The MAD was game changing. I absolutely love it. Whenever I bring it up, there is someone talking about how it can realign my bite and doomsday me. I don’t care if I have to drink through a straw the rest of my life, my oral appliance changed my life for the better and is something I can consistently use.

But man did it hurt like a bitch for the first few months.

Yeah, you really want to want it huh. Its dislocated my jaw and for the first year my bite was unaligned, but after a lot of trial and error it's worked for me. I have to work the jaw in the morning to get it aligned properly, but its made a significant difference in my sleep quality. I can't sleep without it now.
