A device for separating between the upper and lower jaws is disclosed. The device comprises at least one substantially U-shaped rib and a deformable member associated therewith such that said member gradually changes its shape when a pressure is applied on the at least one rib by the jaws. The device is suitable for preventing self-inflicting or externally inflicted injury or for suppressing upper airway resistance syndrome, sleep apnea syndrome or snoring. By filling at least one reservoir formed in the deformable member with a beneficial or edible material and inserting the device into the oral cavity of a subject such that said deformable member separates an upper set of posterior teeth from a corresponding lower set of posterior teeth, the beneficial or edible material may be delivered to the subject.
