# Event Details - **Event Name**: Making Anti-snoring Devices - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 16 Oct, 2026 at 09:00 am – Fri, 16 Oct, 2026 at 05:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Making Anti Snoring Devices presented by Giles Bradley A One Day Hands-on course suitable for CDTS & Dental Technicans With 6 Hours enhanced CPD Up to 40% of the population snore, potentially disrupting the sleep of themselves and their partners. A proportion of them will suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) which requires medical intervention if severe. Suitably trained GDPs, working in conjunction with properly accredited technicians can successfully treat most patients. However, it is ethically, clinically and legally necessary to first identify patients at risk of OSA and appropriately refer them before treatment. With increasing efforts being made to train dentists to screen, refer and treat patients with snoring conditions, there is a corresponding need for appropriately trained and accredited technicians and clinical dental technicians to construct these devices.

He has over 30 years’ experience of fabricating thermoformed appliances, with a particular focus on the Silensor-sl anti-snoring device for the past 20 years. Working with consultant dentists with a special interest in Dental Sleep Medicine, he is an integral part of the team at a Teaching Hospital which seeks to positively impact the quality of life of some of the hardest to treat patients Giles has committed himself for many years to improving his knowledge and developing new skills and techniques, prioritising continued education in both the UK and Europe.
