INDICATIONS / CONTRAINDICATIONS
Indicated for patients that show increased tooth wear due to bruxing or clenching. Comfort H/S Bite Splint is the most widely prescribed bite splint due to its comfort and fit.
|
PREPARATION
Start with an accurate, void-free impression of both arches. Ensure no tears or bubbles are present in impression material for precision fit. Instruct patient to close into centric relation to verify midline position and bite. Then, place two cotton rolls behind the cuspids and instruct patient to close; with patient in open bite, inject bite registration into the posterior openings of both quadrants. In addition, inject bite registration into anterior opening to capture a complete open construction bite.
|
PATIENT DELIVERY
Seat splint and evaluate fit and retention. If adjustments are necessary, adjust with carbide bur or Lisko-S disc. Polish if needed. Once seated in the patient's mouth, check bite with marking tape to identify premature occlusion; adjust and polish as needed.
