Snoring is caused by a partial closure of the airways due to a relaxing of the muscles on the neck while sleeping. This is commonly found in individuals who are overweight or have greater upper body weight (typical in older males), as there is more soft tissue around the neck which limits the airways. The muscles in the neck can also weaken in age, increasing the risk of snoring.

How can we help:

At Killoran Dental, we offer oral appliances that can be an effective, non-surgical approach to treating this problem. The appliance works by keeping the airways open, by bringing the lower jaw forward.
