Snoring is caused by a restriction of air flow in the back of the throat, this can be a problem for anyone. It happens because while we sleep our tounge and jaw fall near the rear of our throat this restricts the flow of air when we breath, this causes the noise related to snoring.

Doctors in the USA have been researching this problem for years and have come up with a solution. The Zx appliance looks like a mouthgard, but it prevents snoring by stoping the jaw and tounge falling back and blocking the airways.

The most serious problem with snorers is the reduced blood flow to the brain, so to stop snoring means this problem is eliminated. Then there is the sleepless nights that a partner has when with someone who snores, the applience eliminates this problem and all of the others related to snoring.
