Splinting of teeth

As a result of moderate to severe periodontitis, tooth mobility may occur. This problem begins with atrophy of bone tissue greater than 1/3 of the length of the tooth root. The degree of tooth mobility is directly related to the amount of atrophy. One of the modern methods of eliminating this problem is splinting of teeth.

What is splinting

Splinting of mobile teeth is a periodontitis treatment method, the purpose of which is to strengthen teeth with I-III degree mobility. Thanks to the procedure, not only the chewing function is preserved, but also the aesthetics of the smile. The procedure is prescribed after a visual examination and the results of radiography.

Shining is carried out:

• in combination with other methods;
• together with the restoration and closing of diaeresis;
• on the frontal group of teeth of the upper and lower jaws;
• to eliminate the mobility of the posterior teeth

Indications for splinting teeth

There are a number of indications for a splinting procedure:

• periodontitis;
• displacement of the dentition;
• altered arrangement of teeth as a result of deformation;
• exposure of the roots of the teeth;
• prominence of gum pockets.

Materials used for splinting

The main requirement when choosing a material for long-term splinting is its biocompatibility with tissues. And, of course, matching the shade to the natural color of the teeth. The clinic of aesthetic dentistry “PRIZMA” uses the Dentapreg system.

Dentapreg are flexible, adhesive fiberglass filaments impregnated with a light-curing resin. After exposure to the filaments of a photopolymer LED lamp, the material becomes rigid, durable and invisible.

It’s important to know

Splinting teeth with fiberglass is a long-term solution to the problem, provided that the doctor’s recommendations are followed correctly. Every six months it is necessary to visit the dentist for a preventive examination.

In the case when there are no chewing teeth, it is necessary to carry out prosthetics before splinting to normalize the bite. Otherwise, there is a very high risk of tire failure due to overloading of the front splinted teeth.
