The Slide Nylon is now available

The nylon version of the Slide oral appliance is now available.  This is an addition to the Slide’s unique product line of soft-tissue friendly devices for sleep apnea and snoring.

Two Materials: Nylon and Acrylic

Both ideal for treating the majority of sleep apnea and snoring conditions

the Slide® Nylon

Extra strength and a slimmer profile are delivered with the type 12 nylon, Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), 3D printed version of the Slide. This is important for heavy bruxers, patients with smaller mouths, and those very sensitive to their appearance.
the Slide® Acrylic
The acrylic KeySplint Soft™ resin device is softer and can be relined. This is especially useful for patients having additional dental work done while treating their sleep apnea.

Dr. LeBlanc, the Slide inventor, is pleased to be able to add the Nylon version of the Slide to its product line of tissue-friendly oral sleep appliances for sleep apnea and snoring.
