You deserve to sleep quietly and wake up feeling refreshed. At Thornley Park Dental, we offer comfortable, effective solutions so you (and everyone around you) can enjoy better sleep.
Snoring happens when something partially blocks your airway while you sleep. Usually, the tongue or soft tissues at the back of your throat sag or collapse, letting air vibrate those soft areas and produce the sound of snoring. Things like weight, age, alcohol, smoking, and sleeping position can all make snoring more likely.

Often, snoring is just disruptive, but sometimes it’s more than that. Loud snoring or gasping while sleeping could be a sign of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). Left untreated, OSA can lead to problems like high blood pressure, tiredness during the day, heart issues, or worse health outcomes. It’s always worth getting it checked.
Most people adapt quickly. SleepWell is crafted to feel light and unobtrusive. The soft lining and design make it feel more comfortable in the mouth than many expect. You’ll probably notice some adjustment as your mouth gets used to it, but we’ll guide you every step of the way and make sure it fits well.
Some snorers notice improvement from the very first night; for others, it takes a few nights of adjustment. Usually, within a couple of weeks, you should feel more rested, with quieter sleep for both you and your partner.
Sometimes yes. If your screening shows that your snoring might be part of a larger issue like OSA, we may recommend a formal sleep study or refer you to a sleep specialist. Taking early action helps protect your sleep health and overall well-being.
