SomnoDent® Avant™
SomnoDent® Avant™ er vores mest behagelige tandskinne til dags dato. Tandskinnens over- og underdel er computergenereret og robotproduceret for højeste præcision og passer dermed perfekt til netop din tandform. Skinnen er støbt ud af ét enkelt stykke dental plast for ekstra slidstærke egenskaber og lang holdbarhed.
Hertil kommer den bløde b-flex Comfort Liner™, der nænsomt omslutter og beskytter dine tænder og fungerer nogenlunde på samme måde som den affjedrende sål i dine løbesko. Det gør tandskinnen langt mere behagelig at bruge end andre tandskinner, ligesom den bliver hvor den skal – hele natten. Al erfaring viser, at jo mere behagelig skinnen er at have på, jo mere vil den blive brugt, hvilket har stor betydning for behandlingseffekten.
Det innovative design bag SomnoDent® Avant™ hjælper dig med at trække vejret gennem næsen og holde munden lukket, hvilke forhindrer snorken og tør mund hos langt de fleste brugere. Tør mund er ellers et hyppigt problem hos mange brugere af tandskinner (og CPAP).
Sådan fremstiller vi SomnoDent® Avant™
Som første trin i produktionsprocessen sender din tandlæge os et scan af dine tænder. Ud fra dette billede designer SomnoMed® en tandskinne, der er perfekt tilpasset netop dine tænder og kæbeform. Denne del af processen udføres ved hjælp af CAD-software (Computer Assisted Design).
Når vi er færdige med at designe din individuelle skabelon, går vi i gang med at konstruere selve tandskinnen ved hjælp af computerstyrede robotter. Robotten skærer designet ud fra ét enkelt stykke dentalplast – tests har nemlig vist, at denne metode giver et langt mere slidstærkt og holdbart resultat. Herefter tilføjer vi b-flex Comfort Liner™ for ekstra komfort, og til sidst sliber vi alle overflader, så der ikke er nogen skarpe kanter eller andet til at genere.
Når tandskinnen er færdig, tester vi den ved hjælp af en 3D-printet model af din mund. Vi tjekker pasformen samt at tandskinnen stemmer fuldstændig overens med de tilsendte specifikationer fra din tandlæge. Når vi er sikre på at alt er som det skal være, sender vi tandskinnen til din tandlæge, hvor du kan hente den hele forløbet varer ca.3 uger Nu er du klar til at påbegynde din behandling.

Patient stories
Michael’s story
“I have been using my Somnomed® device for about two years now. It has completely improved the quality of sleep that I get and consequently certain aspects of my life for the better.
On the rare occasion that I forget to put it in the device my sleep deteriorates immediately. It’s invaluable.” Read more
Liz’s story
“Having suffered jaw and tooth pain over several months and following several appointments with my GP and regular dentist to no avail, I asked April (dentist) if she could give me a second opinion. After careful consultation April suggested that sleep apnoea and teeth grinding might be behind the issues and recommended a Somnomed® device to wear at night. Read more
Simon’s story
“My name is Simon Wilsdon I am a general dentist in York with a special interest in dental sleep medicine. Over several years I have experienced mild sleep apnoea and, unfortunately for my wife, loud snoring. I have tried several different mandibular advancement devices over the years. These have given initial improvement but nothing long lasting and were uncomfortable over time. After investigating different options, I decided to give the new SomnoMed® Avant™ appliance a try.

Mohammed’s story
Mohammed was diagnosed with Severe Sleep Apnoea in 2018.
“For the first year after my diagnosis, I had a CPAP machine in the home, but I really struggled with it, due to the anxiety of the mask being on my face all night. When I saw my Sleep Consultant, I was advised that I should not drive, and my driving license has now been revoked for more than 2 years. I have a family at home, with four children, so having no driving license has really affected our day-to-day lives. Little things like food shopping and trips out are much more difficult. Read more
Roy’s story
Like many people, l became aware that l was snoring during the night and feeling tired in the morning. This led me down the route of seeing my GP who felt l may have obstructive sleep apnoea and referred me to the hospital for further tests. There, l was given the Epworth Sleep Study questionnaire to complete which indicated l had daytime sleepiness but not severely. However further investigation was necessary and an overnight hospital stay was arranged where l had a sleep study conducted. Read more
