Why this course?

Description

Video 1:

In this video, I explain splint therapy and the different types of appliances used.

I also list the top 3 splints that I routinely use in TMD pain management.

 

Video 2:

This is a very important splint in the spectrum of TMD management.

What is a permissive splint and how is it used makes the foundation of this video.

I explain the design of the splint, the ideal occlusion, and how to achieve it when adjusting the bite. Also included are indications and duration of wear.

 

Video 3:

Very important video in the series of TMD management, where a lot of questions will get answered. In this, I explain the procedure for getting a stabilization splint made by the laboratory and then adjusting the bite intra-orally using 100 micron articulating paper.

As awareness regarding splint therapy is bleak, there are not many laboratories trained in the art of splint fabrication. With this very thought, we started MIK Splint Lab in the year 2020 with the mission of helping you take care of your TMD patients.

 

Video 4:

What can you do for patients who cannot afford a laboratory-fabricated permissive splint, owing to a lack of finances or time. This is where a direct stabilization splint comes into the picture.

Because it is fabricated intraorally using self-cure acrylic resin, the production cost is minimal, and also the time needed to fabricate the splint can be significantly reduced.

In this video, I explain step-by-step how to go about designing and delivering a direct permissive splint to the patient.
