DENTAL INTRAORAL DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
A dental intraoral device that is worn within an oral cavity, the dental intraoral device comprising a resin base portion that follows a shape of the oral cavity. At least a part of the base portion is formed into a mesh shape. The part of the base portion is preferably formed by approximately regularly arranging unit regions having holes.
DEVICE FOR PREVENTING SLEEP APNEA AND SNORING
A device for preventing sleep apnea and snoring, which is shaped like a semi-rigid whip. This whip has a curve that goes according to the anatomy of the base of the nasal cavity. At the wavy end of the whip is a design in the shape of the letter M that keeps the device fixed to the nostrils and, in turn, helps expand wing and triangular cartilages.

System and method for delivering a therapy and sensing a biological activity in the mouth
Methods, devices, and systems are disclosed for controlled delivery of a therapy, such as a stimulant, to a mouth of a subject via an oral device positioned in a secured configuration in the mouth. At least one of a tongue position stimulator (TST) and tongue position sensor (TSE) is provided, according to certain aspects. According to another aspect, a stimulus is delivered to the mouth and/or tongue via a mouthpiece secured to the subject's teeth. In another regard, a stimulus is delivered that generates a natural response to eliminate or reduce sleep disorders, such as for example at least one of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.

Assembly for treatment providing non-invasive controlled positioning and movement of a patient's jaw
An oral treatment assembly providing a plurality of medical treatments of a patient that are non-invasive and in particular, provides new methods for treating jaw related medical conditions of a patient through predetermined positioning and controlled or guided movement of a patient's mandible and therefore their mandibular condyles during use, wherein the assembly includes an upper and lower assembly each defining transition portions having a reverse cut angle that extends downward from the posterior forward to the anterior, and where each are configured to selectively engage to restrict the retrusion of the mandible relative to the maxilla and to position the mandible relative to the maxilla downward and in some embodiment slightly forward in a caregiver defined treatment position and having a caregiver defined treatment movement area thereabout. Since the reversed cut angle contains two vectors it also discourages involuntary dropping of the mandible relative to the maxilla.
Adjustable pillow
An adjustable orthopedic pillow includes a plurality of sections separated by dividers. Each section includes a head support fill chamber, a comfort layer fill chamber, a primary cervical support fill chamber, and a secondary cervical support fill chamber. The primary cervical support fill chamber can be positioned between at least a portion of the head support fill chamber and at least a portion of the comfort layer fill chamber and can an opening at a superior portion of the primary cervical support fill chamber. The secondary cervical support fill chamber can be positioned between at least a portion of the head support fill chamber and at least a portion of primary cervical support fill chamber and can include an opening at an inferior portion of the secondary cervical support fill chamber.

Method and system to facilitate the growth of desired bacteria in a human's mouth
A method to facilitate the growth of desired bacteria in a human's mouth by using a bioadhesive strip that has an encapsulated feature containing at least one bacteria that has one of a pathogenic or toxic element excised using a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR associated protein (Cas) system or a CRISPR from Prevotella and Francisella 1 (Cpf1) system, and in particular, using oral strips that adhere to surfaces in the oral cavity and that include at least one of xylitol, Lachnospira, Veillonella, Faecalibacterium and/or Rothia bacteria.
Lip sealing tape
A lip sealing tape for preventing a user's mouth from opening in daily life and during sleep is proposed. The lip sealing tape adds a mouth-closing vector to assist a vector that displaces a position of a user's tongue forward and upward, thereby forming a closed vector system of muscles of the entire body to increase physical stability and induce nasal respiration (breathing through a user's nose) to gradually reduce oral respiration while promoting nasal respiration. The lip sealing tape is characterized by simply adding the mouth-closing vector to prevent opening of the user's upper and lower lips, by means of horizontal and vertical adhesive tape portions, thereby minimizing a contact area with a user's facial skin when worn and thus minimizing discomfort due to stuffiness while maximizing safety when worn.
