Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about using REMplenish
I need help learning to use my REMplenish product.
If you've recently purchased a REMplenish product and need help, please check out our REMplenish User Support page for instructional videos, FAQs, troubleshooting for common issues, and additional resources.
Does REMplenish work for everyone?
Everyone can benefit from improved sleep and a healthier airway. Each person’s snoring or myofunctional needs are different. Some will see improvement more quickly than others; most will notice a change in 4-6 weeks of regular use drinking 25-60 oz of water daily. Consistent use is most likely to produce results. 93% of participants in our 2020 usability study reported improvements in snoring and 34% reported reduced daytime tiredness.
REMplenish focuses on reducing the vibration associated with snoring caused by weak muscles of the tongue and throat. It does not address nasal snoring (plugged nostrils resulting in a high-pitched snore).
Do I need to keep using REMplenish after I achieve the results I want?
Yes, if you stop using the device, there may be a gradual loss of improvements made. To maintain strength, continue using the REMplenish Myo-Nozzle at least twice a week or simply consider this to be part of how you drink water daily. Adjust use based on your individual needs.
Can REMplenish be used by children?
Yes, our new REMplenish Jr products are designed for children ages 3-9! You can order our REMplenish Jr™ Myo-Nozzle Plastic Bottle Kit (BPA-free) or a separate REMplenish Jr™ Myo-Nozzle which can be attached to any reusable straw 8-10mm in diameter (not included).
If the child is over 9 years old: Both the child "REMplenish Jr" and adult "REMplenish" Myo-Nozzles work the same, so it's sometimes a best estimate or preference for which to order. If your child is over 9 years old but is petite or has a small mouth, the Jr would still be a good choice. Otherwise, they can typically use the adult REMplenish products without problem. Both options work the same so both would provide benefit when used.
Should a 10+ year-old child use a REMplenish Jr or an adult REMplenish product?
The REMplenish Jr Myo-Nozzle is right sized for most children between the ages 3-9 years but can include older children or petite adults who may have a high or more narrow upper palate, a tongue restriction (tie) or have difficulty using the adult size. The mechanism of the REMplenish Jr and the adult REMplenish Myo-Nozzles are exactly the same so both sizes will typically work as intended.
How does REMplenish help prevent snoring?
The REMplenish Myo-Nozzle provides exercise which strengthens and tightens the base of the tongue which may reduce the risk of vibration and collapsibility of the airway related to snoring. In a 2020 REMplenish usability study, 93% of snorers reported a reduction in snoring, and 34% said they were more awake during the day. REMastered Sleep offers a risk-free 60-day moneyback guarantee. Most people notice changes after 1 month of use while others may notice improvement in just 1-2 weeks. Give REMplenish a try risk free for the first 60 days!
How long does the therapy take before snoring is reduced?
Most users notice an improvement in about one month of regular REMplenish use drinking 25-60 oz of water at least 5 days a week. Some may notice improvement more quickly while others may take longer. Consistent daily use is the best predicter of results. Improvement will level off over time and plateau at around 6 months of use. Ongoing weekly use of REMplenish will help maintain results attained.
Can REMplenish help with sleep apnea?
The REMplenish Myo-Nozzle is currently being used in a study at the Mayo Clinic for mild to moderate sleep apnea.Studies have shown myofunctional therapy/upper airway exercise is effective at helping with Obstructive Sleep Apnea. The REMplenish Myo-Nozzle is designed to make these exercises easy by strengthening the back of the tongue, which may reduce the risk of snoring and airway collapsibility. REMplenish is not a replacement for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea with a medical professional. We offer a 60-day risk-free money back guarantee allowing you to try it and see if it adds benefit to your other sleep apnea treatments!
Can REMplenish help with tongue thrust issues?
We recommend that you consult with a myofunctional therapist to address your tongue thrust issue. Many myofunctional therapists use REMplenish to assist with the correction of a tongue thrust and implement REMplenish at an appropriate time in therapy based on your individual needs. Myofunctional therapists have additional treatments and therapies to correct this issue.
Can REMplenish be used by someone with dysphagia?
The REMplenish Myo-Nozzle was designed and tested for IDDSI level 0 (thin) liquids. The myo-nozzle was also designed to strengthen the tongue and oropharynx to address snoring and sleep disturbances, not to address an oral or pharyngeal phase dysphagia in someone with penetration or aspiration symptoms. Your treating Speech Language Pathologist may trial using the nozzle when they have determined that you or your child is safe to swallow thin liquids. It is not recommended or intended to be used before a person can safely swallow thin liquids without assistance.
Which is the easiest product to use for people with disabilities/special needs?
This will depend upon your specific needs.
The REMplenish™ Myo-Nozzle Plastic Bottle Kit has the nozzle attached to the lid of the bottle and a small flip-top lid that can cover the nozzle. The lid of the bottle unscrews for refilling. The bottle weighs under 0.4 pounds when empty and a little under 2.5 pounds when full.
The REMplenish™ Myo-Nozzle & Straw can be placed in any cup or tumbler you already have, like a normal reusable straw.
REMplenish Product Questions
What is REMplenish™?
REMplenish™ is a patented myofunctional therapy nozzle. Using REMplenish provides targeted tongue & throat exercises while you drink water. Exercising and strengthening those key muscles leads to reduced vibration associated with snoring, proper tongue posture, and better nasal breathing. All of this leads to a stronger and better functioning airway. Find supporting research here.
A healthier airway can allow for better breathing, reduced snoring, improved sleep, more energy, and many more benefits depending on the individual.
Can I use REMplenish to drink warm or hot water?
We recommend only cold or room temperature water. The REMplenish therapy Myo-Nozzle changes your swallow pattern; to avoid burning your throat DO NOT use with hot water.
Can I drink liquids other than water with REMplenish?
We recommend drinking only water with REMplenish, as sugars from other drinks will allow more bacterial growth and may be difficult to clean out of the myo-nozzle.
