- 4. Introduction
Periodontal disease results in destruction of the attachment apparatus
causing uneven distribution of occlusal forces resulting in additional
damage to the alveolar bone.
Occlusal adjustment, periodontal and restorative dentistry may alter
occlusal relationship and redirect forces thereby reducing traumatism.
This may result in teeth becoming firmer. Increasing the support of the
tooth may also increase their firmness; the device used for such
treatment is the Splint.

- 5. History
The first documented splinting of teeth for the treatment of jaw bone
fractures took place in Egypt in the 16th century B.C.
Hippocrates, (born 460 B.C.) used the occlusal relationship of the teeth
for the assessment of mandibular deviations and used gold wires and
linen threads to splint teeth.
Intermaxillary fixation (IMF) used for the immobilization of jaw bone
fractures was first described in a handwritten manuscript in the 14th
century A.D. but was forgotten until its revival at in the end of the 19th
century.

II. Teeth splinting :
History
A Phoenician mandible from 500BC found in modern day Lebanon
which has two carved ivory teeth attached to four natural teeth by
gold wire.
Findings from digging of Egyptians (3000 -2500 B.C.) show similar
gold wiring.
Albucasis, a Spanish physician who lived in the 10th and 11th centuries
used gold, silver or silken ligatures for the fixation of loosened teeth.
The first description of an arch bar splint, a bent metal arch ligated to the
teeth, was provided by a London dentist, Hamtnond, in 1871.

- 7. Definitions
'The definition of a dental splint as introduced by the American Association
of Endodontics (1984) is:
‘A rigid or flexible device or compound used to support, protect or
immobilize teeth that have been loosened, replanted, fractured or
subjected to certain endodontic surgical procedures‘.
The Glossary of Prosthodontic terms defines Splinting (1999) as:
1) A rigid or flexible device that maintains in position a displaced or
movable part; also used to keep in place and protect an injured part.
2) A rigid or flexible material used to protect, immobilize or resist motion
in a part.

- 8. According to Glossary of periodontal terms (2001):
SPLINT: Any apparatus, appliance, or device employed to prevent
motion or displacement of fractured or movable parts.
DENTAL SPLINT: An appliance designed to immobilize and
stabilize loose teeth.
Esther M. Wilkins (8th edition):
Dental splint : designed to immobilise and stabilise teeth in the same
arch.
Grant (6th edition):
Splint is an appliance that joins one or more teeth to provide support

- 9. Aims of splinting
Rest is created for the
supporting tissues,
permitting repair of trauma
Mobility is reduced
immediately & it is hoped,
permanently. In particular
jiggling movements are
reduced of eliminated
Forces received by any one
tooth are redistributed to a
number of teeth
Provisional contacts are
stabilized and food
impaction (but not
retention) is prevented
Migration and over-
eruption are prevented

- 13. Ideal requisites of a dental splint
It should
incorporate as
many firm teeth as
necessary to reduce
the extra-load on
individual teeth to
a minimum
It should hold
the teeth rigid
and not impose
torsional stresses
on any
incorporated
teeth
It should extend
around the arch,
so that antero-
posterior forces &
faciolingual forces
are counteracted
It should not
interfere with the
occlusion.

irritate the
pulp
Should not
irritate the soft
tissues, gingiva,
cheeks, lips or
tongue

