immediate denture According to Glossary of Prosthodontics terms It is a partial or complete denture, that’s fabricated to replace natural teeth immediately after extraction
The patient who requires a single denture opposing a natural or restored dentition challenges the clinician even more than the completely edentulous patient does. This is due to the biomechanical differences in the supporting tissues of the opposing arches. So a proper evaluation, correction of the existing factors and proper sequence of denture construction is necessary to give a more stable prosthesis.

Use and abuse of bite splint.
1. Use and Abuse of Bite
Splints
Presented by:
Alaa Abd Elsalam
Under supervision of:
Prof.Dr.Maher Fouda
2. INTRODUCTION
A bite splint (also called bite
plane,deprogrammer, intraoral
orthotic, night guard, occlusal
splint) is a removable appliance,
usually fabricated of acrylic or
composite, most often designed
to cover all the occlusal and
incisal surfaces of the teeth in the
upper or lower jaw.
3. Main Reasons For Bite Splint
Treatment
1. To protect the teeth from
excessive abrasion in patients
with bruxism .
2. To treat patients with internal TMJ derangement and other
TMDs with associated pain symptoms, such as tension
headache and cervical-, neck-, and oral/facial pain.
4. 3. To protect the TMJ disks
from dysfunctional forces
that may lead to perforations
or permanent displacements.
4. To improve jaw-muscle function
and to relieve associated pain by
creating a stable balanced
occlusion.
5. 5. They can be used to make
reversible changes in the
occlusion, to stabilize unstable
occlusion and eliminate
occlusal interferences.
6. To test the effect of changes in
occlusion on the TMJ and jaw
muscle function before
extensive restorative treatment.
6. Splint Material
• In the past several metal materials were used to fabricate
bite splints including gold, silver, even lead .
• Most splints today are made using heat- or light-cured
acrylic.
• Using light-cured composite, a splint can be made and
delivered about 1 hour after the casts have been mounted in
an articulator.
7. • Some patients prefer the cushion effect created by the soft
acrylic.
• A vacuum-formed soft vinyl "night guard" is easy to fabricate.
However, it needs careful adjustment and supervision to avoid
unwanted results .
8. Location
• Without specific reasons for a mandibular placement, such as
deep curve of Spee or substantial loss of mandibular teeth, some
clinicians prefer the splint to be made for the upper jaw.
•If teeth are missing, the splint is usually made in the jaw where most
teeth are lost.
•If molars and premolars are missing in both jaws, it may be advisable
to make both an upper and a lower splint or to first restore occlusion
in at least one jaw with prosthodontic reconstruction.
9. Usage
• Non-conservative splints that often have to be worn 24
hours a day should not be used for more than 4 to 6 weeks to
avoid the risk of irreversible occlusal changes.
• Bite splints should be looked on as temporary solutions to be used
only until a final diagnosis has been made and a curative treatment
has been successfully performed .
10. • Patients who have conservative bite splints prescribed
because of parafunctional motor activities like bruxism,
clenching, and tongue pressure mainly use their splints only
during sleep.
•However, those who can not control such habits when awake might
need to use the splint during the day also.
11. Main Types Of Splints
A.Conservative splints
B.Non-conservative splint
12. A.Conservative splints
1.Michigan- Type Splint
• If properly designed and
adjusted, this splint is
effective as a diagnostic and
treatment device.
• It is usually placed in the upper jaw covering all the maxillary
teeth, giving the supporting cusps of the opposing mandibular
teeth and the edges of the mandibular incisal teeth balanced, even
contacts with the splint at habitual closure.
13. • Cuspid guidance is created to provide a
rise in lateral and protrusive movements,
so that all man-dibular teeth, except the
cuspids, are discluded at protrusive and
lateral movements.
•
14. •This splint is not a flat
occlusal splint and it does
not have incisal guidance.
• It reduces muscle
hyperactivity, thereby helping
the condyles to reposition in a
way that promotes healing of
internal TMJ structures.
15. 2.Plane Splints.
• For esthetic reasons, some
patients may prefer to have splints
without cuspid guidance.
• Balanced contacts with all opposing
supporting cusps are mandatory but some
clinicians believe that better results are
achieved if the contacts between the
incisors and the splint are very light or
even removed.
16. • Thin splints are often too
fragile for heavy bruxers .
• Thicker splints may also be made
to compensate for "reduced
vertical".
17. 3.Bite Splint According To Shore
• This splint has a design similar to the conventional plane
splint but does not extend onto the facial or buccal surfaces
of the teeth and it covers the entire palatal area.
• For esthetic reasons, it may be preferred by some patients
who need to use the splint during the day because it can be
made less visible.
18. 4.Sved Plate.
• Only the opposing anterior teeth
make contact with this splint .
• It is recommended for patients
with acute or chronic muscle pain if
the plane splint is ineffective .
