Effective Splint Therapy for Jaw & TMJ Disorders
At Coldy Dent, we specialize in functional dentistry that treats the root causes of jaw and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders—holistically and without surgery.
Dr. Manol Ivchev, our founder and a leader in functional dental medicine trained in the US, Austria, Luxembourg, Brazil, and certified by VieSID Vienna, emphasizes a non-invasive approach: custom-made splints. These devices help align the jaw, redistribute pressure on teeth, muscles, and joints, and relieve symptoms like teeth grinding, muscle fatigue, and joint tension.
Why Splints Work:
- They correct bite alignment before starting orthodontic or aesthetic procedures—preventing harmful stress from misplaced jaw positions .
- They offer gentle, painless, and reversible stabilization—suitable even for intricate TMJ issues.
- They preserve dental health long-term by reducing wear and preventing degeneration.
Our Approach:
- Holistic diagnosis: We consider the patient’s entire system—not just symptoms. We assess muscles, TMJ function, bite, and overall oral health .
- Prioritize foundations: We treat infections, gum disease, or inflammation first, before any orthodontic or cosmetic treatment begins .
- Integrated aesthetics and function: We ensure that any aesthetic procedure works in harmony with bite and joint health—avoiding future complications.
