The most common cause of snoring is air being passed through a partially constricted airway causing vibration of the palate during breathing. 

The SleepPro anti-snoring mouthpieces move the jaw forward, this opens up the airway and stretches the palate so it does not vibrate (or vibrates less), thereby aiding our customers to stop snoring.

SleepPro appliances work for most people, although they may sometimes need a little adjustment tweaking to get them right (See the troubleshooting section for more information). 

One way to find out it is to try. Some people have no problems at all, while others may do. 

This is one of the reasons we suggest trying a cheaper option, such as a SleepPro Easifit first.

Price: 
A standard SleepPro is considerably cheaper than the custom SleepPro. 

Fit: 
The standard SleepPro is a “boil-and-bite” mouthpiece, which means you put a thermo-plastic mould in hot water and then bite into it so that it takes the shape of your teeth; this is not customised specifically to your teeth. The custom SleepPro is hand-made in a laboratory using a dental impression kit. The device is made using a near perfect impression of your teeth so fits more snugly. 

Size: 
The custom SleepPro has thinner walls and is less bulky so you aren’t as aware of it when you wear it. 

Grip: 
The SleepPro standard grips mainly the front teeth, whereas a custom SleepPro grips all the teeth. This helps it to sit more securely and comfortably on your teeth while you are asleep.

No, but it is highly recommendedas it aids in keeping the mouthpiece in place and the mouth closed which stops snoring.

There are many factors that can affect the life expectancy of your SleepPro. Grinding your teeth while you sleep, how clean you keep it and how you store it will all play a part. We have customers who regularly purchase every six months and others who come back once every two years.
