Who Benefits From
Oral Appliance
Therapy?
Your Bed Partner
While the primary goal of oral devices is to improve the sleep and health of the person wearing
them, there are several indirect benefits for bed partners as well. With less snoring noise, bed
partners are less likely to experience sleep disruptions, leading to improved sleep quality and
duration.
Enhanced intimacy: The reduction in snoring noise and sleep disruptions can promote a more peaceful and comfortable sleeping environment, which may contribute to improved intimacy between partners who may have previously resorted to sleeping in separate rooms due to the snoring.
Better overall relationship: Reduced sleep disruptions and the resulting decrease in irritability and frustration can create a more positive atmosphere within the relationship.
Enhanced compliance: The use of oral devices can sometimes be a more convenient and comfortable alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, which may increase the likelihood that the person with snoring or sleep apnea will consistently use their treatment. When the snorer uses the device regularly, it benefits both their health and their bed partner's sleep.

Snoring
Does your bed partner complain about your snoring? Snoring can cause serious issues in your relationship. Revive your relationship and give your health a boost by using Oral Appliance Therapy with Arora.
Snoring occurs when the muscles in your soft palate, tongue and throat relax during sleep to the point where they partially block your airway and vibrate as you breathe. Most people snore occasionally. For some, it can be disruptive to them and their partner’s sleep and lead to issues while awake.
Symptoms to look out for:
- Snoring that occurs three or more times per week
- Very loud or bothersome snoring
- Snoring with gasping, choking, or snorting sounds
- Lack of focus or mental sharpness
- Morning headaches and congestion

This can lead to further health complications if untreated – not to mention fatigue in those with sleep apnea and their bed partners.
Symptoms to look out for:
- Disrupted breathing
- Excessive daytime sleepiness
- Morning headaches
- Irritability
- Limited attention span or difficulty thinking clearly
