GAME CHANGER…BRUXISM MANAGEMENT AND THE DUAL LAMINATE SPLINT
Bruxing is more than just grinding teeth…It’s a destructive force that can lead to painful fractures, damaging wear and serious TMJ dysfunction.
For patients with moderate-to-severe bruxism, dual laminate splints are truly a game changer, delivering the best balance between comfort and durability.
Why a Dual Laminate Splint?
• SHOCK ABSORPTION: Inner soft layer cushions heavy
forces, reducing stress on TMJ and teeth.
• OCCLUSAL STABILIZATION: Outer hard layer maintains proper occlusion and prevents unwanted bite changes.
• DIAGNOSTIC EFFICACY: Design provides insight into wear patterns, and the extent and nature of parafunctional activity.
• APPLICATIONAL VERSATILITY: Available in Night and Day Guard designs for 24/7 protection.
