Ooventus 3d scanning for sleep apnea
3d scanning helps create a custom sleeping mouthpiece
There is nothing worse than having your walls shake in the night from someone snoring next to you or in the next room. Although it’s easy for your roommates to laugh off the disruptions, there are some major issues that come with snoring, specifically, sleep apnea. According to the Mayo Clinic, sleep apnea is a potentially dangerous sleep disorder in which the sleeper repeatedly stops and starts breathing throughout the night. It’s almost like the sleeper holds their breath for long pauses. It’s not only scary for your roommates, but it might also prevent the sleeper from getting a good night’s sleep.
An Australian company, Oventus, is about to release a new device which will help people whose air passages get blocked during the night hours. It’s produced through 3D scanning and 3D printing. First, a 3D scan takes an image of your mouth, and then the company is able to 3D print a device that fits your mouth perfectly. This device is designed specifically to help people get a better nights sleep and to cut down on snoring. After raising up the millions of dollars worth of funds needed to get it on the market, it is now ready for launch.
