Скачать или смотреть Why the Protocol Matters More Than the Device

Everyone has excuses.
Excuses are just justifications for not doing what you know you’re supposed to do.

And with TMD treatment, patient compliance is critical.

The results we expect — and the results we’ve proven — only happen when the protocol is followed.

There’s independent university data on over 5,000 TMD patients showing this clearly:
👉 Unload the joint → inflammation resolves → symptoms go away.

That doesn’t happen by accident.

The Protocol

• 24/7 for two months
• Then nighttime only for life

And here’s the key point 👇
👉 The protocol is more important than the device.

Patients often think:

“It’s all about the device.”

It’s not.

The device matters because:
• It’s comfortable
• It’s wearable
• It separates the back teeth
• It reduces joint load to about 10%

But 90% of TMJ load comes from the posterior teeth.

The device simply enables unloading.
Compliance is what makes it work.

This requires something many patients don’t like to hear:
👉 Personal responsibility.

This isn’t swallowing a pill and hoping for the best.
It’s using the device correctly and consistently.

For doctors, this matters too 👇
If the patient doesn’t follow the protocol:
• Don’t blame yourself
• Don’t blame the device

It’s not a failure of treatment.
It’s a failure of compliance.

This is their joint.
Their symptoms.
Their responsibility.

The protocol works — when it’s followed.
