Occlusal Splint Treatment at hiDental:

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!

After your condition has been diagnosed, the dentist will advise you on the appropriate treatment option. At hiDental, there are two main types of occlusal treatments: temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain treatment and occlusal splint therapy.

An occlusal splint is a treatment commonly applied to patients who suffer from teeth grinding. Nowadays, many people experience teeth grinding during sleep or clenching their teeth when concentrating at work. These habits are largely caused by stress in daily life and work, and they can lead to serious consequences such as:

• Severe tooth wear
• Temporomandibular joint disorders
• Overworked jaw muscles, causing pain every morning

While training yourself to stop clenching your teeth during concentration is completely achievable, stopping teeth grinding during sleep is much more difficult. To address this issue, an occlusal splint is a plastic device that fits over your teeth and is worn while sleeping. It helps relax the muscles and joints while also reducing tooth wear caused by grinding.

Each occlusal splint is custom-designed to fit the individual bite of each patient. Therefore, it usually takes 2–3 appointments to create a splint that fits you properly.

Modern life comes with an increase in lifestyle-related conditions, stress, and overwork. Occlusal disorders are no exception. If you notice any signs of bite-related problems, visit hiDental as soon as possible for an examination, consultation, and early, appropriate treatment.
