TMJ or Grinding Splints can be made
for people who grind or clench their teeth. Splints basically protect the teeth from wear, which at times can be severe if not treated. The bite guard is worn at night when most unconscious grinding and subsequent damage to the teeth occurs. People who find they grind their teeth during the day, may also wear their guard as needed. 
NTI Appliance: Breakthrough Treatment for Bruxism, Migraines, and TMJBruxism: an unconscious grinding and clenching of the teeth, can cause migraines, damage your teeth, and contribute to temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
The primary cause of bruxism is stress and tension, but grinding can become a habit, which is hard to break. The NTI-tss appliance, as shown in the photo to the left, keeps the back teeth from touching, which allows the joints to relax, the muscles to stop firing and creating tension, and helps to deprogram the grinding, stress cycle. NTI appliances have been proven to be effective for the treatment of migraines, and is often covered by insurance. Ask us about how we can help you get some relief. You deserve it!
