Summary

This study tests if a custom mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device) can safely and effectively treat severe sleep apnea in people who cannot use a CPAP machine and whose nerve stimulation therapy did not work. About 30 adults will use the device at home and have their sleep breathing measured. The goal is to see if the device can reduce breathing pauses during sleep enough to improve health.
