Abstract: A mandibular advancement device is disclosed. An upper component and a lower component are used as splints on the maxilla and mandible. A wire may be mounted to the lower components at the molar buccal sides. The wire passes through a channel on the anterior of the upper component, in a slidable fashion. The channel may be circular or have a cross-sectional shape including a flat side. A forward shield cushions or protects the interior of the oral cavity as the wire may move back and forth. The device may be made entirely of plastic or biocompatible materials.
