<h3>Derek\u2019s story<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cBefore I found my sleep dentist I was sleeping with my CPAP device. This posed several problems for me. Most are the obvious: wearing the CPAP mask, trying to sleep with a hose attached to your face, having to travel with it, and then my allergy issues became more severe.<\/p>\n<p>Maintenance is a pain as well. My SomnoDent<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> device has allowed me to enjoy life a bit more without the hassle of a CPAP. And, there is the added benefit of not having to make sure I have a source of power available. Which means, I can go camping again! I would recommend the SomnoDent<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> device to anyone with obstructive sleep apnea. It is life changing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><strong>- Derek<\/strong><\/p>\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n                      <div class=\"el-slider-text__slide\">\r\n              <div class=\"el-slider-text__slide-inner balance-elements\" style=\"background-color: #C1CAE3; color: #000000; \">\r\n                <h3>Izy\u2019s story<\/h3>\n<p>For years I fought with my CPAP, I literally tried 15 masks and I will never ever go back to CPAP after discovering SomnoDent<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>. I love it and so does my family because they can finally sleep in peace.<\/p>\n<p>I can carry it, no more lugging around that extra CPAP baggage, I just throw my SomnoDent<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> device and case in my backpack and keep going. I truly am a big fan and if I can encourage others to switch to SomnoMed<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, I know for a fact their quality of life would improve tremendously.
