Indicazioni

Used for the management of TMJ disorders and bruxism by repositioning the mandible to a therapeutic position.

Contraindications

Patients with acrylic or resin allergies
Active periodontal disease or poor oral hygiene compromising fit
Anterior tooth mobility or compromised incisal integrity
Non-compliant patients unable to attend follow-up appointments for adjustment or monitoring

Limitations

Covers only anterior teeth and prevents posterior occlusion; retention may be limited in cases with reduced incisor morphology or spacing
Short‑term therapeutic use intended; risk of irreversible occlusal changes or anterior open bite with long-term continuous wear

Preparation

Submit a maxillary intraoral scan capturing intact anterior teeth; include opposing arch for occlusal reference if needed. No reduction or physical model required. Ensure centric relationship and vertical dimension are recorded digitally.

Turnaround Time
