Do anti snoring devices work for sleep apnea?
Some people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) benefit from using an anti-snoring mouthguard. CPAP therapy is widely considered the most effective treatment option for OSA, but a mouthguard can improve airflow and reduce the snoring associated with this sleep disorder.
Which is better Zyppah or ZQuiet?
ZQuiet More Comfortable but Less Effective for Large Jaws This wasn’t an issue for my sleep partner. It’ll likely be more comfortable despite jaw size, but, if your jaw is large enough to shut your mouth comfortably using the Zyppah mouthpiece, this is likely going to be a better choice in terms of effectiveness.
Is ZQuiet safe to use?
ZQuiet is safe, long-lasting and FDA-approved. It’s made entirely of BPA-free thermoplastic elastomers. Unlike other devices that are bulky and uncomfortable, ZQuiet is thin, flexible and lightweight. The boil-and-bite mouthpieces currently available require molding and adjustments before you can use them.
Can ZQuiet hurt your teeth?
The downsides: It was a little hard to get used to the first couple of nights. It does make my teeth a little sore first thing after I remove it, because of the pressure on them all night, but that goes away pretty quickly.
Is ZQuiet good for sleep apnea?
ZQuiet works by advancing the lower jaw (mandible) forward by a few millimeters to reduce blockage of the airway, enabling clear and quiet breathing. MADs like ZQuiet are also effective treatment methods for mild obstructive sleep apnea.
