Why do I snore so loud?
When you sleep, the tissues in your throat relax, sometime enough to block your airway and cause vibrations. The more your airway is narrowed, the louder you will snore as the airflow is more forced, causing the vibrations to increase
What is the best position to sleep in when snoring?
Lying on your back can make your snoring louder as it makes your tongue and soft palate collapse to the back of your throat. If you sleep on your side, your snoring may be reduced.
Can you snore with your mouth closed?
It’s possible to snore even when your mouth is closed. In fact, it can make the snoring even louder than if you have your mouth open.
How can you sleep next to someone that is snoring?
There are a number of options to help you sleep, even if it’s not you snoring. These include:
How does a Panthera anti snore device work?
When the device is worn during sleep, it pulls the lower jaw forward. This advancement clears the back of the tongue, which helps to open the upper airway. Opening the airway facilitates the passage of air, therefore reducing snoring.

Clenching, headaches, pain when chewing… these can all be signs of TMJ problems.
In this video, Yasmin explains some of the common symptoms people experience and how treatments using neurotoxins can help relax the muscles around the jaw.
For some patients, this can reduce tension, relieve discomfort and improve day-to-day symptoms.
If you’ve been experiencing jaw pain or tension, it may be worth having a conversation about your options.

🪥 Smile hack: timing your tooth brushing
Did you know that brushing your teeth straight after eating isn’t always the best idea?
In this quick video, Maggie explains why it’s better to wait a little while before brushing. After eating, especially acidic foods and drinks, the enamel on your teeth can be temporarily softened. Brushing too soon can actually cause more wear.
Waiting around 30 minutes gives your saliva time to neutralise the acids and protect your teeth.
Watch Maggie’s smile hack to learn the simple change that can help keep your teeth healthier.

What exactly is a dental crown?
In this video, Carol explains how crowns help restore and protect teeth that have been weakened by cracks, root canal treatment or large fillings.
A crown acts like a protective cap, binding the tooth together and giving it the strength it needs for everyday biting and chewing.
Watch the video to learn when a crown may be recommended and how it helps protect your smile.

Did you know that chewing sugar free gum after eating can actually help protect your teeth? 🍬➡️🦷
In this video, Carol explains why dentists often recommend sugar free gum after meals. Chewing gum stimulates saliva, which helps wash away food particles and neutralise acids that can lead to tooth decay.
It’s not a replacement for brushing, but it can be a helpful extra habit when you’re out and about and can’t brush your teeth straight away.
