The best mandibular position is determined with measuring gauges. Of course, the dental technician also needs models of the jaws.  The most accurate way to do this is with 3D technology. Using the scanner, thousands of individual images are assembled into a three-dimensional pattern. In the dental laboratory, these are then used to produce the splints. These splints, also called protrusion splints, guide the lower jaw into an advancement position. This tightens the tongue and mouth muscles and prevents the tongue from closing the pharynx. These appliances can also be further adjusted after insertion via small set screws. If necessary, we can also provide you with the names of qualified doctors who, after appropriate diagnostics, will issue a prescription, even for patients with statutory health insurance.
