PROTECT PATIENTS AGAINST THE EFFECTS OF BRUXISM WITH BITE SPLINTS

Nancie wears bite splint

Dentists nationwide report a growing prevalence of bruxism, clenching and TMD symptoms among their patients.1 Choose a bite splint that will best protect their dentition and restorations from the effects of bruxism.

Comfort3D Bite Splint

The Comfort3D Bite Splint is a patient-specific, digitally designed and 3D-printed hard nightguard. In addition to its ability to alleviate the damage caused by parafunctional habits, the Comfort3D Bite Splint also helps offset the effects of bruxing and protects existing healthy dentition and dental restorations from daily wear and tear.

The device serves as an occlusal guard that fits over all of the upper or lower teeth. The Comfort3D Bite Splint tray comes in a clear color and consists of a single-layered hard yet flexible material that provides durability and comfort.

Comfort H/S Bite Splint

The Comfort H/S Hard Soft Bite Splint is a splint designed to alleviate the pain and damage caused by severe bruxing or clenching of the teeth and is the most widely prescribed bite splint due to its comfort and fit. It is BPA-, metal-, and acrylic-free and available in clear, blue and pink.

Two layers make up the Comfort H/S Bite Splint: a 1-mm soft polyurethane inner layer and a 3-mm hard copolyester outer layer. The soft internal surface rests comfortably against the teeth and gums, while the hard occlusal surface provides durability.

CLEARsplint®

The CLEARsplint® is a nightguard fabricated from a modified composite material that is made to your patient’s prescribed bite plane.

This optically clear splint is nearly invisible when worn and amine-free to resist yellowing. When placed in warm water before inserting in the mouth, it will self-adjust for the closest fit and increased patient comfort. Because it does not contain the methyl methacrylate found in other acrylic splints, the possibility for allergic reactions is reduced. Chairside repairs can easily be made with cold-cure acrylics.
