Fluid Motion Jaw Exercising Device
US Patent:
5562105, Oct 8, 1996
Filed:
Jul 26, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/495541
Inventors:
Steven Syrop - Chappaqua NY
Howard Israel - Great Neck NY
Howard Israel - Great Neck NY
International Classification:
A61G 1500, A61C 514
US Classification:
128845
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for exercising small joints such as the temporomandibular joint connecting the upper and lower jaws, fingers and toes of a user and for toning jaw muscles of the user. First and second members coupled together so that at least one of the members is movable relative to the other member. An expandable and contractible fluid reservoir is positioned between the first and second members so that the first and second members will move relative to each other as the expandable and contractible reservoir expands and contracts. At least one of the members is then positioned to exercise the joint, specifically to exercise the jaw. To use the apparatus, the user places the first and second members gently into the mouth and then squeezes a fluid source connected to the expandable and contractible reservoir to expand and contract the reservoir thereby moving the jaws or joint to be exercised. When used for toning jaw muscles, the expandable and contractible fluid reservoir is prevented from contracting as the user bites down on the first and second members. This prevention of contraction creates a resistance against which the biting down by the user acts.
Method And Device For Improving Temporomandibular Joint Range Of Motion And Strengthening/Massaging Jaw Muscles
US Patent:
2014001, Jan 16, 2014
Filed:
Aug 13, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/006689
Inventors:
Howard A. Israel - Great Neck NY, US
Assignee:
THERAPEUTIC MOBILIZATION DEVICES, LLC - Great Neck NY
International Classification:
A61H 1/02
US Classification:
601 5
Abstract:
A therapeutic exercising device that can simultaneously increase temporomandibular joint range of motion and strengthen jaw muscles comprises two bite members with bite portions for insertion between a user's teeth and a bellows between the bite members that moves them relative to each other toward an open position that separates the user's upper and lower jaws. A spring exerts a predetermined opening force on the bite members open, and one or more elastic members attached between the bite members exert an opposing closing force. A user-operated pneumatic pump introduces air under pressure into the bellows to open the bite members when the closing force is sufficient to overcome the opening force. The device can be used with air bladders that massage the jaw muscles, with the optional application of heat or cold. The device is usable with a mandible translation adapter to exercise a user's mandible in the posterior-anterior direction.
