What Causes Snoring?
Snoring occurs when loose or fatty muscle tissues in the back of the
throat relax during sleep. As these tissues collapse into the
throat, air is forced through the shrunken air ways producing vibrations
in the back of the throat that cause the snoring sounds.
Medical Problems Associated With Snoring...
Besides the unpleasant noise associated with snoring, the
medical profession has noticed some disturbing correlations between
snoring and other medical problems. Snoring is now a medical
condition that is being taken very seriously. There are several
physical disorders associated with and resulting from snoring. They
may range from headaches to chronic day-time fatigue, to mouth and throat
problems, to heart and respiratory disorders.
Pro-form ASD (Anti-Snoring Device) Reduces Snoring!
The Pro-form ASD is a remarkably comfortable mouthguard-styled device
that has prevented or reduced snoring in over 70% of the patients who use
it!
How the Pro-form ASD works
The Pro-form ASD is custom-fitted by your dentist. From impressions
of your mouth, the dental professional makes casts of the upper and lower
jaws. Then a unique thermo laminate is vacuum-formed onto the upper
cast.
Next a repositioning ramp is added that gently
positions the lower jaw forward. This opens the lower jaw and moves
it forward, thus increasing the opening at the back of the throat for more
airway passage space. An increased opening allows more oxygen into
the lungs, which lessens the vibrating tissue at the back of the throat. A
