Anti-snoring devices: Sleep better and don't disturb your partner

Snoring is a widespread problem that can disrupt not only the sufferer's sleep but also that of their partner. It impairs sleep quality, leads to daytime fatigue, and can even strain relationships. Anti-snoring devices offer an effective, non-invasive solution to reduce snoring and promote restful sleep. In this article, you'll learn how anti-snoring devices work, their benefits, and why the Dr. Russ Anti-Snoring Device from Arando is an excellent choice.

1. What is snoring and why does it occur?

Snoring occurs when the airways are narrowed during sleep, causing vibrations in the soft tissues of the throat. These vibrations produce the typical snoring sounds. Common causes of snoring include:

  • Obesity : Excess tissue in the throat can narrow the airways.
  • Anatomical features : Enlarged tonsils, a small tongue or a long soft palate.
  • Lifestyle factors : alcohol, smoking or certain medications that relax the muscles.
  • Sleeping position : Lying on your back encourages the tongue to fall back and narrows the airways.
  • Age : As we age, the muscles in the throat lose tension.

Snoring is not only annoying, but can also be a sign of more serious problems such as obstructive sleep apnea, in which breathing stops briefly during sleep. In such cases, medical evaluation is advisable.

2. How do anti-snoring devices work?

Anti-snoring devices, also known as mandibular advancement devices (MADs), are small devices worn in the mouth at night. They work by pushing the lower jaw and tongue slightly forward, keeping the airway open. This reduces vibrations in the throat and minimizes snoring. There are different types of anti-snoring devices:

  • One-piece rails : Simple, inexpensive, but less flexible.
  • Two-piece splints : Allow lateral jaw movements for greater comfort.
  • Adjustable mouthpieces : Offer precise adjustment options, such as the Dr. Russ anti-snoring mouthpiece.

The effectiveness of anti-snoring devices depends on proper fitting and the quality of the material, which makes the Dr. Russ device a preferred choice.

3. Benefits of anti-snoring devices

Anti-snoring devices offer numerous benefits that can improve the quality of life of snorers and their partners:

  • Reduces or stops snoring : For a peaceful night without disturbing noises.
  • Improves sleep quality : Better sleep leads to more energy and concentration during the day.
  • Relieves sleep apnea symptoms : For mild to moderate sleep apnea, after consulting a doctor.
  • Comfortable and discreet : Modern braces are light, narrow and barely noticeable.
  • Individually adjustable : Adapts to the individual needs of the wearer.
  • Non-invasive : A safe alternative to surgical procedures.

These benefits make anti-snoring devices a popular choice for people who want to effectively combat their snoring.
