A BETTER NIGHT'S SLEEP FROM YOUR DENTIST!
More than 80 million people in the United States alone snore while sleeping. That means that as many as 60 million people are kept awake or sleep poorly because of snorers in their families. When you or your family don't get a good night's sleep, your productivity during the day, your mood, and your overall health are affected.
SNORING IS CAUSED . . . when during sleep the muscles and soft tissues in the throat and mouth relax. That makes breathing airways smaller. That decrease in space increases the velocity of air flow through the airway during breathing. As velocity increases in the narrowed airways, soft tissues like the soft palate and the uvula vibrate. That is what produces the snoring sound. Sleep studies have also shown that being overweight, consuming large amounts of alcohol and taking sleep sedatives also increase the severity of snoring.
NOW THERE IS A WAY TO PREVENT SNORING
The SILENT NITE tm snoring prevention device gently positions the lower
jaw into a forward position by means of special connectors that are
attached to transparent flexible upper and lower forms. These upper
and lower forms are custom laminated with heat and pressure to a model
of your mouth. They have an excellent fit and are very comfortable
since they are only two millimeters thick. With your lower jaw slightly
forward, the airway stays open prevents soft tissue vibrations which
cause snoring. Even with congested nasal passages, the SILENT NITE tm
device prevents snoring and does not inhibit oral breathing. It has
also been proven effective in cases of Obstructive Sleep Apnea."
In clinical research studies, these dentist prescribed oral devices have exhibited initial snoring prevention success rates of between 70 to 100%. Call and ask us about SILENT NITE tm. Make an appointment and give yourself and your loved ones a SILENT NITE tm. You deserve it.
