Splints
Dental or Orthodontic Splints are devices that are used when patients suffer from certain types of dental problems such as TMJ problems or chronic headaches. In orthodontics, a “splint” is designed to fit on top of the upper or lower teeth. An Occlusal Splint (also called a bite splint, bite plane, or night guard) is a removable dental appliance carefully molded to fit the upper or lower arches of teeth worn to reduce the amount of grinding pressure transferred to the teeth.

Mouthguards
Sports guards, mouth guards and mouth protectors are different names for the same thing: a device worn over your teeth that protects them from blows to the face and head. Mouth guards are an important piece of athletic equipment for anyone participating in a sport that involves falls, body contact or flying equipment.
