ABSTRACT:
An occlusal splint is prepared by forming a wax pattern of a patient's bite corresponding to a desired occlusal spacing and fitting the pattern to working models of the patient's jaw teeth to duplicate the spacing in the models. A splint preform of light-curable octadecyl methacrylate composite material is applied to the model after which the occlusal impression is duplicated in the preform. The preform is then cured under high intensity light and then polished to complete the finished splint.
