The anti-snoring chin strap has been around for a while. Sometimes they are also called a chin up strap. This is because of what they do to prevent you from snoring. It’s a very simple device so don’t believe the hype and pay too much for one.

How Do They Work?

A chin strap works by holding your chin up at night while you sleep. This is accomplished by holding the bottom of your jaw up in a sling like fashion.

Typically one end of a chin strap goes around the back of your head, near the top, while the other end will support your jaw. This keeps your mouth from hanging open while you sleep.

Was doing a search and read from this site on snoring.

Quote:
COPING:
People who suffer mild or occasional snoring, who wake up feeling refreshed, and function well during the day may first try the following behavioral remedies, before consulting their doctor:

Lose weight
- Avoid tranquilizers, sleeping pills, and antihistamines before bedtime
- Avoid alcohol for at least four hours and heavy meals or snacks for three hours before retiring
- Establish regular sleeping patterns
- Sleep on your side rather than your back

TREATMENT:
Snorers are generally unaware of their snoring, and must rely on the observations of their bed-partners. Some snorers may wake up at night choking and gasping for breath, but this occurs relatively infrequently. If you have been told that your snoring is disturbing to others, or you have some of the symptoms and signs listed above, consult your doctor. He or she will take your history, perform a physical exam and will determine whether you require a consultation with a sleep specialist and a sleep test to determine if you have sleep apnea and to see how your snoring affects your sleep quality.

Depending on the results of the sleep study, you will be presented with a series of options to treat snoring. These will generally include:

- lifestyle modification (i.e. avoidance of risk factors mentioned above, sleep position training if applicable, treatment of allergies if applicable, etc…);
- surgery (generally on the back of the throat and roof of the mouth, or the nose if applicable, using a variety of instruments including scalpel, laser, or microwaves);
- appliances (mainly oral appliances constructed by a dentist experienced in treatment of snoring and sleep apnea, but also other appliances such as nasal dilators);
- and sometimes CPAP (a continuous positive airway pressure appliance which blows room air into the back of the throat thus preventing it from collapse).

The latter method is the treatment of choice for sleep apnea. If you are diagnosed

Has anyone gone for surgery for this snoring issue? Any idea what's the cost?

I exercise about 3x weekly on average, diet is ok, not obese, yet I know my snoring is an issue. Just hope to solve it.

Am hoping to go straight for treatment if it's affordable. It doesn't disturb me but I know it'll disturb whoever is w me.
