A protrusion device (PDD) – or snoring device – is a custom-made medical device used to treat snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. It is made of plastic and is worn in the mouth while sleeping to slightly advance the lower jaw (protrusion). This keeps the airway open during sleep, alleviating or stopping snoring and preventing apnea. At Clinic Profilance, the device is custom-made for each patient and, thanks to its precise fit, offers a high level of comfort.
