01
Take the signs seriously
Worn tooth surfaces, sensitive teeth, muscle tension, jaw-joint discomfort, headaches or repeated damage to restorations can indicate overloading. We assess the teeth, bite, muscles and joints together.
ZAK Berlin-Mitte
Protection, relief and control
Individual splints for grinding, clenching and functional discomfort
Grinding and clenching can strain teeth, fillings, restorations, chewing muscles and jaw joints. An individually planned splint provides protection, but does not replace assessing possible causes and contributing factors.
Functional diagnosticsDigital designPractice laboratoryDirect bite control
Our treatment approach
Digitally recorded, made in our own laboratory and checked directly in the bite.
We explain the starting situation, options, limitations and alternatives so that you can make an informed decision. The exact process always depends on your individual clinical findings.
02
Not a standard splint
The splint is individually designed from a digital scan. Material, height, guidance and the intended relief depend on the findings and treatment objective. In our own laboratory, the design can be coordinated directly with the clinical situation.
03
More than a grinding guard
Depending on need, we make occlusal and protective splints, retainers, sports mouthguards or special temporary splints. Fit, comfort and bite are checked after delivery and adjusted where necessary.
Every part remains connected
Diagnostics, treatment, laboratory work and aftercare stay together.
Complex dentistry becomes easier to understand when all involved areas work together directly. Findings, images, scans and plans are available wherever they are needed.

Does a splint cure grinding?+
A splint protects the teeth and can relieve structures. Triggers such as stress, sleep-related factors or functional issues may also need to be considered.
How is the splint made?+
We record the dental arches digitally, design the splint individually and produce it in our practice laboratory.
