European Journal of Orthodontics , 06/08/09
Tanoue N et al. - Mandibular advancement splints (MASs) are used to advance the mandible forward in patients with sleep-disordered breathing. The conventional rigid MAS restricts the movement of the mandible, and this immobility sometimes produces discomfort, including temporomandibular disorders. Compared with the Silensor, the experimental MAS exhibited sufficient breaking strength, especially when a diagonal tensile load was applied to mimic mandibular lateral translation. When examining the clinical evaluation between 3 and 4 months after insertion, no damage or failure was observed.
