Description

The present invention relates to a mouthpiece for improving apnea syndrome or addictive snoring.

FIG. 10 shows a mouthpiece for improving apnea syndrome or habitual snoring that has been used conventionally.

  Snoring during sleep is because the tongue 8 and its tongue base 10 are relaxed and the upper airway 28 is constricted, and during sleep, apnea is caused by the tongue 8 and its tongue base 10 sinking. This is because the upper airway is blocked. Therefore, the lower jaw is forcibly positioned in the forward direction using a mouthpiece to prevent the tongue 8 and its tongue base 10 and soft palate 9 from falling into the pharyngeal wall, thereby preventing the upper airway 28 from being blocked or narrowed. ing.

  The mouthpiece 1 described above has a substantially horseshoe shape, and has a recess 4 into which the crown of the tooth row 3 of the upper jaw 2 is inserted and a recess 7 into which the crown of the tooth row 6 of the lower jaw 5 is inserted.

When the patient falls asleep, insert the crown of the dentition 3 of the upper jaw 2 into the upper dent 4 of the mouthpiece 1,
The lower dent 7 is inserted into the crown of the dentition 6 of the upper jaw 5. As a result, the lower jaw 5 is forcibly positioned in the forward direction so that the tongue 8 and the tongue base 9 connected thereto are subjected to the action of gravity and do not fall in the direction of the upper airway 28 and block the upper airway 28.
