Spoon Gem with Tongue and Palate Pressure - Enhanced Mouth Control and Tongue Protection
Product Features
Material: Stainless steel and high-quality metal alloy Design: Special palate pressure system in spoon form Function: Prevents the tongue from slipping onto the gem and the palate from shifting Structure: Three-part working principle that distributes pressure to the tongue
Product Description
The Spoon Gem with Tongue and Palate Pressure is a technical piece of equipment developed to maximize control while protecting the horse's oral health. The special "spoon" structure at the heart of this gem is designed to physically prevent the horse from taking control by throwing its tongue onto the gem. It helps the horse breathe more comfortably and focus, especially during riding, by preventing unwanted displacement of the soft palate.
Balanced Pressure and Ergonomics: Unlike classic break-type gems, the closed spoon design does not apply sharp pressure to a single point on the tongue. Instead, it distributes the pressure across the entire tongue and palate, as in three-part gems. This feature allows the horse to maintain a more stable position in its mouth, enabling smoother yet clearer transmission of rider commands.
Technical Advantages and Pros
Prevents Tongue Slippage: Prevents the horse from escaping commands by wrapping its tongue around the bit.
Supports the Palate: The spoon shape maintains the position of the soft palate during riding, supporting breathing comfort.
Homogeneous Pressure Distribution: By spreading pressure instead of concentrating it at a single point, it prevents sores or excessive sensitivity in the horse's mouth.
High-Quality Material: Its stainless steel structure, resistant to salivary acid and moisture, ensures hygiene and longevity.
Improved Communication Quality: Provides a stable structure that allows the rider to transmit rein commands more refinedly.
Areas of Use
Correcting horses with tongue-over-bite habits
Horses with soft palate sensitivity or requiring respiratory monitoring
Professional riders who want to establish clear and balanced mouth contact
Advanced training requiring greater mouth control
