INTRODUCTION
Congratulations, you have taken the rst steps to
improve your sleep and well-being!
Your Healthcare Professional has chosen the
O2Vent Optima™ (Optima) specically for your
snoring and/or obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)
therapy. OSA is a condition where a suerer
experiences repetitive episodes of partial or
complete blockage of the upper-airway during sleep.
This is caused by obstructions of the nose, soft
palate and tongue.
The Optima is a removable oral appliance that is
tted in the mouth and is intended to reduce or
alleviate snoring and mild to moderate OSA. The
Optima is indicated for use during sleep to aid in the
treatment of these conditions. Intended for adult
patients 18 years or older. The Optima device is for
prescription use only.

HOW YOUR OPTIMA DEVICE WORKS
Provides a unique air channel
in case of nasal congestion
or diculties with breathing
through the nose.
Brings/pulls the lower jaw
forward (this opens the airway
and stabilises the tongue)
The air channel allows the
air to ow smoothly to the
back of the airway.

The Optima consists of the following parts:
• Upper tray (upper teeth)
• Lower tray (lower teeth)
• Connector bands
The upper and lower trays are connected to each other
by the connector bands and will be delivered assembled:
– The bands are used to move the lower jaw (i.e. adjust
the trays) forward or backward.
– In order to adjust the trays to your specic needs,
the bands come in dierent lengths to enable
titration adjustment. There are 9 length size options
ranging from 13-21mm.
– Your new Optima is delivered fully assembled with the
19mm connector band as the recommended starting
titration length for all new users*.
– The shorter the connector band, the further the lower
jaw is moved forward.
– After the initial use, your Healthcare Professional will
help you to nd the right length of connector bands to
receive the best therapy.
HOW YOUR OPTIMA DEVICE WORKS CONTINUED
* In some instances, your Healthcare Professional may recommend a
dierent starting length for your connector bands based on your
jaw anatomy.

The Optima trays should never be worn separately.
Always wear both trays (assembled with the
connector bands) when using the device.
