The Clear Sleep® reduces nighttime snoring and mild-to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea in adults by moving the mandible forward in adjustable increments and opening the airway for easier, unrestricted breathing.  The appliance consists of the following features:

• Customized upper and lower trays to meet the needs of each individual patient** 
• Patented strong and durable stabilizing posts for attachment of Connector Rods
• A series of strong, easy-to-change Connector Rods that provide for mandibular advancement in 1mm increments
• The strong, yet flexible, Connector Rods allow for greater lateral movement for overall comfort
• Up to 7mm advancement (based on protrusive bite provided with the working models)

**The Customized Trays can be fabricated using various materials based on individual patient needs as follows:

The standard design is comprised of two lightweight, low volume, (PMT) pressure molded trays using dual laminate material that is comfortable, retentive, and BPA-free.  This design requires fairly well aligned teeth with few edentulous spaces.

Available Options:

1.  All Acrylic Trays: In the event of numerous mal-aligned teeth, several edentulous areas, or lack of sufficient natural undercuts, the recommended design is fabricated using MMPA Splint Acrylic and incorporates several ball clasps for retention.  This allows for fine-tuning the retention based on the patients needs.

2.  If patient is a heavy Bruxer or Clencher:  An Anterior Discluding element, and/or Bilateral Posterior Acrylic Pads, can be added to both the PMT and the All Acrylic designs to help control Bruxism or to increase vertical if needed for patients with TMD.  These additions can be easily modified as needed during treatment.
