Generally, the device resembles and is worn by athletes in a similar manner to enhance the defense of the mouth in contact sports, such as boxing. The sleep aid device includes an upper die set 1 and a lower die set 2, and the formed upper die set 1 and lower die set 2 are matched with the user's upper and lower teeth respectively. The upper mold set 1 is embedded in the formed covering structure 3 to cooperate with the upper jaw of the user's oral cavity. Such as figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 3, the connecting bridge 4 extends from one side of the sleep aid to the other in a substantially horizontal position where the two modules are connected. From figure 2 and 4 It can be clearly seen in the figure that the breathing hole 6 is located at the front end of the sleep aid device between the modules 1 and 2.

Abstract

The present invention provides a sleeping aid having an upper moulding, a lower moulding and a bridge; the sleeping aid formed so that it can be placed in the mouth of a human user with a series of the user's upper teeth snugly in the upper moulding, a series of the user's lower teeth snugly in the lower moulding, the user's lower jaw held forward of its natural resting position by the mouldings, and the bridge extending across the user's tongue to restrict the tongue from rearward movement; the sleeping aid formed such that when it is worn in this way the forward position of the lower jaw and the position of the bridge substantially inhibits snoring and / or sleep apnoea.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a sleep aid device, in particular to a sleep aid device for relieving snoring and / or sleep apnea. Background technique [0002] People have been known to snore or suffer from sleep apnea while sleeping. Slightly forward tilting of a person's jaw from its natural position has been found to reduce the tendency to snore or sleep apnea symptoms. Means to this effect are described by Jacobsen in patent specification WO 94 / 23674. For some, however, Jacobsen's device does not provide a comprehensive solution. It is therefore an object of preferred forms of the present invention to provide by some means an alternative sleep aid which may prove effective for at least some individuals. Contents of the invention [0003] According to one aspect of the present invention, a sleep aid device is provided, including an upper die set, a lower die set, and a connecting bridge; [0004] The shaped sleep aid device is placed in the mouth of ...
