[quote=Anonymous]I might try to get him to use an anti-snoring mouth guard.  Some are custom made by dentists.  Some are available online and can be fitted at home.  The ones sold online are cheaper but bulkier.

I don't know why, but anti-snoring mouth guards don't seem to be available at most pharmacies.  (I'd be curious to know why most pharmacies don't sell them.)

The mouth guards work by keeping your jaw forward and preventing it from sliding back toward your throat when you sleep, making your air passage a little wider than it would be if your jaw went all the way back when you relax your jaw muscles.  Each brand of mouth guard has its own unique design, but they all seem to involve two plastic trays, one for top teeth and one for bottom teeth, with the two trays connected in a way that prevents the bottom teeth from moving backwards.  They look a little like the mouth guards worn by football and basketball players.

For some people, anti-snoring mouth guards not only reduce snoring but also reduce jaw pain and headaches from teeth grinding, while improving sleep (for both the snorers and other people who might have to listen to the snoring).

I'm surprised these products aren't more popular.  Brands include Snorex, Vitalsleep, zquiet, puresleep, and Silent Nite.  [/quote]
