M2 Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece

After spending a long time single, and sleeping alone, long story short I had someone sleep over and tell me that I was snoring quite violently all night-- which I had no idea, as it was never a problem for me in years past. The joys of getting older. I talked to my doctor who scheduled me for a sleep study and said that I would likely need a CPAP machine etc etc. I guess my phone was spying on me and sent me ads for this anti-snoring mouthpiece so for the price I thought I would give it a try... I've been using an app to monitor and record my snoring and from the very first night, zero snores. I had my new sleeping partner over again to verify. No snores. I'm already waking up feeling more refreshed and can't wait to see how it feels after a couple of weeks of decent night sleep while breathing. I've also canceled the sleep study. It seems like it can't be this easy but so far it seems to be just that. Very grateful I gave this product a try.

Since I’m using, I don’t wake up with horrible headaches. It is a bit big for my little mouth, wish they had a male / female version. My teeth are a little sore when I wake up but i guess it’s because it’s holding them instead of grinding them. The CPAP didn’t work for me so hopefully now that I’m in a quiet Environment, this will calm down my sleep apnea and will continue to work.

My wife has noticed me snoring more as we go into allergy season. I wanted a cheap way to try to help, so I bought this. There are pros and cons, and I haven't made up my mind about the product yet.

Pros: 1) It's easy to set up. 2) She has noticed less snoring for the week I've used it.

Cons: 1) It's awkward and painful when you start using it. It's made it difficult to go to sleep. Almost every morning, I wake up with the mouthpiece on my pillow or bed. My guess is that I'm pulling or spitting it out in my sleep. 2) It has an adjustment system to hold your jaw in a comfortable, correct place. It comes set at one. However, it doesn't hold at one and I wake up with it set somewhere from two to four. 3) I'm still snoring a little. My wife says the sounds have changed and it's more like wheezing and gargling. It's less, but there's still noise.

Evaluation: I wanted something cheap to "stop" my snoring. I ended up with something cheap that has "lessened" my snoring, albeit with some pain and awkwardness. I think three stars is a fair grade at this point.

I have a similar mouthpiece that was getting old and I wanted to replace it. But I could not get the sleep doctor mouth guard to fir properly. I tried twice (as many times as suggested) but it still would not give me the proper bite. Then I realized it's because it's too big for my mouth. The whole frame was extending beyond my teeth and it hurt my jaw. I must have had a smaller one, which I will have to look for. Bummer.

It's a bit bulky but I was able to sleep with them. I would wake up during the night because my top front teeth where bothering me as if the mouth guard was pushing my teeth inwards. On another note, my husband did say that he didn't hear me snore.
