In 1908, Moritz Karolyi, a Viennese dentist, described bruxism as \u201ctraumatic neuralgia\u201d and stated \u201cit was the cause of a periodontal condition called pyorrhea (periodontitis).\u201d He most likely fabricated the first occlusal guard and we have been using the design of ever since. Isn\u2019t it time for a new design? In July of 2019 the FDA cleared The POD\u00ae, using Unilateral BiteBlock Technology\u00ae for bruxism and TMD. The POD\u00ae is a patent pending custom fit, laboratory fabricated intraoral mandibular splint designed to aid in treating clenching, grinding (Bruxism) and TMJ dysfunction. Worn during sleep the device serves to protect the teeth, crowns, veneers, and restorations from the destructive forces of bruxism and will help alleviate headaches, TMJ and muscle pain.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a857576 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"a857576\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c7d3a87 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c7d3a87\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c3676a5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c3676a5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c860259 e-con-full elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c860259\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4586937 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4586937\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcefa8f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fcefa8f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9f8f9f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b9f8f9f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4178db clean-paragraph elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c4178db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"carivu\" class=\"x-section e3938-e18 m31e-1 m31e-3 m31e-7 m31e-8 m31e-b\"><div class=\"x-row e3938-e19 m31e-f m31e-h m31e-i m31e-j m31e-n\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e3938-e25 m31e-y m31e-z m31e-10 m31e-11 m31e-13 m31e-d x-effect-enter\" data-x-effect=\"{&quot;scroll&quot;:true,&quot;offsetTop&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;offsetBottom&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;behaviorScroll&quot;:&quot;fire-once&quot;}\"><div class=\"x-div e3938-e26 m31e-1u m31e-1w\"><div class=\"x-row x-container max width e3938-e27 m31e-f m31e-g m31e-h m31e-j m31e-p\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e3938-e28 m31e-y m31e-z m31e-17\"><div class=\"x-text x-content e3938-e30 m31e-1j m31e-1k m31e-1n m31e-1p\"><div id=\"carivu\" class=\"x-section e3944-e27 m31k-1 m31k-3 m31k-7 m31k-8 m31k-b\"><div class=\"x-row e3944-e28 m31k-f m31k-h m31k-i m31k-j m31k-o\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e3944-e34 m31k-s m31k-t m31k-u m31k-v m31k-x m31k-d x-effect-enter\" data-x-effect=\"{&quot;scroll&quot;:true,&quot;offsetTop&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;offsetBottom&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;behaviorScroll&quot;:&quot;fire-once&quot;}\"><div class=\"x-div e3944-e35 m31k-1t m31k-1v\"><div class=\"x-row x-container max width e3944-e36 m31k-f m31k-g m31k-h m31k-j m31k-q\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e3944-e37 m31k-s m31k-t m31k-13\"><div class=\"x-text x-content e3944-e39 m31k-1i m31k-1j m31k-1m m31k-1o\"><p>By having the dental arches out of contact, there is a reduction of trigeminal innervated muscular activity.

The Unilateral BiteBlock Technology\u00ae provides a reduced area of contact and can reduce the forces which could be harmful to our TMJ. This helps to protect our teeth and restorations from the destructive forces of bruxism. Does your jaw make sounds? Do you have headaches? Is your sleep disturbed? You may suffer from TMJ dysfunction and may benefit from The POD\u00ae.

The material that is used is carefully matched with your smile for a flawless finish. The composite resin is applied to the tooth, and smoothed into place to blend flawlessly with your natural smile. A special curing light is used to harden the material, keeping it firmly in place. Caring for your new bonding is as easy as brushing and flossing your teeth. You can expect years with a beautiful smile, and can have the bonding redone over time if it begins to wear or show signs of damage.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9f83c7 clean-paragraph elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b9f83c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"x-main full\" role=\"main\"><article id=\"post-3944\" class=\"post-3944 page type-page status-publish hentry no-post-thumbnail\"><div class=\"entry-content content\"><div id=\"cs-content\" class=\"cs-content\"><div id=\"dentairvac\" class=\"x-section e3944-e40 m31k-0 m31k-1 m31k-3 m31k-4 m31k-5 m31k-9 m31k-c\"><div class=\"x-row x-container max width e3944-e41 m31k-f m31k-g m31k-h m31k-j m31k-r\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e3944-e42 m31k-s m31k-t m31k-d x-effect-enter\" data-x-effect=\"{&quot;scroll&quot;:true,&quot;offsetTop&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;offsetBottom&quot;:&quot;10%&quot;,&quot;behaviorScroll&quot;:&quot;fire-once&quot;}\"><div class=\"x-text x-content e3944-e44 m31k-1j m31k-1m m31k-1n m31k-1p\"><p>If you think you might need or benefit from bonding, call our office today, and we will be happy to further assist you.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/article><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca2adee e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ca2adee\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8dcbb09 elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"8dcbb09\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"page\" data-elementor-id=\"153\" class=\"elementor elementor-153\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-742e5389 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"742e5389\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57be0457 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"57be0457\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ecce4c4 elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ecce4c4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Our Patient Testimonials\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-56594400 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"56594400\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c27f799 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7c27f799\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f2ccbdb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5f2ccbdb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"327\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/varadah.com\/keasmile\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/img_1.png.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-54\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/varadah.com\/keasmile\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/img_1.png.webp 327w, https:\/\/varadah.com\/keasmile\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/img_1.png-300x289.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 327px) 100vw, 327px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28ba2e1c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"28ba2e1c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-115279d5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"115279d5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><div class=\"kea-testimonial-master-wrapper\"><div class=\"testimonial-right-slider\">\n            <div class=\"testi-content-item\">\n                <p class=\"testi-desc\">\"Dr. Ghosh &amp; her staff are great working as a team.
