Welcome to bth4 ​- Break the habit
​
Designed to eliminate the excessive pressure of the grinding and clenching habit.

After years of research and development we created a new device to eliminate bruxism. Multiple prototypes were created, tested and a few patent applications submitted (patent in process).

The concept of the device was developed focusing two conditions:
  • Elimination of the excessive forces applied by the jaw.
  • Breaking the habit of the excessive pressure application.

​​The design is a combination of a mouth guard and an effective (and very simple) biofeedback device. The biofeedback will provide the necessary warning sign to prevent grinding, effectively stopping the undesirable jaw forces and initiating the instruction to eliminate the habit. The feedback will become active once the bruxism event starts and the level of discomfort will be proportional to the force applied by the jaw. The device works without the need of complex electronics and/or batteries (reducing the complexity, size, risk, fitting time and cost).

bth4 effectively eliminates sleep bruxism events, it has also been attributed with reductions in awake bruxism thanks to the principle of operation. The subconscious learns from the undesirable biofeedback and communicates it during awake bruxism preventing the pressure application even when the device is not being used.

   Multiple benefits can be obtained when using bth4  to treat bruxism/clenching, some of them are:
  • Headaches associated with bruxism will cease (ear pain, migraines, neck pain).
  • Gum recession linked to bruxism will stop (unfortunately gum will unlikely regenerate, but based in the results of periodontal treatment patients the benefits of using the device allowed them to recover faster 5 months without clenching/grinding than 5 years of periodontal).
  • Using the device alert the patient of the undesirable action while sleeping helping to eliminate the habit while awake, making it very beneficial for awake bruxism patients.

​We have been getting great results in severe cases of bruxism. Overall, we are at around 85% success rate (something like 4.5 stars). For moderate cases of bruxism, where pain is not a big factor, bth4 benefits might not be as noticeable.

Despite the fact that bth4 was created to “break the habit” and we have received feedback confirming it, some people continue to use the mouth guard after several months. It is difficult to determine if the habit has been permanently eliminated and not coming back. Bruxism is a very complex condition.
  
It is important to mention that multiple factors can influence your sleep (and pain), as bruxism, occlusion, respiratory (as sleep apnea). The recommendation is to perform a dental and sleep study.

bth4 is not a medical device.
