Occlusal splints are custom-made dental appliances designed to protect your teeth from the effects of grinding and clenching. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, occlusal splints are carefully tailored to fit comfortably while reducing jaw tension, minimising tooth wear, and helping relieve symptoms such as headaches and jaw pain. Worn mainly at night, these splints create a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth, supporting long-term oral health and a more relaxed, pain-free smile.

Bruxism is a common condition involving involuntary teeth grinding or jaw clenching, often occurring during sleep but sometimes during waking hours. Many people are unaware they grind or clench their teeth until symptoms develop or signs are identified during a dental examination.

At Brisbane Smile Boutique, bruxism is assessed as part of a broader evaluation of bite function, jaw health, and long-term dental stability.

Discover how advanced 3D scanning, digital bite mapping, and customised therapeutic treatments can relieve TMJ pain and restore jaw function. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, our clinicians use state-of-the-art technology to diagnose bite issues with precision and create personalised rehabilitation plans—including custom 3D-printed night splints—to deliver long-lasting comfort and balance.
