According to clinical studies, a tongue retaining device can help improve snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) without the need of using a CPAP machine. In this page you'll discover how the apnea tongue device works, how effective it is, how to use it properly, and what are its side effects.
Oral appliance therapy treats sleep apnea by helping remove physical blockages from the upper airway. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) help clear the airway by moving the jaw forward, while tongue-stabilizing devices (TSDs) help clear the airway by moving the tongue forward.
A tongue retaining device, or tongue stabilizing device, is a type of oral appliance that is worn in the mouth during sleep. It’s designed to hold the tongue in a forward position to help prevent it from blocking the airway.
The device, called the eXciteOSA, is a tongue muscle stimulator that gives neuromuscular stimulation to the tongue and is meant for adult patients. According to the FDA, the device works by...
