I have been using this for a month and a half. I had a CPAP machine for snoring (sleep study showed no stops in my breathing at all). My CPAP mask was ripping all of my hair out. I needed another option, and my dentist who wears this recommended it when I went in to talk with him about having an oral device made by him. So, I tried it.
It did take getting used to. I had a sore jaw and teeth in the mornings for about three weeks. The soreness went away within a few hours though. I did have excessive saliva too at first. This has gotten better as well. I sleep on my back, no problem with this now.
The only problem I am having is that the tongue band has gotten hard and is rubbing in my tongue and causing soreness. I called them and they recommended I remold with my tongue, relaxed, and do not bite down quite so hard. I did have a lot of the green stuff pushed out from biting too hard. I guess strength varies in people and can affect things when molding. They said to try this, and if that doesn’t work, they will send me another and take care of me. So, so far my customer service experience was fine.
As for the device, I am sleeping better than I have in years. No snoring, and I was a closed mouth snorer who used to wake myself snoring. I am sleeping so heavy I don’t even hear the things I used to hear easily. In fact, I am sleeping so much better that my body didn’t know what to do at first. It was craving more sleep, I believe to catch up from lost sleep. I hope this helps someone in deciding on this. It was an adjustment, but I am so happy I stuck with it.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
