Abstract:
A trans mucosal neuromuscular electrical stimulation device ( 1 ) including a mouthpiece ( 3, 103 ), electrodes ( 32 a,  33 a,  132 a,  133 a ) associated with the mouthpiece ( 3, 103 ). The device ( 1 ) and/or mouthpiece ( 3, 103 ) incorporates electrical circuitry operatively connecting to the electrodes ( 32 a,  33 a,  132 a,  133 a ) to a power source and is configured to provide, in use, electrical stimulation to one or more palate and/or tongue muscles via the electrodes ( 32 a,  33 a,  132 a,  133 a ) through the oral mucosa. The treatment regime, including the location of stimulation and the parameters used, is designed to increase resting muscle tone and/or muscle tone during sleep.

Claim (Index 1):
An electrical stimulation training device for training one or more oral muscles during an awake state of the user, the device comprising a mouthpiece, at least one electrode associated with the mouthpiece and electrical circuitry operatively connected to the electrode, wherein the device is configured to provide, in use, via the at least one electrode an electric current with a frequency of up to 150 Hz.
