Many clinicians fabricate a stabilization appliance but are not
sure how it should be used. In this lecture, Dr. Okeson
presents a step by step algorithm that gives direction to the
clinician regarding the proper sequencing of treatment for a
stabilization appliance. Once the patient has successfully
responded to the treatment, the question that needs to be
addressed is, “What do you do next?” Does the patient’s
occlusion need to be changed? Dr. Okeson reviews seven
different ways a stabilization appliance may help reduce the
patient’s TMD symptoms. Once the patient’s symptoms have
been reduced, the clinician will need to decide what, if any,
additional treatment is needed. This lecture will help the
clinician determine if there is a need to permanently alter the
patient’s occlusion.
