Sleepless in Headgear…
The boy in the picture is my youngest son Ethan and the story begins when he started wearing braces and headgear.Ethan is not a complainer by nature so when he had problems sleeping with his headgear I didn’t know about it until he started falling asleep in school.
He tried everything to get some relief including sleeping on a Nerf™ football. Nothing worked-nothing except removing his headgear.
He finally asked me to make him something to help him sleep. I started with an old king size pillow, tore it apart and resewed it with a large hole through it. After a few alterations the pillow became smaller in size and the hole became a slot which accommodated Ethan’s headgear
and cheek. And to my amazement, it worked!Every morning Ethan would wake still wearing his headgear after a good night’s rest. But a new problem arose…Ethan had friends who also had dental problems. He felt sorry for them so he started lending them his pillow. I felt it was not sanitary and that was when the pillowcase was developed.
After extensive research, I realized there were no pillows quite like ours. I contacted a patent attorney, did some more research and applied for a patent.
I am currently introducing the pillow to orthodontists in hopes they will recommend it to their patients. After all, Kids deserve a good night’s sleep too!

P.S. By the way, we did get the patent and have sold it to Ortho Kinetics!
Thank you for trying our pillow.
