A therabite is a plastic device that is used to esercise your jaws. It is to help increase your mouth opening. They are very expensive devices. Deb (debandbill) has tried to get people to recycle their therabites. She gave her husbands to me and I passed it on to someone at my hospital. Here is the link. For more info you can do a search by typing therabite into the search bar on the top left. Anyone who has an unneeded therabite please consider donating it to someone who needs it.
