Some 45 percent of normal adults snore at least occasionally, and 2S percent are habitual snorers. Problem snoring is more frequent in males and overweight persons, and it usually grows worse with age. More than 300 devices are registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as cures for snoring. Some are variations on the old idea of sewing a tennis ball on the pajama back - to force the snorer to sleep on his side. (Snoring is often worse when the person sleeps on his back.) Chin and head straps, neck collars, and devices inserted into the mouth are usually disappointing as snoring cures. Many electrical devices have been designed to produce painful or unpleasant stimuli when the patient snores. The presumption was that a person could be trained or conditioned to snore. Unfortunately, snoring is not under the person’s control whatsoever, and if these devices work it is probably because they keep the snorer awake. What Causes Snoring? The noisy sounds of snoring occur when there is an obstruction to the free flow of air through the ' passages at the back of the mouth and nose. This is the collapsible part of the airway where the tongue and upper throat meet the soft palate and uvula (the fleshy structure that dangles from the roof of the mouth back into the throat). When these structures strike against each other and vibrate during breathing, that is snoring. Persons who snore have at least one of the following problems: 1. Poor muscle tone (lack of tightness) in the muscles of the tongue and throat. Flabby muscles

SNORING

allow the tongue to fall backwards into the airway or allow the throat muscles to be drawn in from the sides into the airway. This occurs when the person’s muscular control is too relaxed from alcohol or from drugs which cause sleepiness. It also happens in some persons when they relax in the deep-sleep stages. 2. Excessive bulkiness of tissue of the throat. Large tonsils and adenoids, for example, commonly cause snoring in children. Overweight persons also have bulky neck tissues. Cysts or tumors could also be present, but they arc rare. 3. Excessive length of the soft palate and uvula. A long palate may narrow the opening from the nose into the throat As it dangles in the airway, it acts as a flutter valve during relaxed breathing, and contributes to the noise of snoring. A long uvula makes matters even worse. 4. Obstructed nasal airways. When a person has a stuffy or blocked-up nose he must pull hard to inhale air through it This creates an exaggerated vacuum in his throat in the collapsible part of the airway, and it pulls together the floppy tissues of the throat. So snoring occurs even in persons who would not snore if they could breathe through the nose properly. This explains why some people snore only during the hay fever season, or when they have a cold or sinus infection. Also, deformities of the nose or nasal septum frequently cause such obstruction. “Deviated septum#’ is a common term for a deformity inside the nose in the wall that separates one nostril from the other.
