The dental code for an orthodontic TMJ (temporomandibular joint) splint is typically represented by the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code 21079. This code specifically covers the fabrication of a splint for the management of TMJ disorders. However, it's important to verify with current coding resources or insurance providers, as codes may vary or be updated.
An occlusal splint is a dental appliance worn over the teeth to help with issues like teeth grinding, jaw clenching, or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. It functions by providing a barrier between the upper and lower teeth to protect them from damage and encourage proper jaw alignment. The splint is custom-made by a dentist and should be worn at night or as directed to alleviate symptoms and prevent further dental problems.

Possibly TMJ going on. This is very common. I see my chiropractor right after having dental work done, he makes sure the TMJ is not gong to be a problem. I also see my chiropractor an hour before a dental appt if I am having brace adjustment, bite splint or molds made, it makes sure the work is correctly lined up. I have the TMJ and wear a night splint. MAKE SURE YOUR DENTIST IS TOLD ABOUT THE PAIN. ~
