Anti Snoring Mouth Guard – Clinically Proven 91% Effective Snore Stopper with Patented Tongue Stabilization Strap - Custom Fit - FSA/HSA Approved Snoring Solution (Green)

Let's be clear. I wanted to give a feedback greater than 1 star, but the cost and timeline will not allow. I purchased the Zyppah mouthpiece November 2019. I didn't tell my wife who desperately needed it to work in an attempt to see if she notices a difference. She didn't say anything, but was sleeping back in our bed and she was not tapping, hitting, or nudging (waking) me any longer! I guess it was working.?!What's great about the mouthpiece is the fact that it pulls the mandible (jaw) forward and holds the tongue in place. What's terrible about the mouthpiece is the fact that it pulls the mandible (jaw) forward and holds the tongue in place. After using the mouthpiece for one day, my jaw and bottom front teeth were so sore that I had to put my Philips Sonicare toothbrush on the low/sensitive setting and turn down the water intensity on my Waterpik. I typically read a lot of reviews before purchasing anything, which is why I was not alarmed after the pain. I continued to use in hopes that the pain went away. Although the pain did not go away, it did subside and become manageable enough to want to continue using.The website says, "With normal use, your Zyppah should be replaced every 3-4 months. If you grind your teeth, you may need to replace it more often."The self-molding material is great at first because its sticky, which helps keep the mouthpiece in place while you sleep. As time goes on, the self-molding material pulls away and up from the corner edges where the tongue strap is located. The tongue strap also stretches over time and does not hold the tongue in place as well.I remolded the mouthpiece several other times in an attempt to make the mouthpiece more comfortable or reattach the self-molding material. This worked for a short period of time, but I found myself needing to do this every couple of weeks.Before I forget, you will drool A LOT! Unless you can manage to keep your mouth closed the entire night, its going to happen. I typically do not drool while I sleep so it was extremely alarming to wake up in the middle of the night with what felt like a pool of saliva on my pillow. Grossed out, I flipped my pillow over and went back to sleep. The next night I changed my pillow cases and wrapped my pillow in two towels to help absorb the pooled saliva.Initially I overlooked all the issues I and many others had because I and my wife was in fact sleeping better, but the mouthpiece needs to be upgraded with better quality materials and details to the self-molding material. For the $99.95 price tag, I believe the company can do a better job with the mouthpiece materials and construction. Knowing there is a market of desperate people needing snoring relief, but putting out a device that lasts only 3-4 months top at a premium price tag ($400-$300/year) says a lot about the company. I almost purchased another mouthpiece after mine lasted 2 months before my wife started nudging me due to snoring, but I decided to research some other devices.I don't mind spending a premium on a product that works well, lasts, and is made well, but the Zyppah mouthpiece fails on 50% of my criteria.

I will continue to get these until they no longer work, but they make a world of difference in my snoring level while sleeping and aren’t near as expensive as other custom-made snoring devices.

This mouthpiece is not for everyone. I went through the process, tried fitting it and the way it shaped it does not have any movement for the width of your teeth. It’s definitely uncomfortable hard to get used to. But the way that they make it is just too narrow for the back of my teeth, which caused issues With the tongue depressor and I tried to use it for a few nights and it wound up cutting the inside of my mouth because it has very hard plastic and it’s not smooth. The tongue depressor broke off during the nighttime and I almost choked to death on it. I’m just so disappointed that I couldn’t get a return or even partial return for an item that Didn’t work at all. And I think it may help but because they don’t have sizes and this is just too small for my mouth. Put us in a bad position to do something. I never do. This may be the first review I’ve done. I just think They should give you partial credit or something when a product is supposed to fit all or most and doesn’t work. I’m just so disappointed in this company. I thought I was going to have an opportunity to try something and wound up, causing me to lose sleep and wake up, terrified and gagging. If you have any dental work or your mouth is bigger than most. Do not buy this product. I would review the product for what it was intended, but I had no opportunity to do that. Just a bad experience. It was just a waste of money.Buyer beware.

Night 1...1st: the mouth peice is definitely small. I bought the green/grey assuming it was sized for men... its jist as small as the pink one i ordered and returned... my molars hang off the back but it still holds in place.2nd: it works! My snoring progressively got worse over the past couple years and is now really bad! I know because my wife was kind enough to record me without my consent, and replay it for me... IT WORKS!!! My anoring stopped. First try.3rd: it doesnt really hold down your tongue, but it pulls your bottom jaw forward, and opens your airway. It does this by alighning the mouth peice in a way that forces you yo push your jaw forward to get your top teeth into the tray... downside to this... my jaw was freakin sore, to the point that it woke me up because i had to remove and stratch my jaws.4th: another review said you have to sleep with your mouth shut for it to work... i dont know how/why you would because A. The mouthpiece separates your jaws and itd be hard to keep your lips shut. And B. The whole point is to open your airway, so why would you close your mouth?And 5th: drool, swallow, or drown... pick one. Despite what the instruction manuel lamely says, your brain is not "telling your mouth to salivate because there is food in your mouth." (Who TF approved that claim?) You're drooling because your mouth is open. So let it flow, see if you can swallow with a mouthpiece in your mouth ( good luck), or just see if you dont drown in your own saliva.Bottom line... it works. But not without its drawbacks. Knowing what i know now, 100bucks is steep for the discomfort level. But on the flip side, 100bucks is worth not having the wife nag in the morning about my snoring. As the saying goes... inconvenienced husband = happy wife.NIGHT 2 AND BOYOND!!!. I CAN'T! MY JAW FEELS LIKE MIKE TYSON PUNCHED ME!!! I don't have an overbite, but the way the mouthpiece pulls my jaw forward from 2 consecutive nights, has taken 2 additional days to subside. I wore it for 2 nights and had to stop. so that makes today the second morning since i last wore it and my jaw is still a bit sore.
