Chinstrap vs. snoring - also known as oral appliance for sleep apnea or Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) – a personalized device designed to alleviate snoring and improve breathing during sleep. It works by gently pulling the lower jaw and tongue forward, which helps to keep the airway open.

- People with primary snoring, without comorbidities – for mild to moderate cases.
- Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) – especially in mild to moderate stages and when CPAP is not well tolerated.
