Snoring is the vibration of the soft tissues in the upper airway. When you go to sleep, your muscles relax since you are lying down instead of sitting upright. This change in body position causes gravity to narrow your airways. As air moves through the nose and down the throat when you inhale, it generates vibration of the soft tissues in your upper airway. That vibration is the sound that we associate with snoring.
Anti Snoring devices help to control snoring and to provide a sound sleep. They work by moving the lower jaw forward to widen the airway, making breathing easier and reducing snoring. It also helps to treat conditions like obstructive sleep apnea.
