The Jaw Stabilization Splint is a clear-plastic dental device, custom-fitted to the patient’s dental arch, that holds the jaw and teeth in a stable position. It is best for patients maintaining tooth alignment after braces removal, easing jaw-joint pain from bite disorders, or protecting the teeth from grinding during sleep.
Functions of the Jaw Stabilization Splint:
Maintaining Orthodontic Treatment Results: After braces removal, the jaw stabilization splint helps keep the teeth in their new positions, preventing them from shifting back to their original positions.
Supporting Bite Disorder Treatment: The splint helps reduce pressure on the jaw joint, preventing and supporting the treatment of issues such as jaw pain and inflammation.
Preventing Teeth Grinding: For patients who grind their teeth during sleep, the splint protects the teeth from damage and reduces stress on the jaw muscles.
Procedure:
The dentist will take impressions of the patient’s mouth or use 3D scanning technology to create a model for the splint. The jaw stabilization splint will then be custom-made for each patient to ensure a perfect fit and comfort. The patient will receive instructions on how to use and care for the splint to achieve maximum effectiveness and extend its lifespan.
The jaw stabilization splint is an effective solution to maintain oral health and ensure long-term treatment results.
