Innovative splint therapy for TMC

The FOS splints fit patients with pressure-sensitive muscles in the head or neck area and chronic headache patients.

The FOS splints are fitted DIRECTLY to the patient in ONE SESSION within 30 minutes.

FOS is comfortable for the patient to wear and cost-effective. The splint reduces the contraction intensity of the jaw muscles by up to 70%*.

Innovative material concept

The splint material is made of polyester copolymer. The advantage of this is that the splints do NOT DISCOLOUR even when worn for a long time.

The system is EXTREMELY BREAKPROOF.

FOS upper jaw splint
  • The splint holds 4-6 teeth and thus distributes the forces over several teeth.
  • The disclusion element is convex. The patient bites on the two 1s in the mandible, which triggers the nociceptive trigeminal inhibition reflex* and the patient relaxes.

FOS mandibular splint
  • Small and comfortable to wear.
  • The mandibular splint also binds 4 teeth into the force distribution.
  • The patient bites on the two 1s in the upper jaw and thus triggers the inhibition reflex *.
