According to inventor Harold Gelb, D.M.D. and co-author of Killing Pain Without Prescription, Gelb says: “As therapy continues and your muscles relax, the position of the jaw might change approximately every three weeks. The attending dentist should accommodate the shift in the jaw balance by grinding down or building up the appliance to adjust the bite. After several months, the position of the jaw and the bite should stabilize. At this point phase 2 options should be considered.”
