Emma is joined by Larry Shaw, the inventor of the Knightsbridge Dual Band Chin Strap.
Together they discuss:
* Larry's own personal journey with snoring and sleep apnea;
* How his symptoms of increased daytime sleepiness mounted gradually over time;
* Larry's reluctance to go to a doctor about his sleep apnea and his approach of trying to figure it out himself;
* The impact of sleep problems on his relationships;
* Trying chinstraps on the market to keep his mouth closed at night;
* Coming up with a better design for the Knightsbridge Dual Band Chin Strap to keep the mouth closed without undue pressure being placed on the TMJ;
