Thermoformed Splints

Thermoformed splints are one of the most widely used nightguard options --- lightweight, clear, and easy for patients to adapt to. While there are many ways they can be made, not all are equal.

At Derby, every thermoformed splint is manually crafted, then shaped using high-quality thermoplastic materials selected for clarity, durability, and comfort. This ensures a predictable fit --- whether the case begins from a traditional impression or an intraoral scan.

We offer three style variations:

  • Soft: Maximum comfort for sensitive patients
  • Hard-Soft: A balanced option combining comfort with bite stability
  • Hard: A rigid option when durability and protection are the priority

Turnaround

  • Standard turnaround: 5 days in lab
  • Not eligible for express due to manual processing steps

FAQ

How durable are thermoformed splints?

Durability depends on the selected material and the patient's habits. Hard materials resist wear longer.

Are these long-term appliances?

They are effective and comfortable, though patients with heavy parafunction may eventually benefit from a printed or milled splint.

Do these work with digital scans?

Yes --- we fully support digital workflows.

Can they be remade if the patient loses it?

Yes. Remakes are simple when the original file is on record.

Which material should I choose?

Soft for comfort, hard-soft for balance, or hard when strength and protection are the priority.

What’s the difference between Y3, Y4, and Y5?
