The invention refers to a device for preventing or reducing snoring and a procedure for manufacturing said device. The device consists of bite rails (5, 6) fixable over on the teeth (2) of an upper jaw (1) and the teeth (4) of a lower jaw (3), said two bite rails (5, 6) are formed from a laminate (7), including at least one layer of material (8) in close flexible contact with the teeth (2, 4) and at least one outer hard layer of material (9), said laminate (7) in cross section being substantially U-shaped including the flexible layer of material (8) and said bite rails (5, 6), after establishing the correct position of the lower jaw (3) in relation to the upper jaw (1), have been permanently sealed to each other via the outer layer of material by at least one flexible, strong, and hygienic seal (11). In the process of manufacturing the device for preventing or reducing snoring the two bit rails (5, 6) are temporarily fixed to each other by fixing in position to each other at least once by a curable material at least at two points or places (10) while establishing the correct position of the lower jaw (3) in relation to the upper jaw (1), whereafter, after the final confirmation of the correct position of the jaw (1, 3), they are permanently fixed to each other by at least one flexible, strong, and hygienic seal (11). |
