An individual usually wears sleep appliances when sleeping and attaches the device to the mouth like an orthodontic retainer or a sports mouthguard. The sleep appliance secures the jaw in a forward position to enable the upper airway to remain open. Researches have shown that sleep devices are an effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea and snoring.

If the patient and dental professional agree that this is the best treatment procedure, the specialist will prescribe a custom-made oral appliance and recommend the best option.
