摘要: The oral training device for muscles of the throat and/or face includes a panel which is receivable in the oral cavity formed between the lips and teeth. The panel has a first face adjacent to the lip area and an opposite second face being adjacent to the teeth and/or gums when in use. The device includes a handle which projects outwardly from the first face for applying an outward pulling force to the panel generally away from the oral cavity. The device also includes an elongate platform extending laterally across the first face onto which the upper and lower lips are placeable when in use.

摘要: An apparatus for providing breathing assistance includes a body with a recess for receiving teeth of a user to thereby position the body within an oral cavity of the user. A first opening extends beyond lips of a user to allow air from outside the oral cavity to be drawn in through the opening. A second opening is provided in the oral cavity to allow air to be directed into a posterior region of the oral cavity. A channel connects the first and second openings and through at least part of a buccal sulcus of the user.

摘要: 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.

摘要: A device and a method for creating and/or maintaining an obstruction free upper airway. The device fits under the chin of a subject adjacent to the subject's neck at an external location corresponding approximately with the subject's internal soft tissue associated with the neck's anterior triangle. The device is capable of exerting negative pressure on the surface of a subject's neck, displacing the soft tissue forward and enlarging the airway.

摘要: A mandibular advancement device is disclosed. An upper component and a lower component are used as splints on the maxilla and mandible. A wire may be mounted to the lower components at the molar buccal sides. The wire passes through a channel on the anterior of the upper component, in a slidable fashion. The channel may be circular or have a cross-sectional shape including a flat side. A forward shield cushions or protects the interior of the oral cavity as the wire may move back and forth. The device may be made entirely of plastic or biocompatible materials.

摘要: A method for a first set of processors and a second set of processors comprises, the first set of processors processing a set of queries, as a result of a change in utilization of the first set of processors, processing the set of queries using the second set of processors. The change in processors is independent of a change in storage resources, the storage resources shared by the first set of processors and the second set of processors.

摘要: Disclosed herein is a sleeping mouthpiece which can prevent separation during sleeping by wrapping the palate such that the sleeping mouthpiece gets in contact with the palate and can be adjusted according to the teeth arrangement by adjusting an upper mouth fit to the upper teeth and a lower mouth fit to the lower teeth back and forth. The sleeping mouthpiece includes: an upper mouth having an upper outer guide, an upper inner guide and an upper occlusal surface to form an upper teeth fitting part to which the upper teeth are fit, so that an upper rigid panel is inserted into the upper mouth; and a lower mouth having a lower outer guide, a lower inner guide and a lower occlusal surface to form a lower teeth fitting part to which the lower teeth are fit, so that a lower rigid panel is inserted into the lower mouth, wherein a hard palate support is connected to the upper end of the upper inner guide and comes into contact with the intraoral hard palate to support the intraoral hard palate, sliding rods are formed at both sides of the upper occlusal surface in order to connect the upper mouth and the lower mouth with each other so that the upper mouth and the lower mouth can be moved back and forth, and the sliding rods are inserted and guided into guide slits formed at both sides of the lower occlusal surface. The sleep mouthpiece can prevent separation of the upper mouth by the power of the tongue to push out of awareness during sleeping since supporting the intraoral hard palate while getting in contact with the intraoral hard palate, and can be adjusted according to various kinds of teeth arrangements since the upper mouth and the lower mouth can move back and forth by coupling of the sliding rods and the guide slits.

摘要: One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system that monitors and detects obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The system includes an oropharynx protection appliance, which includes a passive tongue retention structure having an end portion adapted to prevent a pharyngeal portion of a tongue of a subject from collapsing and at least one anchoring structure that is connected to the passive tongue retention structure and adapted to secure the passive tongue retention structure within the subject's mouth in a removable fashion. The system also includes a sensing system attached to a portion of the oropharynx apparatus. The sensing system includes a sensor to measure a position of the pharyngeal portion of the tongue to detect an obstruction of the oropharynx; and a wireless transceiver to transmit data related to the obstruction of the oropharynx to a remote diagnostic device.
