Aqualizer Splint

The Aqualizer is a hydro-dynamic fluid system that allows the oral musculature to “self-adjust” in developing bite balance and stability through a minimally invasive approach to TM joint treatment, occlusal treatment and muscle pain. It allows a balancing of the neuromuscular and skeletal systems of the mouth and cranium. On the one hand, the Aqualizer provides a cost-effective diagnostic aid, while simultaneously providing treatment for these patients.
Essentially, the Aqualizer is a cost-effective, pre-fabricated, temporary or emergency self-adjusting splint. It can be used to assist in providing a differential diagnosis for TMD and occlusal issues, effectively separating joint pain from muscle pain from “bite”/occlusal pain. It also can be used as part of a system to obtain a physiologically balanced bite registration prior to impression-taking for dental appliances. If the Aqualizer is successful in relieving the pain, the appropriate occlusal treatment plan is identified and selected for the patient’s needs (splint, equilibration, restorative procedures, orthodontics etc).
