摘要:
This disclosure includes magnetic field correction devices and methods for using the same. In particular, some magnetic field corrections devices include an arch-shaped body configured to be worn outside of a user's mouth such that the arch-shaped body follows a contour of the user's face; and where the arch-shaped body comprises one or more sidewalls configured to be coupled to a plurality of members comprising magnetically permeable material. Other embodiments employ a forehead support, frame, and one or more straps coupled to an arch-shaped body. Other embodiments employ a hybrid of intraoral and external embodiments.
