?:definition
  • Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies (i.e., either custom or standard kits) needed for preparing and using rigid or flexible appliances that overlay the occlusal surfaces of the teeth (i.e., dental splints). Items in these kits usually include a fiberglass ribbon soaked in a bonding agent and metal application clips; they may also include special scissors. The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. Occlusal splinting kits and trays are used mainly to maintain the position of displaced or movable teeth and/or to treat clenching and bruxism. Occlusal splints are usually fixed originally at the dental offices and then are worn by patients either continuously or during sleeping. Devices intended only for treatment of snoring and/or sleep apneas are considered orthoses.
