Russ, over long periods of time, PureSleep can cause very slow tooth movement that's normally benign and you can easily stop it any time by simply discontinuing use . However this movement generally pulls the upper front teeth inward and together, countering the normal flaring of the upper front teeth that happens with aging. Therefore using your PureSleep more would probably help -- not exacerbate -- this problem. PureSleep works by holding the jaw forward of its normal position, thereby pulling the associated soft tissue forward, away from the back of the upper airway. This opens the upper airway, allowing more unobstructed breathing. While PureSleep was the first such device cleared by the FDA to be sold directly to consumers, other similar devices have been available from dentists for over twenty years. All such devices hold the jaw forward by “gripping” the teeth, so some modest pressure on the teeth is unavoidable. Consequently all such products have the potential to cause the user’s teeth to slowly move over time. However because these changes are very gradual, it’s easy to simply discontinue use at any time if this movement because objectionable. Any such movement will immediately stop and will usually even reverse. However the direction of this tooth movement is exactly opposite of what would be needed for a gap to open in your upper front teeth as the pressure that's being applied to those teeth tends to pull them inward and backward. In contrast, part of the normal aging process involves people's upper front teeth flaring outward. So actually, the more you use your PureSleep, the more you can slow that natural aging process. You might even be able to stop it.
