SLEEP APNEA/ANTI-SNORING

Oral appliances are a front-line treatment for snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. This small plastic device fits in the mouth during sleep like a sports mouth guard or orthodontic retainer. Oral appliances help prevent the collapse of the tongue and soft tissues in the back of the throat, keeping the airway open during sleep and promoting adequate air intake. Oral appliances may be used alone or in combination with other treatments for sleep-related breathing disorders, such as weight management, surgery or CPAP. Pro-Art offers a full range of anti-snoring, sleep apnea treatment appliances.

TWIN BLOCK

Main Features
  • Upper and lower splints, made with stainless steel wire and orthodontic acrylic.
  • Both splints have posterior pads that engage each other by contacting their inclines. When the mandible approaches the upper arch, it reaches a more protruded position.
  • As these appliances were originally orthodontic, different orthodontic features (springs, screw for transversal development of the upper arch, labial bows) can be added as well as different colors and patterns in the acrylic.
  • They look more like two retainers with posterior pads. They are very comfortable.
