Snore-B-Gone Review
By: Rob MillerUpdate (10-14-2018): We had one of our site visitors test out Snore B Gone to see if it really works. Click Here
to read his full review.
The statistics are staggering. . .
Nearly 40 million adults suffer from chronic snoring in America alone. For some it has reached a fever-pitch, as snoring causes everything from poor sleep quality, to relationship problems, and even serious health issues like heart disease. Source
So when I recently came across an advertisement for a product called Snore-B-Gone that promises to eliminate snoring immediately, I couldn’t help but be curious. So I took a closer look.
Now, I typically tune out ads, but this one had some substance to it. And I know that many of my readers suffer from snoring, so I wanted to share an in-depth review of the Snore-B-Gone snore guard.
Alright, the ad starts with a video clip that NBC Nightly News produced (see screenshot above). They found a man who snored so much that he was constantly tired throughout the day, he was experiencing mental and physical problems, and it got so bad that his wife kicked him out of the bedroom for it.
This must happen A LOT more than couples want to admit.
The guy tried three different snoring treatments. A snoring chin strap, a snoring pillow, and *supposedly*, the Snore-B-Gone mouth guard. They filmed him during his sleep, trying each of these products.
Here’s what they found. . .
The sleep pillow just flat out didn’t work, and the chin strap had spotty results.
But when he allegedly tried Snore-B-Gone, his sleep was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
But wait. . . I say “allegedly” because the guy never actually tried Snore-B-Gone.
In fact, Snore-B-Gone wasn’t even one of the featured products on the NBC piece. NOPE! The scammers at Snore-B-Gone just overlaid a picture of their product onto the original video!
Here’s the REAL clip. . .
Their ad then goes into another man’s testimonial, who was headed down the dreaded CPAP road when he found Snore-B-Gone.
To be honest, I don’t know if it’s a legit testimonial, as it sounds a bit scripted. I mean, who speaks in bullet points? Here’s what ‘David Smith’ says. . .
“I found out that snoring isn’t just a little problem, it’s a big health concern. Snoring is an indicator of OSA (Obstructed Sleep Apnea), which leads to all manner of health problems, like:
- Acid reflux
- Frequent nighttime urination
- Memory loss
- Stroke
- Depression
- Diabetes
- Heart attack
Alright Mr. David Smith, everything you say is true, so we’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.
Needless to say, Snore-B-Gone was the miracle answer that fixed everyone’s snoring problems. Of course it did, as it was their ad!
Now, I won’t disqualify a potentially wonderful product simply because of scammy advertising. It’s not my style. Instead I want to get into the nitty-gritty mechanics and design of Snore-B-Gone to see if it works, and how it works, to stop snoring in its tracks.
But first. . .
1. What is Snore B Gone?
At its most basic level, Snore B Gone is a light-weight mouth piece that supports the jaw and keeps the airway open and unrestricted throughout the night. Thus, no more snoring.
The product’s website, Snore B Gone.com, does a pretty good job of selling the benefits of the device.
The website puts a ton of emphasis on the science behind the product, and how it’s medically proven to stop you from snoring and improve your sleep.
They even go so far as to say it’s “The #1 Doctor Recommended Anti-Snoring System.” BUT. . . they don’t go out of their way to share these so-called clinical or scientific studies.
I had to really dig around to find the study they referenced, and even when I found it (tucked away at the very bottom of the website), I’m pretty sure the study was simply about the effectiveness of snore guards in general. Makes you wonder.
2. How does Snore B Gone Work?
According to the website, the Snore B Gone mouth piece “puts the lower jaw in an upward/forward position.” This position supposedly increases the “three-dimensional space in the airway,” which slows the air velocity and the soft-tissue vibration. Seems legit.
In other words, it clears your blow-hole so that you can finally sleep like a lamb.
They have a nifty illustration on their site of what this looks like in action. . .
Snore B Gone FAQs
3. Does it really work to eliminate snoring?
I can’t say definitively if it works or not.
However, from what I gather from the sheer mechanics of the device, and the results that the guy experienced on the NBC Nightly News video clip (yeah, right!), I would venture to say maybe it’s worth a try.
As you’ll see, I come across another similar product with essentially the same design, and it gets rave reviews. So I can imagine Snore B Gone really does work to eliminate snoring.
4. Does Snore B Gone help with sleep apnea?
Well, snoring does point to other more serious sleep disorders, like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
And according to WebMD, the causes of sleep apnea are exactly what Sleep-B-Gone looks to correct, a blocked airway. . .
