OSAHS is one of the most prevalent sleep-related breathing disorders. Early signs often include habitual snoring caused by airway narrowing. As the condition progresses, patients may experience repeated breathing interruptions during sleep, which not only impair rest quality but are also linked to serious cardiovascular and metabolic risks.
The Smartee Sleep Aligners Series addresses this challenge through digitally customized clear aligners with a dual-splint locking system that advances the mandible while distributing occlusal forces to stabilize the jaw. This mandibular repositioning increases the volume of the velopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airways, improving airflow and alleviating OSAHS symptoms. Additionally, the appliance helps to reposition the mandible, which also leads to improved tongue base positioning, contributing to an expanded pharyngeal airway and reduced obstruction.
