Snoring - passing my findings on

I tried everything. Tape across my mouth, things for your nose, moulded mouth pieces etc. Nothing worked until my wife saw ‘Snore wizard’ mouth piece whilst telly shopping. It looks just like a boxers gum shield and it’s not cheap at £30/40 but does work. I looked into why I snore and this thing works because it is able to move the lower jaw forward (and keep it there) allowing air to move passed the soft tissue without the resonance which is snoring. If your still reading this far then you’ve got a real problem like me. If you buy one of the ebay lookalikes it won’t work as your mouth will open allowing  your jaw to move back. They are all too small to work. Snore wizard is large enough to keep your jaw is place. Downsides are – dry mouth, turns a funny colour with age (the snore wizard not you), doesn’t last forever and it takes a couple of nights to get used to it. I keep mine by the bed until I get receive an elbow and pop it in.

Amazon sell the correct type to buy – remember a lot look very similar but are all too small. (sorry not yet permitted to include links in my posts)

    If I suggested that to my partner, snoring would be the least of my worries !

    Are you overweight? I've found that my breathing is more noisy since putting on a significant amount of weight this year.

    I've just read and making a real effort to sort my snoring.   I suffer blocked nose but giving a mouth piece a go anyhow right now.   Mine's from S4S and cost £350 a few years back.  I never had confidence to use before.   I'll guess I'll see if it works in next few weeks.  I'm using a sleeping app to record myself.   Your success has given me hope
