Small Device. Big Difference.
The Urbanek Device fits comfortably between the front teeth and gently separates the back teeth. This takes pressure off the jaw joint so the inflammation that causes TMD symptoms can settle.
Custom-made from impressions of your teeth
Not a nightguard: an FDA-cleared medical device
Comfortable to wear, easy to keep up with
Prescribed together with the Urbanek Protocol
How do I know if it’s TMD?
TMD Is More Than Just Jaw Pain…
Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD or TMJD) shows up in more ways than just clicking or tightness in the jaw. About one in four people (45% of women) live with symptoms like these, often without knowing the cause.
Headaches & migraines
Tinnitus (ear ringing)
Earaches
Dizziness/vertigo
Subjective hearing loss
Jaw/neck pain
Shoulder & upper back pain
Arm, hand, finger tingling/numbness

Clinical assessment
After an evaluation, your provider takes impressions to build your custom device.

Fitting your device
Once it is ready, your provider will ensure it fits properly and prescribe the Urbanek Protocol.

Relief
Most patients observe a substantial reduction in symptoms within two weeks and see improvements continuing to develop with consistent wear over the next several months.
