NiteBite targets bruxing

Bruxing has always been an issue for a large portion of the population. More than 50 million people (one in six) in the United States have symptoms of bruxing; however, they are rarely ever given an effective treatment.

That’s why Keystone Industries is excited to announce its product, NiteBite, a truly innovative device that easily and effectively treats grinding, clenching, pain, headaches and jaw joint syndrome (TMD or TMJ).

There are plenty of niteguard options out there, but they hardly ever work properly. Often, these devices overcorrect by opening the bite too far, and they do not stop bruxism and clenching.

NiteBite is different. Its special design and thin construction within the freeway space — the distance between the physiological rest position and the first point of contact of the upper and lower teeth — stops people from clenching and grinding their teeth. NiteBite can stop symptoms such as headaches and tooth and jaw pain as well.

This proprietary, patented and FDA-cleared device is the first biteguard that functions within the patient’s freeway space.

NiteBite uses the jaw’s natural proprioceptive response to trigger the jaw-opening reflex. As the lower teeth approach contact with the NiteBite, the jaw-opening reflex returns the lower jaw to the physiological rest position, where no teeth touch each other or the NiteBite. The muscles relax, and NiteBite effectively relieves jaw, head and neck pain, as well as associated symptoms of TMJ disorder.

Not only does the device work physiologically and simply, but it’s also easy to mold to the patient’s bite. In less than five minutes, a dentist or hygienist can heat the device and shape it to the patient’s front teeth. Then the patient is ready to go home with his or her new NiteBite.
