For people who suffer from snoring and sleep apnea, a solution has been found recently that invokes tools usually reserved for babies.

A device similar to a baby’s pacifier is being studied in Europe that is tentatively looking like an inexpensive alternative to CPAP machines as a cure for sleep apnea and snoring.

It works by forcing the tongue into a forward position in the mouth. A suction device sits at the end of what would be the nipple of the pacifier, and a bulb extends out of the mouth to be used to engage the suction.

The theory is that if the tongue can be prevented from falling backwards during sleep, it will therefore prevent obstruction from occurring when the muscles and tissues relax in the back of the mouth and in the throat.

While sleep scientists caution that more scientific studies should be done, the device’s creators maintain that their studies have shown it to be effective for more than 40% of the people who use it.
