What Is Equilibration?

Equilibration is the practice of adjusting all teeth contacts to provide uniform occlusion between upper and lower teeth. This is a common solution for patients experiencing unstable bite force or TMJ-related issues.

BENEFITS:

• Restored jaw alignment

• Enhance bite force

• Increased oral health

How it Works

There are three steps in performing successful equilibration:

• Impression: A mold of the teeth is taken to indicate the current lower and upper bite

• Diagnostic: Preliminary equilibration to prepare the mold casting for the patient. Includes adding tooth-colored materials and finalizing the tooth structure.

• Procedure: By eliminating high spots, it allows the muscles of the face and jaw to relax. It usually takes an hour and a half for the first treatment, then we fallow that with another half hour a few weeks later. In most cases numbing is not needed.
