What is a Dental Splint?
A dental splint is a custom-made appliance, typically constructed from acrylic, metal, or a combination of materials, designed to fit over the upper or lower teeth. Its primary function is to stabilize the teeth or jaws, either by holding them in a specific position or by providing a protective barrier against damaging forces such as grinding or clenching.
Benefits of Dental Splint
Pain Relief: By stabilizing the jaw and preventing harmful movements, dental splints can alleviate pain and discomfort associated with TMJ disorders and bruxism.
Protection: Splints protect teeth from the wear and tear caused by grinding, preventing long-term damage and the need for more extensive dental treatments.
Enhanced Healing: In cases of trauma or surgery, splints support the affected area, promoting proper healing and reducing the risk of complications.
Improved Oral Health: By preventing issues like tooth grinding and maintaining alignment after orthodontic treatment, splints contribute to better overall oral health.
Types of Dental Splints
Night Guard:
- A night guard is a type of occlusal splint designed to protect teeth from grinding or clenching during sleep (bruxism). It is typically made of a durable plastic material and fits over the upper or lower teeth, creating a barrier that prevents the teeth from grinding against each other.
Occlusal Splint:
- An occlusal splint is a general term for any dental device used to stabilize the jaw, protect teeth, or manage conditions like TMJ disorders. It includes devices like night guards, stabilization splints, and bite plane splints.
Bite Plane Splint:
- A bite plane splint is used to treat TMJ disorders by altering the occlusion (bite) to reduce strain on the temporomandibular joint. It helps to reposition the jaw and alleviate symptoms like jaw pain and headaches.
Michigan Splint:
- The Michigan splint is a specific type of occlusal splint designed to treat TMJ disorders. It is usually made of hard acrylic and fits over the upper teeth. It helps to align the jaw correctly, reducing stress on the TMJ and providing relief from pain.
Bleach Tray:
- A bleach tray, also known as a teeth whitening tray, is a custom-fitted tray used to hold bleaching gel against the teeth. Patients use it at home as part of a professional teeth whitening treatment. The tray ensures even distribution of the whitening agent on the teeth.
Retainer:
- A retainer is an orthodontic device worn after braces or other orthodontic treatments to maintain the position of the teeth. It prevents teeth from shifting back to their original positions and is usually made of clear plastic or acrylic.
Implant Impression Tray:
- An implant impression tray is a specialized tool used to take an accurate impression of the mouth in preparation for dental implants. It captures the position and orientation of the dental implants to ensure the proper fit of the prosthetic tooth or crown.
Denture Impression Tray:
- A denture impression tray is used to take impressions of the gums and surrounding oral structures for the fabrication of dentures. It ensures that the dentures will fit properly and comfortably in the patient’s mouth.
Smile Design Prep Guide:
- A smile design prep guide is a tool used by dentists and dental technicians during cosmetic procedures to plan and design the ideal smile. It helps in preparing the teeth and gums for procedures like veneers, crowns, and other aesthetic enhancements, ensuring that the final result meets the patient's expectations.
