About
Sleep Better. Breathe Easier.
If snoring is keeping you—or your partner—awake at night, a custom-made oral appliance may provide a comfortable and effective solution.
At New Age Smiles, we provide custom anti-snoring appliances designed to gently reposition the lower jaw during sleep. This helps keep the airway open, reducing snoring and improving airflow throughout the night.
For many patients with primary snoring or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a custom oral appliance can provide a comfortable and effective treatment option. It may also be recommended for patients who cannot tolerate CPAP or prefer an alternative treatment.
What Is an Anti-Snoring Appliance?
An anti-snoring appliance is a custom-made oral device worn while you sleep. It fits comfortably over your teeth and gently holds your lower jaw slightly forward, helping prevent the airway from collapsing during sleep.
Unlike over-the-counter products, each appliance is individually designed for your mouth to maximize comfort, fit, and effectiveness.
We Offer the EMA® Sleep Appliance
The EMA® (Elastic Mandibular Advancement) appliance is a lightweight custom oral appliance used to treat snoring and selected cases of obstructive sleep apnea.
Its unique elastic strap design allows controlled forward positioning of the lower jaw while permitting natural jaw movement, making it comfortable for many patients.
The EMA appliance is custom fabricated specifically for your bite following a comprehensive assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the appliance comfortable?
Most patients adapt within a few nights. Because every appliance is custom-made, it is generally much more comfortable than over-the-counter devices.
Can it replace CPAP?
For many patients with primary snoring or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), oral appliance therapy can be an effective treatment. However, CPAP remains the most effective treatment for moderate to severe OSA, and some patients may still require CPAP or other therapies. Following a comprehensive assessment, we'll determine whether an oral appliance is the most appropriate treatment for your individual needs.
How do I clean it?
Clean your appliance daily using a soft toothbrush and mild soap or a cleaner recommended by your dentist. Avoid hot water, which may distort the appliance.
How long does it last?
With proper care and regular reviews, a custom oral appliance can provide many years of service.
