ZenSplint™ nylon splints are an advanced, modern solution in splint therapy. Fabricated using advanced 3D printing technology, these appliances allow for a less bulky design and maximize tongue space compared to traditional acrylic options, helping patients adjust quickly and comfortably.
Advanced Performance
Highly Stain-Resistant
Vapor Polished
Custom-Made
BPA-Free
Advantages & Benefits
Engineered for high tensile strength, the nylon construction is virtually unbreakable, offering a durable, reliable solution for effectively managing bruxism.
Improved Comfort
This design is less bulky and maximizes tongue space, helping patients adjust quickly and comfortably.
High Durability
Medical-grade nylon is tough and resistant to cracking, wear, and breakage, unlike traditional acrylic, which can be brittle.
Lightweight Flexibility
The lightweight material offers a snug fit, allowing patients to open and close their mouths to speak and drink water comfortably without removing the device.
Hygienic Safety
The vapor polishing technique seals nylon's porous surfaces, making it smoother and impermeable to fluids and stains.
Unique Vapor Polishing Technique
Vapor polishing is a specialized technique used to improve the surface finish of 3D-printed objects.
We have developed a unique vapor polishing formula in which the nylon object is placed in a chamber filled with biocompatible solvent vapors that gently soften the material's outer layer. This softening allows for the smoothing of any surface imperfections, resulting in a glossy, polished appearance.
FAQs
-
ZenSplint™ appliances are fabricated using advanced 3D printing technology and medical-grade nylon instead of traditional acrylic. This allows for an ultra-thin, lightweight design with more tongue space, making the appliance comfortable and convenient for patients to wear.
-
ZenSplint™ appliances are engineered for exceptional durability using nylon construction. With a tensile strength of up to 47 MPa and a modulus of up to 1650 MPa, the material is highly resistant to cracking, wear, and breakage. Unlike traditional acrylic appliances that can become brittle over time, nylon splints are designed to withstand the daily stress of clenching and grinding, making them a virtually unbreakable solution.
-
A custom-fitted ZenSplint™ appliance acts as a protective shield between the teeth. By absorbing the intense pressure created by clenching and grinding, the splint helps protect enamel, reduce wear, and prevent damage to natural teeth. This proactive protection can help patients avoid discomfort and costly dental repairs associated with untreated bruxism.
-
Yes. ZenSplint™ appliances are hypoallergenic, BPA-free, and fabricated with a specialized vapor polishing process that smooths and seals the nylon surface. This creates a glossy, polished finish that is more resistant to stains, fluids, and bacteria buildup, helping maintain a cleaner and more hygienic oral appliance.
