Important Tips

Tips for the AM Aligner Jaw Aligner

Daily Use

  • Consistent Morning Routine: Make it a habit to use the AM Aligner every morning after removing your mandibular advancement device. This consistency is key to preventing morning malocclusion and maintaining your natural bite.
  • Duration: Spend 5-10 minutes using the AM Aligner each morning. This short period is sufficient to guide your jaw back to its normal position.

Fitting and Setup

  • Initial Bite Registration: Before starting your mandibular advancement therapy, make sure to record your original bite using the AM Aligner. This ensures that the aligner captures the precise shape of your normal bite.
  • Reheat and Refit if Necessary: If the fit isn’t perfect the first time, you can reheat and refit the aligner. This helps achieve the most comfortable and effective setup.

Using the AM Aligner

  • Proper Placement: Ensure that the aligner fits snugly over your teeth and that the anterior teeth guide is correctly positioned to help you bite down properly.
  • Gentle Pressure: Apply gentle and consistent pressure when biting down on the aligner. Avoid biting too hard to prevent discomfort and ensure a smooth realignment process.
  • Relax Your Jaw: While using the aligner, try to relax your jaw muscles. This helps in guiding your jaw back to its natural position without added tension.

Maintenance and Care

  • Regular Cleaning: Clean the AM Aligner daily with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using hot water as it can warp the thermoplastic material.
  • Storage: Store the aligner in a clean, dry place when not in use. A protective case can help keep it safe and maintain its shape.

FAQs

What is the AM Aligner?

The AM Aligner is a morning bite-realignment device used after a mandibular advancement device (MAD). It is made by Airway Management. Each morning you bite into it for about 5 to 10 minutes to exercise your jaw back to its normal position.

Is the AM Aligner a treatment for sleep apnea?

No. The AM Aligner does not treat sleep apnea. It is used after your mandibular advancement device (oral appliance) to help prevent the temporary morning bite change, called morning malocclusion, that a MAD can cause.

What is morning malocclusion?

Morning malocclusion is a temporary change in how your teeth meet (your bite) after a night of wearing a mandibular advancement device. It is a common side effect, and a morning repositioner like the AM Aligner helps guide the jaw back to its usual position.

Does the AADSM recommend it?

An American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) panel suggests that a morning occlusal guide like the AM Aligner should be considered the first-line option for managing morning malocclusion caused by oral appliance therapy.

How do I fit the AM Aligner?

Fitting takes less than 10 minutes. Register your normal bite before you start mandibular advancement therapy, using hot water to soften the white thermoplastic until it turns clear, then bite down to capture the shape. If the fit is not right, you can reheat and refit it.

How do I use it each morning?

Wait about 15 to 30 minutes after removing your oral appliance, and gently stretch your jaw first (small pops can be normal). Then bite into the AM Aligner for about 5 to 10 minutes. The anterior teeth guide helps you bite down correctly so your jaw is guided back to its usual position.

How do I clean the AM Aligner?

Clean it daily with mild soap and warm water. Do not use hot water for cleaning, as it can warp the thermoplastic. Store it in a clean, dry place when not in use.

Do you need a prescription for the AM Aligner?

No. The AM Aligner is sold over the counter and does not require a prescription. It is a morning bite repositioner used after your oral appliance, not a sleep apnea treatment device.

Is the AM Aligner FSA/HSA eligible?

Yes. The AM Aligner is FSA/HSA eligible at Sleeplay.
