Periodontal Splinting. Step towards counteracting multidirectional tooth mobility

      Аннотация: Periodontal disease is closely associated to tissue destruction that causes increased tooth mobility which if not intervened timely may lead to permanent tooth loss that affects both aesthetics and function. Periodontal splinting helps in redistributing the functional and parafunctional forces. Over years a variety of methods have been employed for this procedure yet decision making still remains difficult for clinicians. An attempt to perform splinting without adequate periodontal or occlusal analysis can often lead to misapplication of these procedures.
