More Details
* The mouth piece fits the relaxed free space between the teeth and is slightly springy preventing the user from having to bite hard to stabilize the pointer whilst typing
* The open design helps reduce saliva build up and makes it easier to breath and speak whilst in use
* The flexible aluminium mouthstick is partly work hardened to give rigidity but still allows a certain number of adjustments to accommodate individual comfort


Models
One model is available in two sizes

Factors To Consider
Note
* The M-stick is not orthodontically correct, although its shape allows random placement in the mouth thus minimising pressure on individual teeth. If concerned check with your dentist first
* It is suitable as an alternative to a head pointer for use by individuals who have limited functional use of their hands
* Suitable for operating a keyboard and turning pages
