The OraStretch press jaw motion rehab system is a handheld unit designed to stretch a user's jaw to treat trismus, dysfunction and hypomobility. The device uses passive motion to stretch the user's jaw, joint and facial tissues for increased mobility, flexibility, and function.

The OraStretch press device provides a curved, anatomically correct stretch for patients to treat or rehabilitate their jaw and temporomandibular joint. The OraStretch press can be used for stretching, passive motion, and muscle strengthening. By utilizing the OraStretch press, a user can increase their range-of-motion, improve their jaw and joint function, and reduct swelling and pain.

With continual and diligent use of the OraStretch press, a typical patient can gain 1-2 mm per week in overall range of motion, with short-term gains of 1-4 mm immediately after stretching sessions. Use the OraStretch press daily as directed by your doctor. Your recovery depends on your commitment to rehabilitation and is the only way to assure yourself a full, functional recovery.

Compared to other jaw motion rehab systems, the OraStretch press, opens 20% wider, is about 50% smaller and lighter, and patients don't have the continuing expense of replacement pads.

One free pack of replacement pads, per month, will be provided to the initial registered user of the OraStretch® press.  This offer is subject to change at any time, and does not include shipping/handling.

The OraStretch press is clinically proven as more effective than self-exercises and tongue depressors. The press is easy to use and portable, allowing patients to perform their necessary therapy while continuing in their daily life. The OraStretch press has been used by thousands of patients suffering from trismus and jaw dysfunction, and may be able to help you. 

The OraStretch press includes the OraStretch press device, a patient log, a safety limit knob, foam bite pads, and measuring scales, all easily carried in the travel bag. The OraStretch press device itself includes the safety limit adjustment knob, which allows the patient and doctor to control the therapy and prevent overstretching. The OraStretch press device mouthpieces are softened by foam pads and spread the force of the stretch across the users teeth. Special pads are also available for edentulous patients.

The OraStretch press has been studied and successfully tested in clinical trials of post-surgical and post-radiation trismus, TMJ disorders, and traumas. Recent studies also indicate efficacy for treatment of orofacial pain and non-surgical TMJ conditions.

The OraStretch press foam pads and the Range-of-Motion scales can also be purchases separately without prescription. The OraStretch press should only be used under the guidance of a medical professional.  Please see the Instruction Manual for more information, warnings, and usage instructions.
