The Full Cheek bit features two bars on the side, making it impossible to pull through the horse's mouth. These bars create additional pressure on the horse's cheeks, enhancing maneuverability. As a stable and gentle bit, the Full Cheek is ideal for training young horses. The severity of the Full Cheek bit's effect varies depending on factors such as the type, thickness, and material, ranging from mild to sharp. To further increase its effectiveness, a full cheek loop can be attached to the cheekpiece of the bridle on either side of the bit. The top bar's end is inserted through the loop, creating leverage. These loops also prevent the bars from getting caught under the bridle's noseband.
