stabilization splint
"the patients will receive a stabilization splint fabricated using a fully digital workflow includes:~Intraoral scanning of maxillary and mandibular arches to create a digital model.~Jaw tracking using the Zebris JMA system to record mandibular movements. CAD design of the splint using Exocad software. Fabrication of the splint via 3D printing technology. The FD-SS is designed to provide optimal occlusal stabilization, reduce TMJ stress, and minimize enamel wear over 6 months.~Or the patient will receive stabilization splint fabricated using conventional methods. The intervention includes:~Taking alginate impressions of maxillary and mandibular arches to create plaster casts.~Jaw registration using a Lucia jig and semi-adjustable articulator for proper occlusal adjustment.~Manual fabrication of the splint using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin. The C-SS is designed to achieve occlusal stabilization and symptom relief for TMD patients over 6 months."
