Biofeedback Training

Biofeedback is a potent, science-backed tool that helps people to become aware of their body's behaviors and processes and to learn how to control them. Its effectiveness in managing a broad spectrum of behavioral disorders and medical conditions is well-documented. Typical use cases include neurofeedback to learn how to better control your brain activity or heart rate variability training. JawSense has developed patented technology to enable real-time biofeedback training specifically for bruxism behaviour.

Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence

Sophisticated AI/ML algorithms interpret sensor data from our biofeedback device, evaluating your jaw muscle activity, sleep quality, and stress levels. Our proprietary algorithms categorize different types of jaw muscle activities, evaluate sleep quality metrics, compute a variety of additional health metrics, and generate optimized biofeedback signals for each individual.

ExG Technology

ExG technology underpins the functionality of the JawSense device. ExG sensors are able to measure biopotential coming from the human body. For example, an ECG (electrocardiography) can measure the electrical pulses coming from your heart. Similarly, muscle contractions result from the firing of neural pathways and this can be measured by an EMG sensor (electromyography). Our patented technology leverages multiple ExG signals and smart algorithms to predict and detect bruxism episodes with unparalleled accuracy, which is crucial for effective biofeedback training.

Bruxism & Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD)

JawSense is dedicated to propelling research on bruxism and TMD to assist individuals in alleviating their symptoms and enhancing their wellbeing.

Bruxism, characterized by excessive teeth grinding or jaw clenching, can have significant health implications. Scientific research continues to enrich our understanding of this condition, its causes, symptoms, and potential damage. Numerous questions about the origin and best treatment strategies for bruxism remain unresolved. For a comprehensive dive into the science of bruxism, visit our dedicated blog post on the topic.

Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), the second most prevalent muscular disorder globally, often go undiagnosed, and treatment guidelines are at best ambiguous. Understanding TMD involves navigating a host of scientific factors—from potential causes and symptoms to the long-term impact on one's quality of life.

By integrating scientific principles with leading-edge technology, JawSense is transforming the approach to jaw health. We're committed to pushing the limits of knowledge and delivering innovative solutions that empower you to reclaim control of your wellbeing.
