Study on Silicone Mouth Tape for Snoring and Mild Sleep Apnea

This study is looking at whether using a silicone mouth tape can help reduce snoring and mild sleep apnea. Snoring happens when tissues in your throat vibrate during sleep, which can affect your sleep quality and even your health. The silicone mouth tape is designed to keep your mouth closed while you sleep, but still allows you to breathe and cough if needed. We are looking for adults between 18 and 75 years old who snore and have a bed partner who can tell us about their snoring. You also need to have had a sleep study that showed no sleep apnea or only mild sleep apnea. The main goal is to see how the mouth tape affects your snoring after 3 months, based on a survey.
