In the preferred embodiment, an impression tray, that is provided to hold a mouthpiece against the teeth of the mandible, is connected to one of the lengthwise members. A mandible support, to support the underside of the mandible, is connected to the other of the lengthwise members. The lengthwise members are adapted for adjustable movement to a fixed position in which the mandible is held between the mouthpiece and the mandible support. The mandible can thereafter, be manipulated by manipulation of the lengthwise members.
