ABSTRACT:
A sleep aid device comprises a mouthpiece assembly with bit elements extending therefrom. An air assembly extends from the mouthpiece assembly and includes a humidification chamber therein. The humidification chamber comprises a plurality of cones therein for collecting moisture thereon and transfer to air streams passing therethrough. The humidified air diminishes parchment of the lips and throat. The bit elements preclude mouth closure during sleep so as to preclude the sensation of suffocation experienced upon mouth closure and also allows for user swallowing without the resulting discomfort to damaged nasal passages.
