Answer the Quiz



You know the name and function of the copper piece in the center of the snaffle mouthpiece?

Answer - The name is saliva, whose function is precisely to stimulate salivation, which serves as a kind of "lubricant" to facilitate the action of the mouth, reducing "friction." Copper is a material that releases more saliva in relation to other materials commonly used in the manufacture of mouth - steel and iron.
