What is a Mandibular Advancement Splint and how does it work?

A Mandibular Advancement Splint (MAS) is a custom-made oral device used to treat snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). It works by gently positioning the lower jaw (mandible) slightly forward during sleep, which helps to keep the airway open and reduce airway obstruction.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
