An anti-snoring device including detachably attachable upper and lower trays selectively fitting over a person's upper and lower teeth. The trays are formed of a rigid plastic outer shell and include an inner thermoplastic moldable portion. Tongues are integrally formed with the rigid outer shells and extend from each of the upper and lower trays forwardly from the central portions of the upper and lower trays. The tongues are selectively detachably attachable to one another in a plurality of positions and for shifting the lower tray and jaw slightly forward from its normal position. Depressions are formed in the lower and upper trays which align and form breathing openings between the upper and lower trays on each side of the trays central portions. The trays posterior portions terminate prior to the person's molars or at about the person's premolars.
