What Is An Oral Appliance?
An oral appliance is the commonly used term for a Mandibular Advancement Splint (MAS). It is worn during sleep to manage snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea. The appliance works by temporarily advancing the lower jaw and tongue forward. This reduces throat constrictions and opens the airway while sleeping to prevent snoring and sleep apnoea. Oral appliances are medically proven and considered to be one of the best treatments for snoring. It is also considered a frontline solution for patients diagnosed with sleep apnoea. Many people diagnosed with sleep apnoea are unable to tolerate a CPAP machine and are only able to use it sporadically. Oral appliances are a proven and more comfortable alternative.
