Effective Bite Splints
More tooth structure is lost today to excessive bite forces than to decay. Properly adjusted bite splints maximize load distribution, and minimize muscle activity. Splints can be more than a protective coating between the upper and lower teeth. Through a little basic anatomy and case presentations we will illustrate how effective bite splints can be when their true effects are understood.
