I think it is call "Pure Sleep". A mouth piece to push jaw forward to help eliminate the palate from vibrating. My husband's snoring is very bad. He went to a sleep clinic and could not sleep with all the hook-ups. Plus the attendant had an attitude.
They both got mad and he said he will never do that again. Also is there a way that his GP would write a prescription for the breathing appratus withour going thru the sleep clinic. I know he needs it.

Any dentist can prescribe this device. My husband had one and it did help the snoring quite a bit but he managed to bite down on it in his sleep hard enough to break it more than once so after getting it fixed a few times, we just gave up on it. He complained it was uncomfortable, especially at first. I have no idea how much it costs or if insurance covers it. I got it for cost since I work for a dentist.
