Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about TMJ therapy, splints, and laser treatment.

What is a night guard / splint?

A custom-made dental appliance worn at night (or during the day) to prevent teeth grinding (bruxism), reduce jaw muscle tension, and protect the TMJ. It also helps realign the bite.

Which splint is better – CAD/CAM or acrylic?

CAD/CAM splints are digitally milled for superior fit and durability, often recommended for long-term use. Acrylic splints are also effective and more affordable. Dr. Arefin will recommend the best option for your condition.

How does laser therapy help TMJ pain?

Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths to reduce inflammation, increase blood flow, and stimulate tissue repair. It provides pain relief and relaxes jaw muscles without side effects.

How many laser sessions will I need?

Typically 3–6 sessions are recommended, depending on the severity of pain. Some patients feel improvement after the first session. Dr. Arefin will design a custom schedule.

Is splint therapy covered by insurance?

Some insurance plans cover part of the cost for TMJ treatment and night guards. We'll help you with claims and documentation.

How long does it take to get a custom splint?

For CAD/CAM splints, it takes about 5–7 days. Acrylic splints are usually ready within 3–5 days after impressions.
