  • Snore prevention apparatus
    Patent number: 6263877
    Abstract: A snore prevention device is provided for preventing snoring by a user. The snore prevention device includes a generally oval plate positioned in the mouth of the user between the teeth and the lips. The oval plate includes an aperture centered therein to accommodate air flow into and out of the mouth. A tab member extends from a first side of the oval plate and through the lips to position the air passage in the flow of air into and out of the mouth when the lips are separated. The snore prevention device reduces the flow of air into the mouth and hence, reduces the vibration of the uvula, which, in turn, reduces the snoring sound.

  • Snore and teeth grinding prevention device
    Patent number: 5921240
    Abstract: A device is provided for preventing snoring and the grinding of teeth by a user during sleep. The device includes a generally oval plate positioned in the mouth of the user between the teeth and the lips. The oval plate includes an aperture centered therein to accommodate air flow into and out of the mouth. A tab member extends from a first side of the oval plate and through the lips to position the air passage in the flow of air into and out of the mouth when the lips are separated. The device reduces the flow of air into the mouth and hence, reduces the vibration of the uvula, which, in turn, reduces the snoring sound. The device further includes a tapered rib extending along a second side of the oval plate so as to prevent the upper teeth of a user from engaging the lower teeth of a user.
