Many people would snore less if they would breathe through their nose at night, not their mouth.

If you are used to having a stuffy nose, you have probably learned to breathe through your mouth at night.  Even once you learn to keep your nose clearer (perhaps using nasal strips or sprays or, perhaps, nasal surgery), you may continue to mouth-breathe through habit.

Breathing through your mouth is bad for several reasons, one of which is that your mouth will dry out, resulting in loud snoring.  By one estimate, as many as 85% of snorers sleep with their mouths open.   Not surprisingly, several products attack the problem of snoring by trying to change the way you breathe.


Product List

	The Chin-Up Strip keeps your mouth shut at night through the use of a U-shaped adhesive strip that curls around your lower lip.
	A heavier-duty solution is the Nose Breathe Mouthpiece for Heavy Snorer, which is a mouthpiece that presses your tongue to the roof of the mouth creating a lip seal that pretty much forces you to breathe through your nose.
	The SnorEnder looks like a chin strap but adds acupressure and magnetic therapy to help reduce snoring.
	The  Nellcor chin strap is available from Allegro Medical
	Another chin strap comes from ActiveForever.com
	Various chin straps are also available from the CPAP Store
	The Snore Seal uses adhesive strips to seal your mouth closed.  You can breathe gently but not noisily through your mouth via the baffle that connects the strips.
	Also consider two products from down under: Snorgon, and
	Snore Stopper, both soft collars that elevate your chin during sleep and keep your airways open.