• The Sved plate is usually placed on the
upper teeth.
• It is mostly used only at night and not more
than 10 to 12 hours a day .
19. • There is a risk for intrusion of teeth, which has to be
explained to the patient before delivery .
20. 5.Gelb Splint
• The Gelb appliance is made in the
lower jaw, covering only the premolar
and molar teeth
• It is used to correct mandibular
displacement, reduce TMJ dysfunction
and oral/facial pain, and to provide
occlusal stability with the patient's
natural dentition serving as the anterior
guid-ance
21. • Some dentists fear that this splint can cause intrusion of the
posterior teeth.
22. 6.Distraction Splints
• The distraction splint, used by Pedersen et al to be helpful
in patients with disk displacement
• The proposed effect is that the condyles are pulled downward
upon clenching, thereby relieving traumatic load and giving the
disk freedom to reassume a normal position.
23. Intra-oral frontal without splint,
obviously the affected side is the
left side of the patient
Frontal, with the distraction
splint, that is increased gradually
only from the left side and has
firm occlusion on the right side.
View of the splint from the right
side shows the increased in height
left side.
24. 7.Repositioning splints
• Repositioning splints guide
the mandible into a position
different from (mostly anterior
to) the habitual one at closing. anterior repositioning splint
The thickness of the splint
• The purpose is to facilitate
repositioning of the TMJ disks
and to reduce the load on
retrodiscal pain-sensitive areas.
25. • These splints may be indicated
for short-term use to keep a disk
in a normal superior position .
26. • A repositioning splint is most often removable but can
be fixed .
• Such a splint, often called a cap splint, can be described as
an intermediary between a splint and a bridge.
• It is useful for temporary reconstruction before final
decision about design, vertical dimension, etc.
• It is often made in metal with the occlusal surface in hard
acrylic .
27. 8.Splints for protection of oral tissues
• The most common reason for
making a splint is to protect the
teeth from excessive abrasion in
bruxers .
• Several variations of splints are designed
to protect cheeks and the tongue in patients
with oral parafunctions (such as cheek
biting or tongue thrust).
Bruxism splint
28. • These patients may benefit
from a splint with extensions or
enlargements designed in a way
that keeps the cheeks from
being pinched or the tongue
from pressing against the
lingual surfaces of the teeth.
29. 9.Combination splints
• Missing teeth can easily be replaced
by adding artificial teeth to the splint.
• There are numerous combinations of
splint and orthodontic appliances.
• A removable bionator appliance can
act both as an orthodontic and as a
repositioning appliance .
• An “invisible retainer” can simultaneously
function as a soft acrylic splint.
30. TMJ tissues may swell or shrink during different stages
of the disease period. So, repeated adjustments of the splints
may have to be made for quite long periods.
Sources of Errors in Bite Splint
Treatment
Time of use: Conservative splints have a minimal risk of
causing permanent changes in occlusion .
• The risks increase when splints are made to guide the
mandible into an advanced position. Those splints can cause
irreversible, possibly harmful changes if used for longer
than a few (4 to 6) weeks without adequate supervision.
31. Location:
• Using splints designed to have
contact with only some of the
opposing teeth for longer than 4 to 6
weeks may lead to extrusion of some
teeth and/or intrusion of other teeth,
depending on where the contacts are.
• Splints with contacts only in the
molar regions may cause intrusion of
the posterior teeth .
32. • Splints in which the only contacts
are with the incisors may cause an
anterior open bite .
• Long term use of such splints
should not be prescribed without
first trying other possible remedies.
It may be the treatment of choice
when everything else fails and the
patient suffers from chronic pain.
33. Bite splint fabrication :
• If using alginate, the
impressions should be poured
immediately, never waiting
more than 1 to 2 minutes, to
avoid dimensional changes.
• A high quality stone must be used
and mixed with the right proportions
of powder and water.
34. Bite registration:
• The wax should not extend
onto the facial surfaces of the
anterior teeth because it is
important to compare how the
teeth are aligned with and
without the check bite in place
.
35. Unless there is a specific reason based on the diagnosis,
the dentist should make only minimal changes of vertical
dimention.
Extensions onto the facial surfaces of the incisors should be
avoided as there is a risk of preventing lipseal, which may induce
mouth breathing during sleep.
• If needed to improve retention, this can be achieved by
adding simple ball clasps in the molar or premolar areas or
by adding acrylic or composite in the molar interproximal
areas on the lingual of the appliance.
36. It is a common mistake to let bite splint treatment drag on for
years without making appropriate referrals.
• If the patient has persistent oral parafunctions or if the splint
changes the occlusion in a desirable way, the dentist should
discuss a permanent restoration.
• A patient may be used to and even dependant on the splint,
which then functions as a psychological "crutch". The
dentist should try to resolve the patient's problems with
alternative treatments and by appropriate referrals.
