Sleep Apnea Alternative: dental device

i've had sleep apnea for a good 10 years. Only recently did I start using a dental device. It's an alternative to the CPAP machine. My question is, do any drivers on here use it? I can post a picture of the retainer. Also, my cat does not wake me up whenever I use this device because I'm not bothering him and he does not need to purr me awake. I know I sound crazy, but my cat can tell the difference between me using a CPAP alternative and me not using it.

 

funny you should mention that because I had some trauma meaning my teeth were not aligned properly and this dental device helped me out in the teeth aligning department. I never knew anything about the trauma to muscles. I appreciate the information.
