Fig. 17.1 Several devices for the diagnosis or treatment of bruxism: personalised discharge
splints. Discharge splints (serial manufacture) (“Telefl ex Medical”, “DenTek Night Guard”, “Sleep
Right”). Incisive splints “NTI-tss”. “S-EMG” detectors (“Grindalert”, “BiteStrip”). Devices for
detection and treatment (biofeedback) (“BruxStop” with electrical alert and “Cycura” with acous-
tic alert)
To only depend on postgraduate programmes intended to supplement graduate
training in different branches of engineering, often in too specifi c aspects, can result
in a mistaken strategy, since it limits the job spectrum open to students, as is cur-
rently the case with various postgraduate courses in Bioengineering.
