The Aqualizer short term temporary diagnostic splint relieves TMJ pain, and assists in differential diagnosis, helping to reposition the jaw to where it works best. Constructed with sealed plastic foil, allowing for the possibility of a very thin height. Upper edge is lined with foam to increase softness and prevent gum irritation. Expected usuability between one and two weeks.
Our quantitiy discounts make it easy to purchase a supply of Aqualizers at a discounted price; they last indefinitely in the freezer. When choosing Aqualizers, decide on the size (ultra, mini or slim) and the height (high, medium or low).
Size:
-
Ultra: the standard classic for average mouth size in a comfortable shape.
-
Mini: created especially for the smaller mouth or shortened dental arch.
-
Slim: the same length as the "ultra", with a narrower shape.
Thickness / Height:
-
high: for deep bites
-
medium: for normal bites
- low: extra low water filling, when a higher depth is poorly tolerated.
Important note:
According to the manufacturer, the lifespan of the Aqualizer is limited to a few weeks. However, maximum resilience of Aqualizers is also limited, so that the weld is loosened and the filling water runs out. The force required for this can be achieved or exceeded by strong biting on the Aqualizer, but is not the same for all Aqualizers. The Aqualizer can also be cut through by sharp edges in the denture. This is a design limitation, not a manufacturing defect.
If you only want to order Aqualizers for viewing, please do not open the seal of the case, because we cannot exchange used Aqualizers for hygienic reasons. If you are still of the opinion that your Aqualizer has a manufacturing defect, please return it to us for inspection. We will then be happy to help you with the manufacturer or his EU representative. However, only if the manufacturer acknowledges a material defect can we provide a replacement!
You can also avoid overstraining your Aqualizer by using it first during the day and wearing it only until you notice that you are pressing on it with your teeth. Only if you can wear your Aqualizer for over an hour or longer without pressing on it should you try to wear it during the night if necessary.
