There are 2 ways I know of that can keep you open while you are asleep. One is the " bite block" which is a little rubber block they put between your upper and lower teeth so you can't bite down.
The other is a sort of "scissors" shaped metal device, (only not sharp) and can be opened to increase the space and keep you wide open.Health Question & Answer
