Snoring and Sleep Apnoea in Wickham
Mandibular Advancement Devices for Snoring and Sleep Apnoea in Hampshire
If you or a loved one snores, you no longer have to put up with it!
Snoring treatment is available, and it’s more effective than ever. Snoring isn’t just a nuisance—it can be a sign of sleep apnoea, a serious condition that often goes undiagnosed for years. Sleep apnoea can lead to high blood pressure (hypertension), weight gain, and increased risk of heart disease. That’s why it’s essential to get checked out.
What Are Mandibular Advancement Devices?
Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) are custom dental appliances designed to gently move the lower jaw forward during sleep. This opens the airway, reducing snoring and improving airflow for those with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea. These devices are:
- Comfortable and discreet
- A proven alternative to CPAP for many patients
- Clinically effective for snoring and airway improvement

Why Treat Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Early?
Snoring is often dismissed, but if it’s happening regularly, it could indicate sleep apnoea. Left untreated, sleep apnoea can have serious consequences for your health and quality of life. Many people go undiagnosed for years, so early intervention is key.
Comprehensive Sleep Care
We provide a complete pathway for your airway health:
- Referral for sleep studies to medical practitioners
- CPAP machine referrals when required
- Collaboration with healthcare professionals for the best outcomes
Children’s Airway Screening
We also see children and begin screening from as young as seven years old. Why so early? Because future breathing problems often stem from the way jaws are growing—or not growing. Warning signs parents can spot include:
- Mouth breathing
- Snoring every week
Mouth breathing is common, but it’s not normal. If your child snores regularly, please seek advice. Early intervention can make a huge difference in their health and development.
