The NTI OmniSplint® migraine prevention device is an anterior disclusion device proven effective at preventing tension headaches and migraines. Its patented design keeps the posterior teeth and canines out of occlusion, which reduces clenching intensity and protects against tooth damage and bone loss.
The Migraine Relief Your Patients Have Been Waiting For
The new NTI OmniSplint minimizes clenching and bruxing intensity through a full-arch design. By covering both arches, the NTI OmniSplint provides patients with a comfortable solution for their migraines or tension headaches while eliminating all concerns of aspiration, supereruption of the posterior teeth, or long-term use.
The NTI-tss Plus® (Nociceptive Trigeminal Inhibition Tension Suppression System) migraine prevention device also serves as a drug-free alternative treatment to migraine pain. With over 30 million people in the U.S. suffering from migraines, dental clinicians have an opportunity to help their patients get out of pain.1 The device has been cleared by the FDA for the prevention of migraine and tension-type headaches and has been shown to reduce clenching forces by approximately 70%. In one study, 82% of migraine sufferers experienced a 77% reduction in migraine events when using the NTI-tss Plus.2
NTI devices are especially valuable for patients who are pregnant or nursing, or those with medical complications who cannot accept pharmacological migraine treatments. An NTI device may be indicated for patients who experience possible symptoms of tension headaches, migraines, TMD, tooth wear from clenching, or muscle pain associated with parafunction.

Reduces Clenching and Migraine Frequency
The NTI OmniSplint and the NTI-tss Plus have been shown to reduce clenching forces by approximately 70%. When wearing the NTI-tss Plus regularly, 82% of migraine sufferers experienced a 77% reduction in migraine events.3
High Success Rate
Users report a high degree of success with the appliance for treatment of orofacial pain.4 Additionally, prescribers use the device for both pain control and protection of teeth and restorations.
Alternative to Pharmacological Treatment
After using the NTI, wearers reported the same reduced pain level as individuals who used a common migraine medication, Depakote®.5 The benefit of prescribing an NTI over a pharmacological treatment is the device’s lack of harmful side effects that may manifest in patients taking prescription medications.

Prescribing an NTI device for your patient is more than just offering a trusted solution to their problems — it’s about securing a patient for life. When you relieve someone of their chronic migraine pain, you dramatically transform their life for the better, and that’s something every dentist should want to be a part of.
