SmartGuard Anti-Snore Device

Yes, mouthguards can help reduce snoring. Mouthguards like the Somnofit-S are mandibular advancement devices (MADs), meaning they physically push the tongue and lower jaw forward to widen your airway. This decreases the vibrations that can cause snoring when the airway is narrower.

Yes, anti-snoring mouthguards are safe and considered medical devices. That said, you should talk to your doctor before using an anti-snoring mouthguard for the first time. People with loose teeth, dental implants, gum disease, and other oral health issues may need to consider a different treatment for snoring.

Yes, in certain cases, a mouthguard can cause or increase snoring. This typically occurs when the device is not properly fitted for the user's mouth, or the mouthguard is not specifically designed for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). People who snore should use a custom-fitted anti-snoring mouthguard intended to treat snoring and other symptoms of OSA.

The SmartGuard Anti-Snore Device is not FDA cleared for the treatment of bruxism. If you experience teeth grinding or clenching, you may want to try the SmartGuard Dental Guard, which is specifically designed for that purpose.

Yes, you can attempt the molding process up to three times to get the right fit. If you need to replace any (or all) of the parts because you didn’t get a good fit, the manufacturer will provide a free replacement.

To remove the advancement bars, rotate the bar to a 90-degree angle from the bracket on the tray, then gently pull it outward. For easiest removal, start with the lower tray if the device is fully assembled.

With proper care, the SmartGuard Anti-Snore Device is designed to last approximately 12 to 18 months, similar to most over-the-counter oral devices.
