This can vary depending on the level you are riding and the club that is officiating. You need to get their rules before you show. Leave yourself enough time (several months at least) so if you need to use a different bit you and the horse have time to get used to it. But the general rules usually allow a broken snaffel as long as it's not a twist, not even a 'slow twist'. In the upper levels double bridles are common but there is a reason they are used in the upper levels. When you use 2 bits you need to understand the uses and need the experience to work them.

Do I need a dressage saddle for training level dressage?
I don't think there are any restrictions on the type of saddle you use. Bits are a different matter. Make sure the bit your using is allowed. Although a dressage saddle will help put you in the correct position, if you don't have one don't let it stand in your way. Keep riding and practicing. Later on as you move up in competition, there will be time to think about changing saddles. Have fun.
