Why bth4 - break the habit?

bth4 mouth guard was used to successfully treat more than 90% of patients with severe bruxism symptoms. Initial trials targeted only severe cases of bruxism where other treatments were unsuccessful. 

bth4 is the leader biofeedback treatment for severe bruxism

​Conventional mouth guards are excellent preventing teeth damage but could neglect many of bruxism’s devastating effects.  bth4 promotes a more desirable behavior by eliminating the excessive forces during occlusion and encouraging a more natural resting position, plus fitting time is practically eliminated!

Why are experts choosing bth4 - break the habit?

bth4 was created in the premise that grinding (clenching) is not the problem but the excessive pressure applied to the jaw. Many biofeedback devices are based on electronics and rely on batteries. Some even have the battery stored in the mouth, which could potentially be harmful. Another problem that often occurs with electronic biofeedback devices is something called a “false trigger”. Many of these devices are focussed on detecting muscle activity and can detect a movement that is not bruxism, but still give feedback (for instance, turning around in bed). That makes it hard to distinguish what the unwanted behaviour is as it is giving pulses when they are not needed. Our device works without the need of complex electronics and/or batteries. This, not only reduces the complexity, size and potential risk that comes with a device relying on batteries. It also significantly reduces the cost, making it wider available to the public. 

Principle of operation:

The principle is in some way similar to the “thumb-sucking habit breaking device”. In this case, the undesirable behavior is the excessive pressure application. When using bth4 during a bruxism event, the motion of the lower jaw transfers through the feedback mechanism, making the spikes contact the palate causing immediate discomfort, this forces the user to cease the undesirable behavior.