- 15. Indications of splinting
Tarnow and Fletcher 1986
- To stabilize moderate to advanced tooth mobility that cannot be
reduced by other means that has not responded to occlusal
adjustment and periodontal therapy.
-Stabilize teeth in secondary occlusal trauma.
-Stabilize teeth after orthodontic movement.
-Stabilize teeth with increased tooth mobility, which interfere with
normal masticatory function.
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 16. -Stabilize teeth after acute dental trauma i.e., subluxation,
avulsion etc.
- Facilitates scaling and surgical procedures.
-Prevent tipping and drifting of teeth.
-Prevent extrusion of unopposed teeth
- Cross- arch stabilization
- Control bruxism
- In case of vertical bite collapse, restore the vertical dimension
of occlusion
Indications of splinting
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 17. Intracoronal splint specific indications
1) Dentition with deep overbite
2) Teeth with very short roots or resorbed roots
3) To evaluate potential abutment teeth
4) Teeth with root amputations & mobility
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 18. Contraindications of splinting
Moderate to severe tooth mobility in the presence of periodontal
inflammation
Insufficient number of firm teeth to stabilize mobile teeth
Patient not maintaining oral hygiene
Prior occlusal adjustment not done on teeth with occlusal trauma or
occlusal interferences
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 19. Advantages
May establish final
stability and comfort
for patient with
occlusal trauma
Helpful to decrease
mobility and accelerate
healing following
acute trauma to the
teeth
Allows remodelling of
alveolar bone and
periodontal ligament
for orthodontically,
splinted teeth
Helping in decreasing
mobility favouring
regenerative therapy
Distributes occlusal
forces over a wide area
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 20. Disadvantages
Hygienic
Accumulation of
plaque at the
splinted margins
can lead to
further
periodontal
breakdown in a
patient with
already
compromised
periodontal
support
Mechanical
Splint being rigid
may act as a lever
with uneven
distribution of
forces.
If one tooth of the
splint is in
traumatic
occlusion, it can
injure the
periodontium of all
the teeth within
the splint
Biological
Development of
caries is an
unavoidable risk
and thus,
requires
excellent
maintenance by
the patient

•A non- noble metal is usually used because of the strength of its bonding to Metabond &
its high strength in thin section.
•It is electrolytically or chemically etched, air abraded & cemented with Metabond.
•It has greater inherent strength than a composite-resin splint created intraorally.
•Grooves, pins & parallel preparations increase its retentive capacity.

- 39. Kegel W, Selipsky H, Phillips C. (1979) - Assessed if intracoronal wire-and-
acrylic splint aided in the reduction of posterior tooth mobility Chronic
periodontitis patients during initial therapy and concluded that, the reduction
in the mobility of teeth splinted during the entire therapy period did not differ
from the reduction observed in the unsplinted segments. The reduction in
tooth mobility observed in both the splinted and unsplinted segments over the
17-week period can be attributed to the improved occlusal relationships and
reduction in inflammation.
Galler C, Selipsky H, Phillips C, Ammons WF Jr (1979) - Assessed if fixed
intraoral wire and acrylic splints had advantages with respect to tooth
mobility, bone level and attachment level over unsplinted teeth following
osseous surgery. They concluded that, the splinted and unsplinted segments
reacted similarly throughout the study; splinting did not significantly reduce
the mobility of individual teeth. Pre- and postsurgical bone and gingival
attachment levels were also similar for the splinted and unsplinted segments.

Study Results
P. Preethe Paddmanabhan, S.C.
Chandrasekaran, V. Ramya,
Manisundar (2012)
Splinting if well placed and
maintained under patients
compliance, and on removal helps to
reduce mobility and gives stability.
The advantage of stainless steel metal
wire bonded with composite splinting
is it quick and easy to adapt and
removal of the splint is easy, good
vertical flexibility & controls tooth
mobility.
The advantage of fiber reinforced
composite splinting is that
aesthetically pleasing, low level of
fracture frequency. More superior
than any other type of splinting.

Study Result
Sekhar LC, Koganti VP, Shankar
BR, Gopinath A (2011)
Splint had a promising and beneficial
effects on anterior teeth exhibiting
Grade I to Grade II degrees of mobility.
Splinting is recommended as an
adjunct to periodontal surgery in the
treatment of hypermobile teeth,
especially in cases where patient
discomfort is a prominent factor.
Also Ribbond Ribbon reinforced with
composite resin was an excellent
material for application, patient
comfort, resistance to fracture,
biocompatable and esthetic
acceptability as compared to stainless
steel wire with composite.

using a specific
carbonate bone
replacement graft (BRG)
material.
Pre- splint
group
Post splint
group
Non- splint

The less favourable improvement
in periodontal function of
postsplint or nonsplint teeth
seemed to be due to the loss of
BRG material caused by tooth
mobility. These results indicate
that an undisturbed wound healing
process using BRG together with
tooth stability is beneficial to
overall clinical success.

