Silent Nite® Snore Prevention Device

It is estimated that more than 80 million people in North America snore while sleeping (1). Considering the snorer’s spouse and children, as many as 160 million people are negatively affected by snoring every night. However, there is now a prescription for a more restful night’s sleep: Silent Nite®. Dr. Qureshi can prescribe this affordable, custom-made device,which is flexible, thin and comfortable in the mouth, to aid in the dissolution of snoring. Not only does the Silent Nite snoring device aid in a good night’s sleep, it exhibits documented clinical success for the prevention of annoying and unhealthy snoring.


How does the SILENT NITE® prevent snoring? 

Snoring research has also shown that custom fabricated dental devices worn at night that move the lower jaw into a forward position, increase the three dimensional space in the airway tube which reduces air velocity and soft tissue vibration.  By increasing the volumetric capacity of the airway and preventing soft tissue vibrations, snoring is eliminated.  In clinical research studies, dentists prescribed SILENT NITE® devices and they exhibited initial snoring prevention success rates of between 70% to 100%.  The SILENT NITE® device positions the lower jaw into a forward position by means of special connectors that are attached to transparent flexible upper and lower forms.  The forms are custom laminated with heat and pressure to the dentist's model of the mouth.  The fit is excellent and comfortable.
