The Hushd Avera device is intended to reduce or alleviate snoring.

The Hushd Avera device is a removable intraoral non-patient specific device used for treating snoring. The device consists of multiple trays that fit over the upper and lower teeth. When the upper and lower tray engages, the device functions as a mandibular repositioner holding the mandible forward during sleep thus preventing the tongue and soft tissues of the throat from collapsing into the airway.

The Hushd Avera device is a "Boil and Bite" device where both the upper and lower trays are constructed out of moldable soft ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) material with rigid polypropylene (PP) outer shells.

Hushd Avera consists of one upper and two lower trays. Each upper tray contains a trapezoidal block on each side of the posterior to mate with the lower tray. An identification mark is placed on the blocks. The blocks and the outer shell of the upper tray are molded in one piece.

Each lower tray contains a vertical dorsal fin on each side of the posterior to serve as mating mechanism. The fins are triangular shaped at approximately 12.0mm(H) x 12.0mm(W) x 2.5mm(D). The mating surface of the fins are flat to ensure stable positioning of the upper and lower trays against each other. An identification mark is placed on the dorsal fins. The dorsal fins and the outer shell of the lower tray are molded in one piece.

There are no additional clip-on mechanisms connecting the upper and lower trays.

Relative to the upper tray (U), the first lower tray (L1) is positioned 1.0mm forward from an edge-to-edge position, while the upper tray (U) and the second lower tray (L2) have an additional 2.0mm protrusion. The user can select between the two positions as needed.

Therefore, the maximum protrusion is +3mm from edge to edge while using L2.

There are no variants for this device and it is available only in one configuration.
