Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) are oral appliances designed to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by repositioning the lower jaw and tongue to keep the airway open during sleep. These devices are often used as a non-invasive alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for mild to moderate cases of sleep apnea.

The device works by gently moving the lower jaw forward, which prevents the airway from collapsing during sleep. The MAD is custom-made to fit the patient’s mouth, ensuring comfort and effectiveness.

Mandibular advancement devices help reduce snoring, improve sleep quality, and prevent the health risks associated with untreated sleep apnea, such as cardiovascular disease and daytime fatigue.

These devices are a convenient, comfortable solution for patients with sleep apnea, allowing them to breathe freely throughout the night and enjoy better sleep health.
