Evidence-based evaluation by medical professionals
"A highly effective, metal-free custom oral appliance that prioritizes tongue space and nasal breathing through its included mouth shield accessory."
The flexTAP represents a significant evolution in the Thornton Adjustable Positioner (TAP) family, moving toward a purely metal-free design to improve patient comfort and biocompatibility. As a clinician-managed custom oral appliance, it provides a substantial 14mm range of patient adjustability, allowing for significant mandibular advancement to maintain airway patency. The device is distinguished by its 'occlusal-less' maxillary coverage, which is specifically engineered to provide more tongue space than traditional TAP devices, addressing a common complaint of intraoral restriction. A unique feature of the flexTAP system is the standard inclusion of a 'Mouth Shield' nasal breathing trainer, which encourages patients to transition from oral to more efficient nasal breathing during sleep. Clinically, it is recognized for its durability and is PDAC-verified for Medicare reimbursement under code E0486, making it a robust medical-grade option for treating chronic snoring and mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea.
