Hawkeye Group is releasing to market ClenchAlert, a device designed to tackle teeth clenching and grinding while awake.

Teeth clenching and grinding is a common yet frequently unconscious behavior that affects a large portion of the global population. This can occur during the day due to stress, anxiety, or improper posture. Over time, this pressure on the jaw muscles can result in painful consequences, including chronic face, jaw, and neck pain; tension headaches and migraines; back and shoulder stiffness; and worn-down or damaged teeth.

Hawkeye Group’s ClenchAlert is a set it and forget it pressure activated sensor designed to monitor and address unconscious teeth clenching and grinding. The device works by passively resting between the teeth and providing real-time alerts when excessive pressure is detected, allowing the user to relax the jaw, thereby relieving tension-related tooth clenching and grinding before it causes pain and discomfort.

“Clenching and grinding can have serious long-term effects on your jaw, teeth, and overall health,” Hawkeye Group President Randy Clare said. “Many people don’t even realize they’re doing it until it’s too late. With ClenchAlert, we’re giving people the tools they need to take control of their jaw health and prevent the pain and discomfort that come with jaw tension.”

Founded in Warsaw, Ind., Hawkeye Group applies engineering and technology to develop solutions for managing chronic health conditions. Its focus is on designing products and strategies to address face, head and neck pain, and bruxism.
