Question:
Has anybody every used the SUAD - an oral device - to help correct Sleep Apnea?
i have mild sleep apnea and i am soon to begin using a SUAD. it is an oral device that keeps the tongue and lower jaw in place to prevent it from blocking the airway. i am searching for any personal feedback.
Answers:
I have heard from patients that used it and said they prefer the CPAP. I guess the SUAD causes some strain on the jaw muscles and you wake up with your mouth hurting. I have also heard some complaints of very dry mouth with it as well.
