Anyone know how oral appliances stack up against CPAP as far as compliance goes?

I read that compliance is a lot higher but the jury is still out on how effective they are. Any one have more info on how well they work? I am sure most of us would rather deal with a mouth piece than xpap. I know I would.

I don't have any stats, but I've heard that many people don't make it past six months with oral appliances due to TMJ and jaw pain problems.

Oral appliances are about 20% effective. You have got to remember oral aps work only if your tounge is the only obstruction. Most people have multiple obstructions. They help.....but they do not cure. I've tested many of these devices.