“In adults, the most common cause of obstructive sleep apnea is excess weight and obesity, which is associated with soft tissue of the mouth and throat. During sleep, when throat and tongue muscles are more relaxed, this soft tissue can cause the airway to become blocked.” Source
Obviously, it’s best to treat the source of the problem, rather than simply treating the symptoms. So if your snoring (and your sleep apnea) is caused by obesity, or perhaps smoking, then you should consider trying to lose weight by eating healthy and exercising.
And quit smoking while you’re at it.
In the meantime, it does seem like Snore B Gone could help with sleep apnea. Now I wouldn’t set off for the nearest pawn store looking to get rid of your CPAP machine, as Snore B Gone is probably not a good substitute.

5. What else does Snore B Gone help with?
When you’re losing sleep or having your sleep disrupted by chronic snoring, you’ll likely experience a range of symptoms. Some of these symptoms are more serious than others. But all of them can be corrected if only you could stop snoring.
The Snore B Gone website promises to. . .
6. What is Snore B Gone made of?
Unfortunately, the official website doesn’t disclose any information about what materials the product is made of.

His review follows below:
I have been searching for a product to help with my snoring and decided to give Snore B Gone a try. I was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea a little over 10 years ago. Ever since then I have been sleeping with a cpap. The cpap works great, but there have been times that I have gone on trips and forgotten it at home and wished I had some product to help me sleep because I do not sleep without my cpap. I have seen over stop snoring devices in the past and figured I would give Snore B Gone a try.
Initial thoughts: Snore B Gone looks like a mouth-guard.
One of the things I did notice is that there is a gap between the top and bottom rows of teeth to help you breathe if you sleep with your mouth open.
The instructions are not good. Example:
Step 1) Gather two small containers. Fill one with hot water and one with cold water.
Step 2) Place entire mouthpiece into one container and add hot water until the mouthpiece is submerged (DO NOT BOIL MOUTHPIECE IN POT).
What?! You never say to boil water.
You tell me to fill 2 containers with different temperature water and then tell me to put the hot water over the mouthpiece, so which is it?!
Luckily, my wife has some experience with mouth-guards and she told me to boil water first, then pour the boiling water over the mouth-guard.
That worked.
Other then the instructions being less then stellar, the product looked great. It comes in a hard-plastic case and the mouth-guard itself is plastic wrapped.
Now for the real test, sleeping with the mouth-guard.
I have slept with Snore B Gone for 4 nights. The first 2 nights, I slept for about 3 hours before waking up. Wasn’t sure if the device wasn’t working or if I was just in my head. I asked my wife if she hear me snoring at all and she said she did not.
On the third night, my wife did wake me up and told me I was snoring. When I asked her about it the next day she told me it was just a light snore. Nothing like what I used to do. On the fourth night I slept well for several hours before waking up. I do have a sleep tracker that I wear, and it doesn’t show any large amounts of awake time or movement while I was wearing the Snore B Gone vs. the cpap.
The only issue I seemed to have is that the longer I would wear the device, the more it seemed to hurt my bottom row of teeth. Not a huge deterrent if the options are sleep or no sleep.
In Conclusion: I feel that the Snore B Gone would be beneficial to try if you are having problems snoring. Obviously if you have a medical condition like sleep apnea, this may not fix the problem, but it definitely helped me sleep. I will still use my cpap the majority of the time, but if I ever lose power I will be glad that I have the Snore B Gone.
8. Snore B Gone Reviews
When you’re shelling out money for a product that promises to give you better sleep, you want to be sure it works. One way of knowing if it’ll work for you is finding out if it works for other people. That’s why reviews and testimonials are so important. . . but they have to be real.
I cannot say the Snore B Gone reviews I came across are 100% legitimate. Since the product is not sold on third-party sites like Amazon.com or Walmart.com, we don’t have access to all the juicy reviews.
Of course, you’ve got the reviews from the Snore B Gone website. . . but even if they are real, why would they share anything other than glowing reviews?
Then I went searching for video reviews, to see if people were getting real results from the product. Here’s what I found. . .
Yup, it’s obviously a video made by Snore B Gone, as it comes from the product’s own YouTube channel.
But the crazy thing is that the supposed “reviewer” wasn’t even talking about the Snore B Gone device. Instead, he was talking about something called ‘Sleep Solutions Bogo’, whatever that is.
It gets even weirder. . .
