At Biologic Dentistry we combine low impact and traditional treatments to arrive at the desired asthetic and health goals. Through devices such as bite splints and mouth guards in combination with traditional extractions or tooth restorations, we can in many cases avoid the use of braces and headgear altogether. A splint/nightguard is meant as a physiologically correct bite that allows  the jaw joint (TMJ) to assume it's most correct and least traumatic position, as well as to prevent teeth from coming into damaging contact.

This position will allow for a stable base that will decrease both muscular activity and damaging forces to  the joint. What we mean by a "physiologically correct bite" is that built into the surface of as it contacts teeth in closure is a bite that is absolutely correct for proper function of the teeth in harmony with the TMJs and muscles that operate the joint.
