The new collection of chrome cobalt oral devices from Somnowell cover a considerable number of a conditions. From snoring and sleep apnoea to bruxism and orthodontic retention. The Somnowell devices represent the top end of the market, referred to by many professionals as the Rolls Royce of oral appliances.
The Somnowell device for bruxism looks much like the Somnowell mandibular advancement appliance utilised for snoring and sleep apnoea. There’s a upper piece and a lower piece that correspond to the upper and lower teeth. There’s a connector on the left and right side that is placed in the mostly redundant cheek area.
The upper and lower parts have little clasps that perfectly hold some of the teeth and help keep it firmly in place. They also cover small parts of the top surfaces of some of the teeth. This protects the teeth by stopping them coming into contact with each other. It also keeps the teeth in position, avoiding unwanted tooth movements and stopping any over eruptions.
The chrome cobalt alloy used to make the upper and lower parts is a very durable and strong material. Like gold it is excellent for long-term use in the mouth. But unlike plastic it does not experience wear or tear in the oral environment. The bruxist‘s teeth are shielded by a very strong and smooth thin layer of chrome cobalt alloy.
The connecting parts hold the lower jaw forward and by doing this move the lower jaw into a another position than it would normally be in when clenching and grinding. This forward position is also called the ‘recovery position’. While asleep the bruxist‘s jaw muscles can relax and heal. Changing the position of the lower jaw during sleep also helps to deprogram the neuro-muscular system, likely discouraging the sufferer from further clenching and grinding.
Each Somnowell device is tailor made for the individual. Detailed records of the bruxist‘s teeth and jaw arrangement are taken. The result is a long-lasting, small, discreet and exceedingly comfortable oral appliance for the professional management of bruxism.