There are several of these same exact videos on YouTube. Each one has a different person introducing and leading into the same video review over and over:
Alright, alright. It’s clear that the company is trying some interesting (and rather shady) tactics to score web traffic. And I’m left high and dry looking for actual reviews from actual people.
9. Is Snore B Gone the best snore guard?
I wanted to compare Snore B Gone against one of the best-selling and highest reviewed snore guards on the market. After all, there are A TON of choices out there, so which one is right for you?
The one product I came across that really caught my interest was the P&J Health Snore Stopper Mouth Piece. The price tag is a very reasonable $26.95, and it can be found on Amazon.com with some pretty impressive reviews.
The P&J snore guard works the same way that Snore-B-Gone does, but it also addresses the problem of teeth grinding at night, known as bruxism. And they offer a 30-day 100% money-back guarantee if you’re not satisfied with the results.
10. Where can I buy Snore B Gone?
Right now, you can only buy the product on the official website, Snore-B-Gone.com. And you can’t simply select to purchase the device, you first have to give your personal shipping information, along with phone number and email to even get access to the order page. This is becoming pretty standard though.
11. Snore B Gone Price
It looks like you can finally say goodbye to snoring for a total of $129.94. And right now they’re offering a ‘buy one get one free’ deal. So technically you’re spending only $64.97 per snore guard. Still pretty dang expensive.
12. Is there a guarantee?
Yep. There is a 100% money-back guarantee on Snore B Gone. They don’t say anything about the time-frame, so I’m assuming they’ll grant it into perpetuity (forever).
For some strange reason, they don’t actually have the guarantee written anywhere on the main sales-page/website. You don’t even learn about it until you get through to the order page. They should really fix this, because guarantees are a big deal, and they eliminate the buyer’s risk.
13. Recommendation
Look, snoring is a serious problem. It really can affect your relationships, your sleep, and even your health.
And men especially have to watch out for the consequences of poor sleep. It’ll cause everything from testosterone levels to decrease, to heart disease and even heart attack.
So I wanted to dig deep into the Snore B Gone snore guard to see if it could be the solution that SO many people so desperately need. What I found was a sleek website, but not much of anything to really back it up. . . leaving me with some unanswered questions.
I’m hoping to soon find other customer reviews of the product, so I can get a good, well-rounded understanding of its strengths and weaknesses.
As for the price, it’s a bit steep at $129.94 for two snore guards.
But then again they do offer a money-back guarantee, so I suppose maybe there’s not much to lose and a great nights’ sleep to gain.

We actually already have someone testing it out, sorry!
Insurance will cover between $500 to $1800 but exact coverage us not determined until after device is made and fitted to patient. What do you reccomend?
You might want to give Snore B Gone, or even ZQuiet, a try first. They’re a fraction of the cost, and they might work just as well as (or even better) the device you mentioned.
Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to research Z Quiet, so I can’t draw any comparisons.
Based on a quick look, the devices look very similar, so I would imagine they work comparably.
Zippa was second, and finally Snore RX. The problem I have had with both the Snore RX, and the Zippa is that they can scratch my tongue, leaving it sore in the morning.
They also tend to loosen up too much allowing my teeth to slide out of the guard and not putting my jaw properly forward. These are boil and bite devices that mold to your teeth after the plastic is softened in boiling water.
These devices also broke down after about 6 months. The Zippa was stronger to my surprise, but the tongue strap broke after about 4 months.
I could still use the Zippa after the strap broke, but I am back to looking for something a little bit better. The device from my sleep dentist broke after about 15 months, but I had relocated, and a new sleep dentist has refused to treat me unless I get a 4 thousand dollar test for sleep apnea.
This is really crazy politics based on a Texas state law that I hope I can get overturned. Until then, it is either Zippa, or a brand I have not tried yet.
Thanks for your input. Let me know what you try next and how it works.
Snore b gone overlayed their product on the video and cut the parts where Zyppah is mentioned in the report.
Great catch, I totally missed that when I was doing my research! I’ll add in a blurb shortly, thanks again for pointing it out.
Sorry for the late reply. I tried sending them an email, but it said the address couldn’t be found.
If I were you, I would avoid Snore B Gone at all costs. They’re using very shady marketing techniques to sell their product, don’t respond to customer emails, and overall is just not giving me a good vibe.
I would recommend you go with a more reputable and proven product, like Snore RX or ZQuiet.
Plus Zyppah offers another side to their company called Sleep Certified which helps people with Sleep Apnea get treated.
