Question by CJP: Sleep Apnea treatment: Dental device that allows you to breath through your mouth at night?
I’ve been officially diagnosed with sleep apnea in the mild to moderate range. I also suffer from depression (probably sleep deprivation induced) and insomnia (late to bed/early to rise). I sleep for between 3 to 5 hours a night. Obviously this isn’t enough sleep.

I’ve tried CPAP, but can’t get used to it, mainly due to my problems with insomnia (my mind has trouble being “quiet”). I have a hard time sleeping without the distraction of a CPAP, and WITH it…. it’s impossible for me to sleep. I litterally just DON’T SLEEP with it on. I’ve been trying for 2 months (seriously).

I know there are dental devices that relocate your jaw and tounge, but I seem to have problems mainly with my “soft palette”. I notice that if I breath through my mouth, it’s impossible for it to close off. SO, I was wondering if anyone uses or knows of a dental device that would have holes in it to allow you to breath through your mouth at night? Something like a mouth guard with a tube coming out… THANKS!
