I’ve been using it nightly for a small over a month now, and it works fantastic. It does take about a week to get used to. Making sure you’re putting it on correctly is also a key factor. It’s pretty simple to place it on incorrect and it feels really too tight and incorrect when you do. I’ve found that in the morning my mouth and throat are no longer dry, and I don’t wake myself up with my own snoring anymore. I’m buying one for my brother for our upcoming trip home for Christmas. We’re bunking together and his snoring could set off seismic alarms. I hope he’ll consider using it.

If worn properly and with it super tight so the chin has no chance to go, it does work. But I wore it for 7 days and each morning my entire jaw & face ached as if I had been kicked in the face by a mule! So I tried wearing it slightly looser. Problem? It doesn’t work if it’s not super, super tight. So, for me…not so excellent.

This item was the most stay-in-place design & least expensive of all the ones we looked at. It would have been comfortable, if I could’ve gotten a looser fit. What you need is something to very gently keep your mouth closed, not clamp it shut for gluing!
The first size (medium) was WAY too small, so I questioned for an exchange for a larger size. The vendor was kind enough to just send two more in the large size, so there was no postage charge. But, these were also too small, even for my head (6 & 7/8ths hat size). Since I basically got this for my husband, there is no way even an Xtra-large would have been comfortable for him.
For me; I get migraines and sometimes wake up with headaches, and the pressure even from the large would have brought one on, so I gave up. Money down the drain. If you have a shrunken head, or have a small child that snores, this is the anti-snore device for him/her.
Seriously though, I have had dental help training, and mouth breathing in CHILDREN will cause severe deformation of the dental arch, which results in misaligned teeth and other problems.
PLEASE NOTE: Mouth breathing sometimes happens in children because swelled nasal passages are not allowing air to go through. Closing the only avenue for air might lead to the child removing the device in his sleep, or possibly suffocation if it is a very small child who cannot remove it. Better to take the child to a doctor to find the cause of the snoring.

I bought this product in hopes it would help with my snoring. It did not, it does not have the strength to even hold my mouth closed. I am very dissappointed!

Silent sweaty and hard to stay in place. I’am still looking for something besides a CPAP machine.
