GBDon't recommend, primitive construction, very odd shape First, this product did not work for me. I have tried a few different products that work amazingly well. I do NOT recommend this item; try another less expensive alternative. Second, when you see the item, it will be very odd looking. Unfortunately, this product is primitive; metal pieces stick out on the sides and are uncomfortable. A clear, easy-to-use tutorial video is available to ensure accurate molding occurs, however, NO amount of adjustment can fix the protruding metal things. These wide metal pieces on the top are needed for the plastic triangles on the bottom piece to slide up and down properly on the upper. Although the lower piece with its triangles is adjusted to keep the points from stabbing the cheek, the two parts can clack together during sleep. Your partner can be more irritated by the clacking than snoring. The small is quite wide in the cheeks, and I found it to really bother me the entire two weeks I attempted to wear this appliance. Unfortunately, the company only supports using the odd-shaped appliance in certain instances; using the very detailed self-help video provided is not an approved method. I hope this review is useful to future customers.

GBI’ve tried many devices all have failed… I’ve tried many devices all have failed my jaw. My mouth would open apart, and my jaw would fall back and I would snore Sleep MD device keeps my jaws intact with the wings, preventing my jaw to move backwards. It’s the best idea that I’ve tried it’s a real good working device I truly recommend it.

GBEffective treatment for my sleep apnea I was diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea, with O2 levels falling to 83% for 40 minutes over the course of a night. After using the SleepMD device, a second tests showed minimum O2 at 88% for only 0.3 minute during sleep, averaging 94%. The clinic pronounced that as acceptable, with no further treatment (CPAP) required. I should add that this device costs 95% less than what a lot of dentists want for a similar device. Unfortunately, the upper plate broke after two months. Dr. Hamburg stepped up and provided a repair kit as well as a Zoom session to see that I made the repair properly. I am thoroughly impressed with SleepMD and Dr. Hamburg.

GBReally helps me get a good night sleep. I've been using Dr Hamburg's device for many years. In my opinion, it's extremely helpful in getting a good night sleep. My wife also uses it and feels the same way. While they may be a little more involved to set up than similar devices, they are much more effective, comfortable, and have a secure fit. The upper and lower parts are separate which allows my jaw to move which makes it more comfortable for me. Remember you can make adjustments after the initial setup to get the most comfortable fit. I keep any leftover molding material as it can be used for future adjustments or repairs.

GBIt does the job. It does the job. I've seen improvements to the design over the years. The video assisted setup/molding process was helpful. I always use the maximun lower jaw forward setting as I snore heavily, but this does inevitable cause the wings to come lose or the side metal things to pop out. But a quick molding of extra material and some patch work n it usually is good for a while. I've tried a few diff mouth devices and this is the one for me..will always continue to buy.
