There are many devices on the market that help people sleep soundly. Snoring mouthpieces are a very popular method of reducing snoring. They are designed to counteract the vibrations of the relaxed throat muscles (also known as snoring) by comfortably restraining the organs involved in snoring. Here is my review of one of these products:…
Recently we evaluated the SnoreRx device which is an over-the-counter oral appliance for the treatment of snoring. Snoring is the sound caused by a narrowed nasal and/or oral airway during sleep. Potential airway narrowing may occur in the nose and includes a deviated septum, enlarged soft tissue (turbinates), polyps, and/or sinus congestion. Narrowing in the…
I’ve been snoring for years and have tried a lot of anti-snoring devices, including nasal dilators. Nasal dilators are small inserts made of a rubber-like material that you insert into your nose before going to sleep. They open up your nasal pathways, which prevent you from snoring. Nasal dilators are different from snore guards that…

Is there anything better than waking up next to your loved one? Curling up together is considered to be an essential factor in preserving a healthy and loving relationship – those who sleep together, stay together! However, bonding aside, sharing a bed can often be a logistical nightmare that demands a synchronicity of sleeping habits…
The big thing I noticed with SnoreMD was the price. It’s definitely more expensive than most mouthpieces I’ve rated (though still a fraction of what you’d pay for one from a dentist), so the big question is it worth the cost? In my case in was very effective, though it’s not perfect. Advantages of SnoreMD…
