Fiber reinforced Splinting of mobile & weak teeth
Dr. Binu Mathew BDS (Senior Dental Practitioner at Advanced Dental Care)
It is a challenge to retain the periodontally affected teeth with mobility even after a deep scaling or flap surgery. The stabilization of teeth is an important factor for the improvement of the condition. The newest materials like Everstick Perio splint by GC Company is one of the best.
Saving of mobile or loose teeth: This case is the fiber reinforced splinting of mobile lower anterior teeth after deep scaling and root planning. This will greatly improve the healing process, and the material used for splinting the teeth is so strong that it can last for years while preventing any damage or dislodgement of teeth and helping the patient to properly clean the interdental areas.
This method is of immense help to patients who have weak or partly loose anterior teeth and cannot take it as a support when they want to replace a missing adjacent tooth permanently. We have been doing similar cases successfully for the past 7 years and it needs minimum adjustments later.
