Certainly. SnoreStopper features a unique patented design that allows for jaw position adjustments in one-millimeter increments, up to a maximum of ten millimeters. It is advised to begin with the device set to one millimeter for the initial use. Should there be no decrease in snoring after 3 nights, it's recommended to increase the setting by one millimeter. Each adjustment should be maintained for at least two nights before making further changes. The majority of users experience effective results with the device adjusted to between three and five millimeters.
SnoreStopper can be adjusted in one millimeter increments to provide optimal comfort and effectiveness.
With one hand, press both "push" buttons on both sides of the lower jaw. When doing this, you will be able to adjust the setting of upper jaw.
Using your other hand, still pushing the buttons, adjust the setting of the upper jaw and lock it in the desired position.
Many users of SnoreStopper discover that adjusting the device to a setting between three and five millimeters effectively eliminates snoring. Nonetheless, it is advised to start using the SnoreStopper at the one-millimeter setting and incrementally increase the setting if there is no noticeable improvement in snoring after several nights. Each time you adjust your SnoreStopper, increase it by only one millimeter and ensure to use it at this new setting for a minimum of two nights before adjusting again.
SnoreStopper uses the boil-and-bite process to create a custom impression of your teeth. For detailed information on how to create an impression on your SnoreStopper, please see our fitting instructions.
Yes. If the first impression you took doesn't clearly display well-defined teeth marks, you can repeat the custom fitting steps one more time. The entire impression process can be done a total of two times.
Clean SnoreStopper daily to prevent the buildup of debris and offensive odors. Aseptic Guard is a good cleaning solution that works well for many SnoreStopper users. Toothbrush and toothpaste are also effective. Stay away from abrasive cleaners such as mouthwash, dishwashing soap, ammonia, bleach, and other household cleaning products. Give your SnoreStopper a chance to air-dry after wearing it or cleaning it.
SnoreStopper comes in one standard size, but it accommodates most jaw sizes.
SnoreStopper typically lasts around 6 to 11 months of use, but we can't guarantee a specific length of time as this varies from person-to-person. For example, people who have a habit of grinding their teeth or clenching their jaw while they sleep may wear out their SnoreStopper device quickly and need to replace it much sooner than 6 months.
Wearing SnoreStopper can become second nature for you, but as with any other oral appliance or prosthetic, it may take a little time to get used to it. Allow yourself up to five nights of consistent use to see if your mouth gets used to the feel of SnoreStopper. It's perfectly normal to experience some soreness in your jaw, teeth, and gums during this adjustment phase. But if you have severe pain or discomfort that doesn't fade after a few days of use, then stop using SnoreStopper immediately and contact your dentist or physician.
This totally depends on your individual anatomy and preference. Some people can comfortably close their lips over the device while wearing it, but others might not be able to. SnoreStopper is designed to be comfortable and effective either way.
Yes. In fact, we recommend that you tell your dentist that you are using SnoreStopper at your next visit.
The easiest way to tell if SnoreStopper works for you is to have someone listen for snoring sounds while you sleep. If you share a bedroom with someone, then they will definitely let you know!
But when in doubt, try using a smartphone app like Sleep Score or SnoreLab to check for snoring sounds while you sleep.
SnoreStopper can start working for you within a week, just as soon as you find the right setting. For many, it will work the first night they use it.
It's also important to know that dry mouth, a little initial soreness, or even excess drooling are all totally normal when you first start wearing SnoreStopper. You can reduce these effects by wearing SnoreStopper for a few days during waking hours for at least 45 minutes at a time to help your mouth get used to the sensation.
Do not use SnoreStopper when:
1. You have a serious respiratory condition, such as asthma or emphysema.
2. You suffer from central sleep apnea.
3. You have severe jaw pain, loose teeth or advanced periodontal disease.
4. You have full dentures that are removed at night, leaving you with few teeth. For SnurkStopper to fit properly, most of your teeth must still be present. SnoreStopper fits only if the dentures are worn together with the mouthpiece.
5. You wear fixed braces or a retainer at night.
Yes! Many of our customers who have an overbite successfully use SnoreStopper. We recommend that when you receive SnoreStopper, make sure the device is set to the neutral setting of 1 millimeter before you take your impression and begin wearing your device. If the snoring is not reduced after 3 to 5 nights, advance the setting by one millimeter. Each setting should be worn for a minimum of 3 to 5 nights before adjusting the device again.
If you have had one or more dental implants placed towards the back of your mouth within the past 12 months, then we don't recommend that you wear SnoreStopper. Additionally, SnoreStopper requires that both your upper and lower four front teeth be natural. If you have dental implants, talk with your dentist before purchasing and using SnoreStopper.
While most users do not experience side-effects, SnoreStopper may cause:
Many medical professionals agree that an anti-snoring oral appliance is effective if it is adjustable and, more importantly, if the user can easily adjust it on their own. An effective mouthpiece should let you advance your jaw as needed by at least 1 millimeter increments.
Customization is another key feature to look for. The more you can customize the fit of your appliance, the better it will work for you.
The proprietary design of SnoreStopper allows you to adjust the advancement settings as needed without any screws, springs, or other hardware components that could damage your teeth or put a strain on your TMJ.
In most cases, snoring happens when your body forces air through your throat when it is fully or partially blocked by the muscles and tissues of your tongue, neck, and throat. The air causes those tissues to vibrate, and the resulting sound is a snore. Snoring often results when your jaw relaxes while you sleep and causes the muscles in your throat to collapse and close off your airway.
No, there are no small parts on SnoreStopper that could present a potential choking hazard. Every element of the device is too large to become lodged in the throat.
SnoreStopper is a mandibular advancement device (MAD) that gently props your lower jaw forward. This helps maintain a clear airway while you sleep and prevents the irritating sound we call “snoring.”
SnoreStopper is a one-of-a-kind snoring mouthpiece because it offers many levels of customization including the ability to advance your jaw in one-millimeter increments. Each model lets you select the advancement setting that feels and works the best for you.

Yes, SnoreStopper is perfectly safe. The American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine acknowledges that an oral appliance is a safe and effective treatment for the prevention of snoring.
