My Snoring Solution is basically a supporter of the jaw that is worn during sleep. By supporting your lower jaw when you sleep it is supposed to prevent you from snoring. This product was created to help as a solution to snoring and sleep apnea but should only be used with either CPAP or a snoring mouthpiece. Here’s the reason why…

When you snore or have sleep apnea, the main cause is the tongue relaxing and falling back against the back wall of the airway and/or soft palate. When this happens the tongue can either partially or totally block off the flow of air. If it is a partial blockage the soft palate and/or uvula will start to vibrate, causing snoring. If it is a total blockage and the flow of air stops for ten seconds or more, then this is considered sleep apnea.

A jaw supporter is worn so that it not only pulls the lower jaw closed but also pushes the lower jaw back toward your throat. The following illustration shows how a snoring chin strap pushes your lower jaw back.

Note how the jaw supporter or snoring chin strap is angled (this is due to how it must be worn). The strap must be placed around the top and back of the head so that when it fits around the chin it will remain in the right position throughout the night.

When the lower jaw is pushed up and back it also pushes the tongue back towards the back of the palate and back wall of the airway.

So this is why a jaw supporter works best when used with either of two snore solutions: a snoring mouthpiece or CPAP. If it is used by itself the airflow can be cut off. But when used with an oral device that holds the lower jaw forward or CPAP that forces air into the airway, then the chin strap will keep the mouth closed without compromising the airflow.

So if you suffer from snoring or mild to moderate sleep apnea and need help with keeping the lower jaw closed while you sleep, My Snoring Solution is an effective aid when used in combination with a snoring mouthpiece or CPAP. but before you rush to buy a snoring chin strap check out the best snoring solution to stop both snoring and sleep apnea.
