| Trauma to the teeth can be transmitted
to the supporting structures, which get damaged. This
can cause mobility of the teeth. Such mobile teeth may
require splinting for a specified period of time till
the supporting tissues heal and the tooth becomes stable.
Splinting is a procedure where the teeth are supported
in its position for a period of time. This is done to
teeth that are traumatized or teeth whose supporting
structures are affected by disease, which prevents them
from supporting the teeth. Splinting involves binding
a group of teeth together so that the biting forces
are shared by a large number of teeth instead of being
born by the affected tooth.
Fiber SplintingExtremely thin fiber-glass band (0.05
mm / .0019") to be used with our Fiber-Bond or
any light-cured bonding agents. The band is 4mm wide,
which gives 30% more adhesion power to the interdental
area. Indicated for periodontally loosened teeth, post-traumatic
mobility, surgical reimplantation, or even to reinforce
temporary bridges. It can also be used as splinting
material for orthodontic stabilization. Strength with
a certain degree of flexibility and “tooth hugging”
quality combine for an overall aesthetic and functional
result. Minimum tooth preparation.
High patient acceptance. |
