Jiggler Combo

35.0040.00

All four TalkTools Jigglers are effective for increasing sensory awareness in the muscles of the jaw, lips, and reducing “fixing” or tightening in the muscles of the jaw.

In some cases the Jigglers, satisfy the need for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) stimulation as a replacement to negative oral habits.

In addition, each individual TalkTools Jiggler can be used to meet more specific needs:
