1) A boil and bite double mouthguard with airway will, in fact, work as a 'stop snoring' aid. I boiled it, I bit into it with my lower teeth out past my upper teeth, and then dunked it in cold water.
2) It caused so much jaw pain that I want to kill myself.

It caused no problems during the nap, but actually sleeping with it in was a whole nother story. I woke up at 5, went to sleep on the couch, took the appliance out at 8, actually woke up around 10 - it is almost 4pm and I am still suffering.

But? I didn't snore.

To add irony to this whole thing, the other person in bed - who never snores - did. I thought he was messing with me until I saw that no, he was actually deeply asleep. And snoring. LOUDLY.

PSA: Don't try to laugh while laying on your back with a mouthguard in. You will choke to death on drool.

The experiment being a success, I am now going to invest in a properly fitted mouthpiece that will, hopefully, not cause this amount of pain.

Still don't like That Guy.

As we get older we are more inclined to snore... you can harass him with that ;)
