Functional snore guard

Abstract

The invention relates to a functional snore guard, and relates to the technical field of medical appliances. The defects of the current snore guard that the size is larger, the foreign body sensation is strong, and the snore guard is in loose contact with an oral cavity to rub teeth and mucosa, which easily leads to tooth and mucosal injury, are overcome. The functional snore guard comprises a fixing component matched with an upper jaw of the oral cavity, wherein a hook fixedly connected with teeth is arranged on the periphery of the fixing component, and the fixing component is movably connected with a flip plate through a movable shaft; and the flip plate flips to stimulate the lingualis under the self-weight action when the root of tongue falls back to cause swallowing reflex to allow the tongue to return. The purpose of snoring stop is achieved by the training and stimulating reflection of the flip plate to the tongue. On the one hand, the appliance can be worn on all day, the lingualis is trained in a sober state, so that the lingualis is always in a normal position; and on the other hand, when the root of tongue falls back, the flip plate can stimulate the back of the tongue to cause the swallowing reflex to allow the tongue to return, so that the occurrence of fall-back of the tongue is reduced or eliminated so as to achieve the purpose of snoring stop.
