PULL FORWARD
NIGHT TIME & DAY TIME TMD SPLINT
Pull-forward splints from Johns Dental are available in daytime and nighttime designs. Both are used to bring the condyles forward into a healthy disc/condyle relationship.
The daytime component is designed with short posterior flanges, to wear during waking hours. The nighttime splint, which incorporates long lingual flanges, is worn while sleeping. Both splints have full occlusal coverage, which helps prevent posterior intrusion. Some doctors prescribe one or the other, while some prescribe both for 24 hour wear.
