MOUTH-OPENING TRAINING DEVICE HAVING WATER-FILLED BAG
A mouth-opening training device includes a water-filled bag having a zigzag edge or a sawtooth edge. By increasing or decreasing the amount of water located inside the water-filled bag to alter the total thickness of the water-filled bag, said device can accommodate different thickness of occlusion of teeth of a patient. Said device can make a further improvement on layers of flavor in occlusion of the teeth. Said device can further include a plurality of pivotable plate-shaped objects connected or coupled to the water-filled bag. The plate-shaped objects can provide different thickness combinations and further meet the user demands on thickness of occlusion of the teeth.
MOUTHPIECE
The mouthpiece includes an enhanced mouthpiece, a data sensor, and a personal data device. The data sensor collects data regarding the bite force, the number of bites and the duration of each bite. The data sensor wirelessly transfers the collected data to a personal data device.
IMPLEMENT FOR TRAINING FACIAL MUSCLE
A facial muscle training too has weight portions provided at the ends of left and right arms. A orally held portion, which is held by the lips, is provided between the arms. The arms vibrate in resonance when the orally held portion is vibrated in the vertical direction at a frequency of less than 6.50 hertz. Accordingly, the weight of the weight portions acts as load on the orally held portion and a facial muscle training effect is achieved.
Oropharyngeal Exercise Devices, Systems, And Methods
The various devices and systems herein include oropharyngeal exercise devices having a pump bulb with a bulb body having a flow restriction structure with a restricted configuration in which the flow restriction structure is configured to restrict the flow of fluid through the lumen such that the user must apply a force to increase the flow of the fluid. Other devices include containers and/or lids thereof with the bulbs attached to or integrated therein.
Tongue strengthening device
Disclosed is a tongue strengthening device that includes a handle on one end and a bulb structure on the other end. The bulb is resiliently flexible, and enables a user to exercise their tongue by repeatedly compressing and releasing the bulb. Provided is a system or kit that includes multiple tongue strengthening devices having different compression specifications that allow a patient to graduate to devices which are harder to compress as the patient gains tongue strength.
FACIAL MUSCLE EXERCISING DEVICE AND METHODS OF USING SAME
Exercising methods using an exercising device to strengthen, tighten and tone midface, lower face, orofacial, oropharyngeal including the tongue and floor of mouth muscles for both aesthetic and rehabilitative therapeutic practices is disclosed. The exercising device having an angular tubular opening shaped body member of a primary triangular configuration. The shaped body defines a central opening with equal, compressible, and bendable body members there about for designated placement to perform isometric and isotonic muscle resistance training for a variety of facial and tongue exercises. And methodology with universal placement under the lower lip, upper lip, both lips, unilateral or bilateral cheeks, in and around the outer region of the mouth, inside the oral cavity for hard palate, surface of the tongue and floor of mouth engagement.
Oral muscle training
A device (100) for training oral muscle tone, the device (100) includes a mouthpiece (103) having a first and second arm (131) diverging away from one another and each carrying at least one electrode means (132a, 132b, 133a, 133b), at least one of the at least one electrode means protruding proud of adjacent portions of the arms (131), electrical circuitry operatively connected to the electrode means (132a, 132b, 133a, 133b), at least one of the at least one electrode means comprising an electrically conductive polymeric or plastics material.
Oro-facial exerciser
An oro-facial exerciser apparatus for exercising and training the muscles of the lips and cheeks of a user's face, utilizes a pair of legs that are pivotally connected together to pivot between a substantially closed together state and a splayed apart state. The legs each have a proximal end proximate the pivot and a distal end remote from the pivot having a mouth mounting formation to mount the distal end to a respective opposing location of the user's mouth and the exerciser further has a resilient biasing means between the legs to bias them towards a splayed state and thereby provide a resistance force against which the user's lips and/or cheeks press in use for exercising and training the muscles. The resilient biasing means are demountably mounted on the legs, enabling them to be replaced with an alternative biasing means for altering the resistance.
Facial muscle exercising device and methods of using same
Exercising methods using an exercising device to strengthen, tighten and tone midface, lower face, orofacial, oropharyngeal including the tongue and floor of mouth muscles for both aesthetic and rehabilitative therapeutic practices is disclosed. The exercising device having an angular tubular opening shaped body member of a primary triangular configuration. The shaped body defines a central opening with equal, compressible, and bendable body members there about for designated placement to perform isometric and isotonic muscle resistance training for a variety of facial and tongue exercises. And methodology with universal placement under the lower lip, upper lip, both lips, unilateral or bilateral cheeks, in and around the outer region of the mouth, inside the oral cavity for hard palate, surface of the tongue and floor of mouth engagement.
BIFURCATED FACIAL MUSCLE EXERCISING DEVICE AND METHODS OF USING SAME
Exercising methods using an exercising device to strengthen, tighten and tone midface, lower face, orofacial, oropharyngeal including the tongue and floor of mouth muscles for both aesthetic and rehabilitative therapeutic practices is disclosed. A dual facial exercising device having a pair of triangular tubular shaped body members of a primary triangular configuration joined together at their respective apexes. The combined triangular shaped body defines central openings with equal, compressible, and bendable body members there about for designated placement to perform isometric and isotonic muscle resistance training for a variety of facial and tongue exercises. An exercise methodology with universal placement under the lower lip, upper lip, both lips, unilateral or bilateral cheeks, in and around the outer region of the mouth, inside the oral cavity for hard palate, surface of the tongue and floor of mouth engagement.