- 43. Splinting related studies
Machtei and Schallhorn (1999)- recommended that
very mobile teeth be splinted prior to GTR in class II
furcation defects.

- 46. Characteristic features
1) Serve to stabilize a permanently mobile dentition from the time of
initial tooth preparation until the time the dentition is periodontally
stable enough for permanent restorations.
2) Provides stability, occlusal function and a good esthetic result.
3) Allows the dentist to determine the optimum esthetic and functional
design to be incorporated into the future permanent splint.
4) Allows flexibility in case of future tooth loss.
5) Can be placed any time after initial periodontal therapy is complete.
6) If the splint is seated using temporary cement, it can be removed
during periodontal treatment, thus facilitating access to the root
surfaces.

- 47. All acrylic provisional splint
-Most common form of provisional splint
- Fabricated from:
1) Premade shell or
2) Directly done at chair side
- Limitation – marginal adaptation
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 48. Adapted metal bands with acrylic
-Amsterdam and Fox have described the use of copper or gold bands fitted
exactly to the subgingival termination of prepared teeth and then
incorporated into self-curing acrylic.
-This technique fulfills all the objectives of a provisional restoration in that
an exact marginal fit is achieved for caries-control and pulpal protection.
-Also, protective sub-gingival and supragingival coronal forms are more
easily obtained, thus helping to achieve and maintain the health of the
gingival tissue.
-Because of the added strength of the metal bands, frequent removal of the
splints for various operative procedures (that is, impressions, coping
transfers, assemblages) will not cause the splints to warp or the margins to
become distorted. Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 50. Objectives
- Permanent splints are fabricated after periodontal treatment
has been completed, when their use will extend the functional
lifetime of teeth.
- It is indicated whenever periodontal treatment does not reduce
mobility to the point at which the teeth can function without
added support.
- These devices serve to : -
(i) Stabilize loose teeth
(ii) Redistribute occlusal forces
(iii)Reduce traumatism
(iv)Aid in the repair of the periodontal tissues

- 51. Swing lock appliance
Useful in situations in which fixed splinting is not possible or desirable:
Eg: In advanced age, in poor physical or mental status, or when prognosis is
questionable, or when dentist chooses to avoid full coverage.
Overcome the disadvantage of labial continuous clasping
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 52. Overdenture
-Few teeth with questionable prognoses remain, an overdenture may be
used.
- Teeth are treated endodontically, then are shortened close to the gums
and fitted with a round nonanatomic gold dome, which may incorporate
retention device.
- A full or partial denture is then constructed over these remaining
abutments.
Advantages Disadvantages
Favourable crown root ratio &
retention of alveolar bone around roots.
Long term use :-
- High incidence of recurrent periodontal
disease
- Prosthetic or endodontic failure

Fixed permanent devices may incorporate a
series of soldered castings, such as crowns,
three – quarter crowns, telescope crowns,
inlays, horizontal pin splints spin ledges. Splint
is cemented to place.
Full coverage is simple to perform (if recession
is not extensive and teeth are parallel)
otherwise inlays or pin ledges may be more
conserving of tooth structure and simpler to
use.
It is important that these splints be rigid .
Ideally the teeth and splint should be
reciprocally stabilized in all directions (i. e.,
mesial, distal, vestibules and apical).

- 72. Conclusion
Tooth splinting proves to be beneficial in several clinical
situations but, the overall objective is to create an environment
where tooth movement can be contained within physiologic
limits while restoring function and patient comfort.
Splinting teeth to each other allows weakened teeth to gain
support from neighbouring ones.
When used to connect periodontally compromised teeth,
splinting can increase patient comfort during chewing.
Copyright ©2021 Periowiki.com
- 73. However, splinting makes oral hygiene procedures difficult.
Therefore, to ensure the longevity of the connected teeth,
special attention must be given to instructing the patient
about enhanced measures for oral hygiene after placement
of the splint.
