PEEP Guard sleep apnoea device with arrows showing air flowing through it
Devices and Efficacy

Four levels. Each with its own evidence and indication.

All four are custom-made from a digital scan or impression of your own teeth, fitted and adjusted by a dentist. What changes between them is the technology inside the appliance and how closely the result is measured.

  • The iHeart Sleep Basic appliance: upper and lower plates joined by an adjustable connector.
    Mandibular advancement only

    iHeart Sleep Basic

    Indicated forSnoring and mild to moderate sleep apnoea, where jaw position is the main driver.

    Holds your lower jaw forward during sleep to keep the airway open. The same class of appliance most sleep dentists supply, made to the same standard.

    • Custom mandibular advancement device
    • No air channel, no PEEP Shield valve
    • 1 follow-up consultation included
  • PEEP Guard seen from above, showing the iACT integrated air channel through the front of the appliance.

    PEEP Guard

    Indicated forWhere jaw advancement alone has not been enough — and for people who breathe through the mouth at night, or cannot breathe freely through the nose.

    Adds iACT™ — an air channel built through the body of the appliance, stabilising the tongue as well as allowing air to continue to flow in the presence of nasal obstruction and soft palate collapse.

    • Custom mandibular advancement device
    • + iACT™ integrated air channel
    • 2 follow-up consultations included

    +20% reduction

    in the breathing events still remaining after mandibular advancement, measured in people a standard device had not helped.¹

    Similar results with a blocked nose

    In a study of an appliance with a built-in airway, the fall in breathing events was much the same in the 17 of 29 participants who reported nasal obstruction as in those who did not.³

  • Recommended
    The PEEP Shield one-way valve, shown on its own.
    The PEEP Shield valve

    PEEP Guard Essential

    Indicated forModerate to severe sleep apnoea, where pressure is needed as well as jaw position.

    Adds PEEP Shield™ — a one-way valve that uses your own breathing out to generate pressure inside the airway, which is the principle CPAP uses mechanically.

    • Custom mandibular advancement device
    • + iACT™ integrated air channel
    • + PEEP Shield™ valve
    • 3 follow-up consultations included

    +53% reduction

    in the events still remaining — 12.6 down to 5.9 an hour — when the valve was added to an appliance that already had the air channel.²

  • PEEP Guard assembled on dental models, seen from the front.
    The same appliance, measured

    PEEP Guard Complete

    Indicated forWhere the result has to be measured — severe disease, occupational requirements, or a previous treatment failure.

    The same appliance as Essential, with the treatment measured rather than assumed: how much you wear it, and what your oxygen levels do, recorded before and after the appliance is optimised.

    • Custom mandibular advancement device
    • + iACT™ integrated air channel
    • + PEEP Shield™ valve
    • + monitored optimisation — compliance recording and overnight oximetry, before and after
    • Unlimited follow-up consultations
