Nasal dilator apparatus

Abstract

A removable nasal dilator device is configured and dimensioned for insertion into the nose to improve quality of breathing. The device may increase air flow through the nasal passage to lungs by helping maintain the nasal wall integrity, thus preventing the nasal passage from collapsing. It may also provide relief from snoring caused by mouth breathing when nasal passages are blocked. The nasal dilator apparatus is configured to fit over the bridge of the nose, curve over the edge of the nose, and fit comfortably inside the nasal passage. Loops, paddles or other terminal members on either end of the device maintain gentle outward pressure against the inside of the nasal wall to keep the nasal passage open.
