Respire Medical, a U.S. based oral appliance manufacturer, is pleased to announce the Respire Blue Series as the most affordable and effective oral appliance on the market for the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea.

Respire Medical has developed an innovative oral device which is both comfortable and adjustable by the patients themselves. “Following many months of hard work I am pleased to announce the Respire Blue Series as the most affordable device available. The FDA is respected around the world and in due time that is where we expect to take Respire. Together we can make a real change in the industry by offering quality products at exceptional value enabling patient’s to receive the treatment they rightly deserve.” David Walton, cofounder of Respire Medical. Cocreator of the Respire device, Dr. Michael Gelb, is also thrilled to offer patients the Respire at a price they can afford. “I have been successfully using the Respire over the last year with follow up testing and am very pleased to see FDA approval for insurance pricing purposes.” Respire Medical is confident this appliance is going to change the face of sleep disorders treatment, as it’s unparalleled within the industry for its quality and value.

Positive points on the Respire Blue Series also include:

  • Comfort
  • Anterior opening
  • Easily adjusted
  • A great value ($199 + shipping)


Oral appliance therapy is a common treatment method for patients with sleep apnea. Dentists are filling classrooms across the country to learn how they can screen and treat OSA through oral appliance therapy. Dental continuing education courses, like those offered by Sleep Group Solutions are teaching dentists their role in snoring and sleep apnea.
