My device is a one-piece device that handles both the upper palate and teeth, and the lower teeth.
When you wear it, both the upper and lower parts of your mouth are hooked by the braces, so you don't have the mouth movement you normally would when speaking without braces.
It gives you the feeling of being trapped.
All this, however, obviously does not prevent the mouth from opening.
You can safely open your mouth and in that case the appliance remains hooked only above and no longer hooked to the lower part.
Then just close the bacchus to hook the lower part again.
The word is already severely limited by the fact that the braces cover the entire palate up to the upper teeth. The word is severely limited by the fact that the lower part of the appliance also has a protrusion that covers the lower teeth from behind.
It is very difficult both to speak and to be understood.
The ball obstructs the tongue.
You can also play it using the language itself. You can make it rotate on itself or make it move from side to side.
The tongue will never touch the lower or upper teeth as the appliance is completely closed and completely covers the upper and lower teeth from the inside.
There is therefore no way to touch the teeth with the tongue.
I don't think it's necessary to have the tongue grid on, it's more fun to have the ball.
Given their thickness, the pelottes make the upper and lower lips protrude.
It is therefore impossible to be able to completely close your mouth if you want to close your lips.
This device is very noticeable in my case.
As you will have seen from the photos, I have chosen very visible colors.
The celestial/blue color for the plaque with a little orange color mixed in.
The orange color for the pelottes and the tube covering the upper and lower arch.
The tubes for the headgear make it an even more interesting device.
If you wear the external bow by combining high pull headgear and cervical headgear together you will feel totally caged.
The device is very difficult to remove. Once released from the lower part by opening the mouth. You will have to help yourself a lot with your hands.
The palate is already very limited, if you see, I requested that the upper part cover the entire palate and be thick.
I would suggest adding two beads to prevent tongue movement, or one larger bead.
You may also request that acrylic vestibular shields be added to the left and righe side (such as Frankel braces) to make it even more uncomfortable.
