1. An apparatus (1) for temporomandibular joint-related corrections of tooth position, taking into account a variant of the registration or construction of the bite predetermined by a user, comprising:
a base module (2) extending at least on an occlusion-bearing part of one side of the jaw, the base module (2) being supported in an intermaxillary manner and having cavities to accommodate teeth, so that tension forces necessary for tooth movements can act on the teeth (22), the base module (2) having a three-dimensionally defined jaw support (5) designed in accordance with specifications of the user, the jaw support (5) being formed by bite blocks (10) and/or interceptors (11) that have cavities filled with a filling material (12) of predeterminable elasticity for vertical corrections of the alveolar processes, the base module (2) having a base clip (27) covering at least one tooth crown (28), the base clip (27) having a functional hollow body (29) facing an opposing jaw as part of the bite block (10) or the interceptor (11), the functional hollow body (29) being filled with the filling material (12), the filling material (12) including a soft elastic filling material (12) to allow intrusion, and an extremely hard filling material (12) to prevent intrusion of the underlying tooth, and the functional hollow body (29) having a circumferential pressure transfer ring (30) facing the occlusion surface of the covered tooth crown (28). |
