Abstract: An appliance for use in a method of reducing facial aging and/or oral parafunctional activity comprising two parts, each comprising a composite structure comprising: a first layer formed of a durable, resilient, elastomeric material comprising a cured thermoset rubber and which in use contacts the occlusal biting surfaces of the posterior teeth; and a second layer formed of a durable, non-deformable material having a softening point over 100° C. which provides a bite plate; wherein the second layer of each part is provided with a protrusion formed of durable, non-deformable material having a softening point over 100° C. which is positioned such that in use the protrusion extends from the surface above at least a part of the first and/or second molar teeth which are in contact with the first layer. A method of making the appliance, a kit of parts, and methods of use are also disclosed.

Abstract: A mass produced universal dental appliancee (1) comprises two parts, the parts intended in use to contact the posterior teeth on respective opposite sides of either the upper or lower jaw, each part comprising a composite structure comprising: i) a first layer (2) formed a durable, resilient, elastomeric material having a softening point in the range from 35 to 100° C. and which in use contacts and grips the occlusal biting surfaces of the posterior teeth; and ii) a second layer (3) formed from a durable, non-deformable material having a softening point over 100° C. and which in use provides a bite plate; wherein the second layer of each part is provided with a protrusion (5), formed of durable, non-deformable material having a softening point over 100° C., which extends from at least 2 mm up to 20 mm from the surface (4) of the bite plate away from the first layer and which is positioned such that in use the protrusion extends from the surface of the bite plate above at least a part of the first and/or second molar teeth which are in contact with the first layer. The appliance is useful in a method for reducing facial aging.

Abstract translation: 大量生产的通用牙科器具（1）包括两部分，即用于与上颚或下颚的相应相对侧接触后牙的部分，每个部分包括复合结构，包括：i）第一层（2 ）形成了具有35至100℃的软化点的耐久弹性弹性体材料，并且其在使用中接触并夹住后牙的咬合咬合表面; 和ii）由具有软化点超过100℃的耐用的不可变形材料形成的第二层（3），并且其在使用中提供咬合板; 其中每个部分的第二层设置有突起（5），所述突起（5）由具有软化点超过100℃的耐用的不可变形材料形成，所述软化点从表面（4）延伸至少2mm至20mm ），所述咬合板远离所述第一层并且定位成使得在使用中所述突起从所述咬合板的表面延伸到所述第一和/或第二臼齿的与所述第一层接触的至少一部分上方 。 该设备在减少面部老化的方法中是有用的。
