  1. HOW TONGUE RETAINERS WORK TO TREAT SLEEP APNEA

  2. Tongue Retainer for Sleep Apnea Tongue retainers are a simple yet effective device used to treat sleep apnea by preventing the tongue from obstructing the airway during sleep. When a person with sleep apnea falls asleep, the muscles in their throat and tongue relax, causing the tongue to fall back and partially or completely block the airway.

  3. A tongue retainer is a small, flexible device that is placed in the mouth before sleeping and works by keeping the tongue in a forward position during sleep. • By keeping the tongue in a forward position, the tongue retainer prevents it from obstructing the airway and allows for better breathing, reducing or eliminating the symptoms of sleep apnea.

  4. Tongue retainers are a convenient and portable option for treating sleep apnea, compared to other treatments that require more equipment or monitoring. • While tongue retainers can be effective for many people with sleep apnea, they may not be suitable for those with severe cases or other underlying medical conditions.

  5. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if a tongue retainer is the right treatment option for you and to learn how to properly use and maintain the device
