Abstract: A single arch dental device. The single arch dental device includes a dental trough, having a lingual surface, a facial surface, and an occlusal surface. The dental trough is molded to conform to a shape of a wearer's lower teeth. The facial surface of the dental trough has an anterior facial surface and a posterior facial surface. The posterior facial surface of the dental trough is contoured to receive a facial surface of the wearer's teeth. The lingual surface of the dental trough has an anterior lingual surface and a posterior lingual surface. The anterior lingual surface of the dental trough is contoured to receive the lingual surface of the wearer's teeth. A pocket is carved out of the posterior lingual surface of the dental trough and provides a surface into which an anterior and lateral border portion of the wearer's tongue rests.

Abstract: Provided is a soft flexible oral appliance having protuberances that mimic naturally occurring dental Tori. An upper, palatial appliance and a lower, mandibular appliance may be used in conjunction or separately to alleviate a variety of disorders, improve facial tone, and increase physical performance. The appliances are lightweight, thin, and do not prohibit normal speech patterns when in use. Small protuberances are strategically molded along key surfaces of each appliance to stimulate nerves in the tongue and affect forward protrusion. Forward positioning of the tongue dilates the airways of the throat improving breathing while the use is sleeping, playing sports, or talking. It also reduces bruxing or grinding of the teeth. A method is further provided, for adding protuberances to other types of oral appliances, thereby conferring some of the benefits listed above on appliances originally intended for other dental uses.

Abstract: A dental mouthpiece clenched between the teeth and used to alleviate numerous dental and medical conditions as well as increase a user's performance. The mouthpiece improves facial tone and provides relief of temporomandibular joint pain and associated grinding of the teeth. The mouthpiece is less visible than prior art devices, even when the wearer opens his/her mouth, and does not cause discomfort. Furthermore, the mouthpiece allows for substantially unaffected speech, by the strategic placement of protuberances, so that the user may keep the mouthpiece in place and proceed about his or her business without providing any sound or visual cues to the presence of the mouthpiece.
