40% of the British adult population snore and not only does it disturb their sleep and that of their partner, but also it can have an adverse effect on health. Prior to providing an appliance, we carry out an assessment for sleep Apnoea, which is when breathing can, stop at night at intervals, and advise on the best course of treatment. If suitable we can make a mandibular repositioning appliance, which is a dental appliance similar to a gum shield worn in your mouth at night. The device maintains the airway open whilst sleeping by holding the lower jaw (the mandible) forwards.
