Bite Splints
Bite splints, occlusal guards or night guards are one of the most common appliances we make. A well designed guard is a necessary protection device to people with habitual bruxing, and also pattern grinding.
Expensive restorative work can have a longer life if the patient is comfortable wearing an occlusal guard.
We can use either IOS (intra-oral scan or traditional impressions)
At Denture South we now offer you a large range of options for patient’s different needs.
- CNC machined, flat plane hard PMMA splints (no fuss fit)
- CNC machined Michigan splint with anterior guidance or canine guidance
- CNC machined alternative material. Astron clear-splint flexible, and also Acetel semi- rigid for very hard bite patients
- Vacuum formed hard/ soft splints. Traditional layer of PMMA over the top of a pressure formed base
