💥 The Truth About Bruxism Appliances—and How to Dramatically Grow Your Practice Without Them
For decades, clinicians have been told that bruxism appliances are the gold standard for treating clenching, grinding, and facial pain. But here’s the shocking reality:
Most “bruxism” appliances don’t fix the problem—they often make it worse.
In this powerful and eye-opening virtual course, AAFE President and Expert Clinician Dr. Louis Malcmacher reveals why traditional bruxism appliances are outdated, how they can actually increase patient pain and risk, and how modern esthetic injectables and advanced diagnostics can help you treat these patients faster, safer, and more effectively than ever before.
You’ll learn how to identify the true causes of bruxism, accurately classify each case, and use proven, evidence-based injectable techniques to provide lasting relief—without relying on bulky appliances that frustrate patients and limit practice growth.
💎 What You’ll Learn
✅ Why “Bruxism Appliances” Don’t Exist
Discover why the concept of a “bruxism appliance” is a myth and how most splints, trays, and night guards are designed for protection, not prevention—and why that’s a big problem for both patient outcomes and your bottom line.
✅ The Hidden Health Risks of Bruxism Appliances
Learn how every “bruxism appliance,” whitening tray, denture, and even posterior restoration can increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and hypertension if you don’t understand one critical diagnostic factor.
✅ When Appliances Worsen Myofascial Pain
Understand the anatomy and physiology behind muscle overactivity and see which types of “protective” appliances can actually make pain, clenching, and dysfunction worse.
✅ How to Diagnose Class 1, 2, and 3 Bruxism
Finally, learn how to properly classify bruxism.
If you don’t know what class your patient has—how can you treat what you don’t understand? Dr. Malcmacher breaks down the AAFE’s practical diagnostic framework for accurate, fast, in-office assessment.
