Short video monologue by Dr. Charles Mok explaining realistic expectations for snoring reduction: typical snoring loudness ~40 dB; treatments may reduce the minutes spent snoring (e.g., a 70% reduction) rather than peak loudness; complete elimination every night may be impractical. The referenced treatment effect lasts about two to three years and may require periodic check-ins or a one-time tune-up treatment via an app if snoring returns.

Can you get rid of snoring? Well, here's the thing. If you snore, let's say somebody sleeps eight hours a night and they sleep, they snore for six hours at a certain level, about 40 decibels. And that's common snoring loudness. If you reduce it by 70%, you're still snoring at the same loudness, but you'll snore much less minutes in the night. And it might not be practical for everybody to expect to get rid of snoring entirely every night, but you should be all expecting it markedly reduced. And the loudness won't go down. Just the number of minutes a night you snore will be reduced. Truant pie lasts two to three years, so it might be something you keep the app on hand and check it every year or so. If it starts creeping back up, you might want to do a tune up by just doing one additional treatment.
