Device Description
The SleepRight Snore Aid is a customizable adjustable, in 1mm increments up to 6mm total, intraoral mandibular advancement device (MAD). An adjustable stop moves the lower tray, which moves the mandible, to the desired user setting of a position that increases (opens) the pharyngeal space (airway), which aids in minimizing air obstruction and aids in the reduction of snoring during sleep.
The SleepRight Snore Aid consists of two independent, customizable moldable, via hot (not boiling) water and bite method, removable, thermoplastic resin injection molded trays, fitted into the user's mouth, that fit separately over the upper (maxillary) and lower (mandibular) dental arches. The upper tray is provided with an adjustable advancement stop mechanism, one on each side of the rear of the upper tray, that provides the incremental 1mm up to 6mm total adjustment. The lower tray is provided with a fin, one on each side of the tray. As the adjustable advancement stop mechanism on each side of the upper tray is incrementally adjusted, the adjustable advancement stop mechanism on each side of the upper tray engages the fin, in a mating position on each side of the lower tray, stabilizing the mandible in a neutral posture or advances the mandible forward until the desired position that opens the airway and aids in a reduction of snoring during sleep is obtained by the user. Because the mandible is attached to the Oropharynx airway tissues (throat), and its posterior movement collapses the airway, stabilizing the mandible in a neutral or advanced forward position opens the airway for improved breathing. Having two independent dental arch trays allows for freedom of movement of the jaw musculature resulting in more user comfort, compliance and efficacy. Necessary Inspiratory and expiratory rapid expulsion of air is also improved.

Risks To Health:
Per the Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea – Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Industry and FDA, Section 5, the FDA has identified risks to health generally associated with the use of intraoral devices for snoring and/or obstructive sleep apnea. The FDA has provided recommended mitigation measures for these identified risks.
Identified risks:
- Intraoral gingival, palatal or dental soreness
- Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Dysfunction Syndrome
- Obstruction of oral breathing
- Loosening or flaring of lower anterior teeth or general tooth movement
Recommended mitigation measures:
- Material Composition
- Testing
- Labeling
Page 11
Testing - Biocompatibility:
Biocompatibility Testing, of materials that comprise the SleepRight Snore Aid, has been previously conducted on the same materials for the Splintek, Inc. SleepRight Pro Rx Dental Guard and predicate devices. Use of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy was used to identify the identity of the Polycarbonate material of the predicate and reference devices.
The Biocompatibility Testing of the same materials included:
- ISO 10993-5 Cytotoxicity
- ISO 10993-10 Sensitization
- ISO 10993-23 Irritation
Results concluded Biocompatibility Testing of materials to be in accordance with ISO 10993-5 (Cytotoxicity), ISO 10993-10 (Sensitization) and ISO 10993-23 (Irritation).
In accordance with FDA's classification, the SleepRight Snore Aid is considered to have permanent contact with mucosal membranes. As such, the relevant endpoints include cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, subacute/subchronic toxicity, and genotoxicity. Based on the material equivalence to predicate devices and previous testing in legally marketed devices, subacute/subchronic toxicity and genotoxicity were not tested and are justified as not needed per ISO 10993-1.
All biocompatibility tests performed passed the acceptance criteria in accordance with applicable ISO standards.
As the materials and processes for the Splintek, Inc. SleepRight Snore Aid are identical to the FDA 510(k) Splintek, Inc. SleepRight Pro Rx Dental Guard, SleepRight Advance dental guard and predicate and reference devices, Biocompatibility Testing of materials was not conducted.
Testing - Clinical:
Clinical testing was not conducted as the SleepRight Snore Aid is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices in relation to design, materials, manufacturing, intended use, labeling and function.
Page 12
Testing - Non-Clinical:
Physical property data for polycarbonate mechanical properties include:
- Flexural Strength
- Elastic Modulus
- Compressive Strength
- Surface Hardness
- Water Sorption
- Water Solubility
These properties are representative of the final finished component as the material is used unmodified and processed per the manufacturer specifications.
The SleepRight Snore Aid device materials have been tested to various properties such as Tensile Properties and Flexural Properties by each material manufacturer as noted in Technical Data Sheets. The materials that comprise the SleepRight Snore Aid are the same materials that comprise the FDA Cleared 510(k) SleepRight Pro Rx, SleepRight Advance Dental Mouthguard, predicate and reference devices.
The physical properties of each component material were assessed using manufacturer-supplied technical data sheets. Testing included ASTM D790 (Flexural Strength), ASTM D638 (Tensile Strength), ASTM D695 (Compressive Strength), ASTM D2240 (Surface Hardness), ASTM D570 (Water Sorption), and ASTM D896 (Water Solubility). These tests were conducted by the material manufacturers and documented in each material's Technical Data Sheet (TDS). All materials met or exceeded benchmark acceptance criteria for intraoral use in accordance with the applicable ASTM standards.
Page 13
