Several methods, both extracoronal and intracoronal, are available to splint teeth together. The simplest way to connect teeth to each other is the classic bonding method. The enamel surface of the tooth is etched, most commonly with a 37% solution of phosphoric acid.

Bonded restorations, especially fiber-reinforced composites (FRC), have been proposed for internal splinting of such teeth. It is documented that the fibrous assemblies can increase the effective fracture strength of the teeth.

A hopeless tooth from a periodontal point of view, with severe bone resorption, mobility and abnormal tooth migration, is often extracted. In advanced cases, function and esthetics are impaired, and an interdisciplinary treatment is requested.

This article examines the rationale and technique for placing an intracoronal esthetic splint when full coverage restorations are no indicated or desired. This type of splint using bondable ceramic ropes is imperceptible both visually and to the patient's tongue, lips, and cheeks proprioceptively.

An intracoronal technique for semipermanent splinting of mobile or migrating teeth is described and clinically evaluated. Circumferential grooves of 1 to 1.5 mm depth were cut into the enamel in the occlusal third of the teeth to be splinted.

Jan 1, 1999 · Stabilization of a severely periodontally compromised tooth when more definitive treatment is not possible-a reinforced ribbon and resin or intracoronal wire and resin splint is indicated. In this situation, with stable abutments, the root of the compromised tooth may be removed, and the splint may function as a bridge with the natural crown as ...

Jan 1, 1999 · He described the intracoronal wire and acrylic splint in teeth with preexisting amalgam restorations. A groove or channel was created in these amalgam restorations, then wire was stabilized using self-cure acrylic resin in the prepared channel.

Splinting mobile teeth is a choice to improve the patient's oral comfort. The purpose of this study was to assess the survival and stability of mobile anterior mandibular teeth after splinting in patients with periodontitis undergoing supportive periodontal therapy (SPT).

Several methods, both extracoronal and intracoronal, are available to splint teeth together. The simplest way to connect teeth to each other is the classic bonding method. The enamel surface of the tooth is etched, most commonly with a 37% solution of phosphoric acid.

Jan 1, 1999 · This type of provisional provides a number of advantages, including (1) temporary stabilization of mobile teeth and improved occlusal relationships before, during, and after periodontal therapy; (2) immediate improvement in esthetics; (3) allowance for removal and replacement of hopeless teeth; (4) pulpal protection of prepared abutments; and ...
