Roncaid
Most devices in this category work by sealing the mouth shut. Roncaid doesn't. It's a strip of flexible kinesiology tape that performs external hyoid suspension — drawing the suprahyoid musculature forward so the lower oropharynx widens behind it. The effect is immediate enough that you can feel it while awake.
Your mouth stays free to open. Nothing is sealed. I designed it, and I've verified what it does in my own patients, in my own practice.
Hypoallergenic, latex-free, breathable kinesiology tape. Seven pre-cut strips — one full week per pack.
Roncaid is not a treatment for sleep apnea. If you gasp, choke, or stop breathing during sleep, talk to your doctor.
Honest answers. Truthful claims.
I'm Dr. Stramiello, a Board-Certified Ear, Nose, and Throat Surgeon.
Almost everything people find when they search for ear, nose, and throat advice is written to sell them something.
I created Oto Anthro to help people find the truth about what is helpful and what is harmful when it comes to ENT home care. That means explaining what the evidence actually shows, being clear about what a product can and can't do, and saying plainly when the right answer is to go see someone rather than buy anything at all.
Our communication is primary, and our products come second. They exist because they are safe, they are effective, and they can help many people. Once you've been given an honest answer, the next step is finding a product you can trust, and we hope to provide both.
We are all anthropologists by the very practice of our everyday social interactions. Let me share my expertise with you.
Welcome to Otolaryngological Anthropology.
