouthpieces on the market assume that everyone has the same bite.  Unfortunately most people do not have what I refer to as a text book normal overbite like you would see if you just completed orthodontic treatment.  A large portion of snorers have more of an overbite where the upper front teeth are several millimeters in front of the lower front teeth.  Often we see snorers with even a more severe overbite, where the upper front teeth are in front of the lower front teeth by as much as a quarter to three-eights of an inch.  This really contributes to the snoring problem. With such a receded lower jaw, the tongue is already in a position to block the airway and cause snoring and sleep apnea.  We also see a few people with an underbite who snore and have sleep apnea.  So with all these different types of bites, it makes sense that a mouthpiece should be customized for your particular bite to be successful in stopping your snoring or sleep apnea.

There are two other factors that are important to a high success rate in stopping your snoring or sleep apnea.  The snoring or apnea mouthpiece should accommodate your breathing habits as well as your jaw joint function.  Mouthpieces should be customized for either a mouth breather or a nasal breather so that you can breathe freely when sleeping, and at the same time lessen the chance of having a dry mouth if you are a nasal breather.
 
To prevent jaw joint problems or TMJ dysfunction, the mouthpiece should allow lateral movement when sleeping.  This is also important if you tend to grind your teeth in your sleep.  Allowing for lateral movement will ensure that you wake up in the morning with relaxed jaw muscles and jaw joints. The Ultimate Stop Snoring Solution is the only mouthpiece set on the market that is customized for your particular bite, your breathing habits and possible TMJ dysfunction or nighttime grinding habits.
