Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are worn over teeth and are often used to protect patients from teeth grinding. The effects of grinding or clenching your teeth can be sever. The good news is that we may be able to prescribe a custom-made Comfort H/S™ (Hard/Soft) Bite Splint, which offsets the pain and damage caused by bruxing or grinding your teeth. A nightguard is also a great preventative step in protecting your teeth.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
The TAP® (Thornton Adjustable Positioner) is based on the same principle as that of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The airway must be opened to allow air to pass through the throat. A constricted or collapsed airway causes snoring or sleep apnea. The TAP anti-snoring device holds the lower jaw in a forward position so that it does not fall open during the night and cause the airway to collapse. It maintains a clear airway to reduce snoring and improve breathing.

It is patient-adjustable, allowing for maximum comfort and effectiveness.The TAP® (Thornton Adjustable Positioner) is based on the same principle as that of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
