Considering that some digicams are emerging with built-in
smile detection, we'd say whipping that grin of yours into shape might not be a half bad idea. Granted, Patakara's latest certainly isn't the first, but rather than just shaping your smile, this thing actually exercises the muscles around your mouth -- presumably to help you cheese more intensely for even longer periods of time (you superstar, you). Heck, there's even three models with different resistance levels for those totally committed. But let's be honest, you won't even give those fancy
Body Trainer headphones a second glance -- are you really going to dedicate time each day for this? You are? Well, then by all means, hand over your ¥5,250 ($52) and get to chompin'.

I remember something similar from my childhood, in France... This stand up comedian from Canada was... How should I put this?... Very "limber" with his face... Does that make sense? Anyway, he made very funny faces, and explained to French people how you can do a facial gymnatic every morning in order to give more elasticity to your face muscles... Courtemanche, I think he was called...
Anyone care to try it out?
Anybody?
No?
Oh, alright.. I'll have a go at it.
let the dirty comments begin....
Now!
Those stronger cheek muscles will probably mean better sucking power.

So...she won't get lockjaw anymore? No deal. At least lockjaw discourages the dreadful pillow-talk afterwards.
Amirite?
ouch
I avoid pillow talk by promptly falling asleep.
two words: buttermilk.
This will give the user a Steven Tyler mouth? No thanks please.

Engadget, please, stop it! How am I supposed to know when April Fool's day comes?
Actually, some of us have been afflicted with Bell's Palsy (look it up) and indeed have weakened facial muscles.
I checked out the website. No this product is to help people that talk out of the side of their mouth and people that sleep with the mouth open. It trains your lip muscles to be shut. Sleeping with the mouth open is related to all kinds of problems. Sleep Apnea, dehydration. sagging face muscles, all kinds of stuff gets in your body that would not for not breathing through your nose. On top of that spiders like to crawl in peoples mouths at night. eek 50-60 bucks sounds like a deal. The problem is the person who talks out of the side of the mouth should still see a doc for a otoneurological and cranial nerve exam. that could show up other problems such as malignent skull based neoplasms. Cancer or a host of other issues related to herpes type that is non symptomatic. The problems with doctos is they might want to do with surgury what this device will help the body do on its own. If the muscles on the face are weak on one side this will help even the muscles out.
Its not for making you smile. When you put it in your mouth you are smiling and then you squeeze it in to make an O shape. thus helping the muscles get strength. I am an artist and comedian and I say put your money wear your mouth is. HA HA. you can see my art at wwwfrankcoble.com and comedy at www.mybadkitties.com thanks and I hope this is a responsible site.
