Removable dental occlusal splint, custom-made

Definition

A rigid or flexible custom-made device intended to overlay the occlusal surfaces of the teeth to maintain the position of displaced or moveable teeth, to treat teeth clenching and bruxism and their sequelae, and to provide temporary relief from muscle or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain (e.g., from TMJ dysfunction). It is removable by the patient (e.g., during meals), and is typically made of synthetic polymer materials and manufactured to meet the needs of an individual patient. This is a reusable device.
