Myosa® for Teeth Grinders Hard - TGH

Protection of the teeth from grinding with improved retention

The Myosa® TGH is a single-size, custom mouldable appliance designed to provide immediate symptom relief for patients with bruxism. The durable, dual-layered appliance provides an alternative to traditional flat plane splints and allows for better retention when moulding.

Design Features

The features of the TGH are specifically designed for bruxers and to help reduce tension in the muscles around the mouth and jaws caused by teeth grinding.

Directions for Moulding

The Myosa® TGH is fitted over the teeth and worn at night while sleeping and can also be worn during the day if daytime grinding is an issue. It features a unique flat base designed to protect the teeth and jaws from the effects of night time teeth grinding and is easy to mould in under two minutes.
