Mouthguards for treatment TMJ

  1.Splint

  It is made from the soft plates of Bio-plast, thickness is from 2,0 to 3,0 mm. It is the onejaw appliance of two-jaw action. On a palatal surface in frontal position area a protective onlay in a structural bite, which fixes central correlation of supramaxilla and lower jaw, is done;
  
Indications:

 Complaints about a neuralgia in the area of TMJ, which is often described as "panthodic" pain;

 Unsymmetrical or limited motions of lower jaw;

 Diskopathy, pathology of mobility of joint, clicking, pain, edema.

  2.Mouthguards for treatment bruxism:

    It can be soft and hard. Its thickness varies from 1 mm to 3 mm.
  Between occlusion, paradontium, TMJ, a musculature and CNS a reciprocal functional co-operation is existed. Psychological stress which conduces to myoneural tension of masticatory musculature can strengthen local functional disorders. The expressed stress is the etiologic factor of development of frontal-lateralis bruxism. A vicious circle which can intermit by the use of occlusal mouthguard for treatment of bruxism is created in such situations.
  This mouthguard has an even occlusal surface without additional ledges:

 Gives an insignificant disconnector;

 Reduces or removes hypertone of masseter;

 Prevents or removes pairfunction;

 Creates a symmetric masticatory function;

 Stabilizes occlusion after orthodontology treatment and before prosthesis.
