First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a silicone mouth tape worn during sleep can reduce snoring and improve sleep quality in people with mild sleep apnea or simple snoring. About 100 adults with a bed partner will use the tape for a period, and both the snorer and partner will report on snoring, sleep quality, and how easy the tape was to use. The goal is to find a cheap, easy alternative to CPAP or surgery.
