One Third Of The Population Snores!
It is estimated that more than 80 million people in North America snore while sleeping. While snorers often do not seem
to suffer from snoring themselves (excluding Sleep Apnea Disorder), their spouses and children are often repeatedly
disturbed.
As many as 160 million people may be affected by snoring.
Unfortunately, left untreated snoring can produce tensions and even animosity among family members. Today however,
thanks to extensive research, your dentist can prescribe an affordable, custom made,
SILENT NITE snoring prevention device.
What Causes Snoring?
During sleep, the muscles and soft tissues in the throat and mouth relax making the breathing airway smaller. This
decrease in the airway space increases the velocity of air flowing through the airway during breathing. As the
air velocity is increased in the constricted space, soft tissues like the soft palate and the uvula vibrate. These
vibrations of the soft tissues in the mouth and throat result in snoring. It should also be noted that sleep studies have shown that excess body weight, heavy alcohol consumption and
other sedatives have been shown to increase the severity of snoring.
Relaxed and collapsed airway produces soft tissue vibrations during breathing which result in snoring.
How Does The SILENT NITE Prevent Snoring?
Snoring research has also shown that custom fabricated dental devices worn at night that move the lower jaw into a
forward position, increase the space in the airway tube which reduces air velocity and soft tissue
vibrations. In clinical research studies, these dentist prescribed oral devices have exhibited snoring prevention
success rates of between 70 to 100%.
With a SILENT NITE device the airway remains open allowing easier breathing and preventing snoring.
The SILENT NITE device positions the lower jaw into a forward position by means of special connectors that
are attached to transparent flexible upper & lower forms. The forms are custom laminated with heat and pressure to the
dentist's model of the mouth. The fit is excellent and comfortable. SILENT NITE devices do not interfere with breathing through the mouth.
SILENT NITE devices help promote deeper, more restful
sleep by preventing snoring.
