Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Positioning Accuracy and Efficiency Using a Dental Compass.

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This study is being performed to determine if the use of the Dental Compass Articular and its software will produce therapeutic splints for TMD accurately and successfully, compare favorably with a cohort treated without the Dental Compass (for number of visits, splint modifications, and required CBCTs).
