Some snorers suffer from interrupted breathing during sleep- a medical condition known as Sleep Apnoea. A more serious condition is Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) which is caused by the airway closing completely during sleep, thereby preventing snorers from breathing.
A life changing treatment to stop snoring
Not only is the SLEEPWELL ™ device the only MAS device to be tested in a randomised controlled cross over trial against CPAP and a placebo, it is also the most technologically advanced and patient friendly MAS on the market. The full clinical trial information is contained in the clinical trial area of this website, but the headline success rate of SLEEPWELL ™ was 80.3% in fully apnoeic patients. The potential exists for the device to be even more successful in non-apnoeic snorers.
The SLEEPWELL ™ combines a high clinical success rate with key features that make it more comfortable and flexible for the patient.
Unlike some MAS devices SLEEPWELL ™ is fully patient adjustable negating the need for further clinical visits for simple adjustment. Should the patient need to modify the degree of mandibular advancement they can simply adjust with the key provided.
SLEEPWELL ™ is also uniquely designed with internal splint fixing, allowing the lips to be closed around the device preventing the dry lips and excess salivation associated with some splints. High levels of patient comfort meant that during clinical trials over 98% of patients found the device acceptable.
The SLEEPWELL ™ is a laboratory-manufactured device moulded specifically to patient impressions. As a soft, slim-line two-piece device it allows full lateral movement whilst retaining high levels of patient comfort and custom made accuracy. By allowing a degree of movement during the night the device remains in the mouth unlike some devices that may dislocate. In addition the lateral movement provides a solution to some patients who experience TMJ stress with a fixed block device.
Key Benefits
- FULL LATERAL MOVEMENT
- FULL PATIENT ADJUSTABILITY

what does sleepwell cost
Sleepwell ™ can give you a restful night's sleep for less than 50p per night.
As with many healthcare products such as contact lenses the cost of Sleepwell ™ can be made more manageable with monthly payment schemes available from most snoring clinics.
The price of Sleepwell is from £395, this may vary subject to the amount of clinical time required.
How long does Sleepwell ™ last?
Sleepwell ™ should last around 3 years and in this context it is not too dissimilar to the replacement of spectacles. Solutions 4 Snoring offers a 1-year manufacturing guarantee.
Sleepwell ™ has been designed to overcome the problems leading to breakages with alternative splint designs. Due to it’s customised nature it would only need to be remade if patients underwent extensive dental treatment, however the cost of replacement would be minimised because of its two-piece design.
