Recognizing a real need the aveoTSD was developed to provide patients a simple device that effectively deals with excesssive snoring, and helps prevent the health problems that arise from sleep disordered breathing (snoring and obstructive sleep apnea)

• Snoring is a major cause of relationship breakdown
• Snoring, in itself, can cause hypertension and is a leading
indicator for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
• OSA is now seen as a primary cause of heart disease,
depression, diabetes, fatigue, loss of concentration, car accidents,
anxiety and aggression.

Over 20% of the population, men, women and children have OSA,
but 95% have not been diagnosed.

Treatment Comparisons:

CPAP – a machine that forces air through a mask while the patient sleeps. Cost – $1000+, with following costs for masks and filters. CPAP has less than a 45% compliance rate – cpap is uncomfortable, hard to transport and requires power.

Dental Implants – Mandibular Advancment Devices, the idea being to slowly advance the jaw over time, bringing the tongue forward to open the airway. Cost – $1600+, with followup. MAD’s are shown to work but have been shown to cause pain and problems with the jaw.

Surgery – There are numerous surgical procedures to solve snoring and OSA. The Pillar Procedure sets 3 tension pillars into the soft palate, other procedures are designed to reduce obstruction of the airway. Cost – $1500 – $10 000+. Invasive, painful, non corrective and efficacy is inconclusive.

There is no single treatment or device that will solve snoring and OSA for every patient. The goal is efficacy – how effective the treatment is for the majority; and compliance – do patients use the treatment to gain full effect.

At a cost of $150 US, the aveoTSD is a simple, effective and compliant device. It costs far less than all other common treatments, it has been clinically studied (FDA and Health Canada compliant)
