How Zerene Compares
You Have Options. Here's How They Stack Up.
Most solutions protect your teeth. Only Zerene® trains your jaw to stop grinding.
If you've ever searched "how to stop teeth grinding," you've probably landed on the same short list: a mouthguard from your dentist, a boil-and-bite from the drugstore, Botox, or just living with it. These are all real options, we get that. But there's a difference between managing a problem and solving it.

The Biofeedback Era
New competitors have arrived. We welcome them.
The emergence of biofeedback earbuds and headbands is a sign the industry is finally catching up to what Zerene has known for years: protecting teeth isn't enough. Training the brain is the goal.
But not all biofeedback is created equal, and where you measure matters enormously.
Earbuds and headbands detect secondary signals: muscle tension in the jaw, electrical activity in the scalp, subtle shifts in ear canal pressure. These signals are real, but they're indirect. They infer grinding from a distance.
Zerene measures at the source.
The Zerene Moon Module™ sits directly on your mouthguard at the point of contact between your teeth. It detects actual bite force in Pascals, categorizes every clench as weak, medium, or hard, and captures your true grinding pattern with a precision that secondary sensors simply can't match. Your Z-Score™ isn't an estimate. It's a measurement.
Then there's the human side. Algorithmic coaching can tell you your numbers. Zerene's dedicated support team helps you understand them — and what to do next. When you're frustrated at week two because your Z-Score isn't budging, a real person is there. That's not a feature most apps can offer.

Why Zerene Wins
A mouthguard absorbs the damage. Botox weakens the muscle. Zerene retrains the reflex. Using gentle vibrational biofeedback, Zerene teaches your brain, while sleeping, to release the jaw before a grind becomes a bite. Clinical evidence shows biofeedback significantly reduces bruxism episode frequency. Up to 90% of users see a reduction in grinding. Many reach Maintenance Mode, where they no longer need to wear the device every night.
You can't fix what you can't see. Zerene's app tracks your Z-Score, bite intensity, and clenching trends across every night of sleep and translates the data into coaching guidance. Understanding your patterns is the first step to changing them.
From custom impression kit to live coaching support, Zerene was designed around the reality that real people need real help. Our small, dedicated team is here when you have questions, when something feels off, or when you just need someone to confirm you're making progress.
