Note:
- People don’t like an obtrusive device, such as CPCA and MAD, straps to
their face, or blocks in their mouse. Most people are afraid of operation;
less than 0.2% of people choose CPAP, MAD or operation.
- Snorers may give up the MAD treatment course since it needs several months
for adaptation.
- Many medical doctors think the effect of surgery is still debatable)
