If noisy nights are keeping you awake, there are several different snore stoppers that you might want to look into. There are different ways to go about curing a snoring problem, depending on the cause of the noisy vibrations you're experiencing. Some of them are free, others will cost you several thousands of dollars (depending on whether or not you have health insurance that will cover the treatment).

The easiest of the snore stoppers is also the cheapest. All you have to do is roll over on your side as you go to sleep. By sleeping on your side, your tongue will be less likely to roll towards the back of your mouth, interfering with the flow of air from your mouth to your throat. If you've tried this already and it doesn't really work, it's time to take an objective look at your weight. Could you stand to lose a few pounds? If so, it's time to hit the jogging trail. Excess fat on your neck can put pressure on your breathing passages and cause you to snore like a beast in hibernation.

If you're not overweight and you smoke, it might be time to quit. While quitting smoking isn't very fun, it can have obvious long term health benefits and snore relief. When you smoke, mucus gets lodged in your throat. Combine that with the weakening muscles that smoking causes and you've got a recipe for snoring. If you still snore, the only snore stoppers that are left are going to cost you some money. Besides surgery, you can get fitted for a custom mandibular advancement splint that will push your lower jaw out a bit and your tongue forward. While you can make these on your own for less than $300, a professionally made one can cost up to ten times as much.
