Solutionz Occlusal Therapy

Our high trained doctors have had extensive training in identifying
unhealthy bite relationships. If any of these signs and symptoms is
discovered, your dentist may suggest occlusal therapy.

The process starts with an occlusal appliance. This hard acrylic appliance
is fabricated to fit snugly over either your upper or lower teeth. It is then
meticulously adjusted to fit as perfectly as possible against the opposing
teeth. With time, you will experience what a solid, stable bite feels like and
most likely, the signs and symptoms you both discovered will diminish or
even disappear.

When the bite stabilizes on the appliance and the joints and muscles are
comfortable, you will have experienced how your teeth might feel when
your mouth is restored. Often occlusal appliances are fabricated when
treatment is completed. This type of appliance is suggested when there is
concern about ongoing habits that cause premature breakdown of teeth
and restorative work that is present.

Regardless of the reason for occlusal therapy, our doctors will be sure to
spend time with you so that you have a clear understanding of why it is
prescribed, what to expect, and an idea of what the anticipated outcome
will be.
