Abstract
Establishing a stable or proper occlusion enhances the retention of teeth and the maintenance of periodontal health. Mobile teeth with good periodontium can be managed alone with occlusal equilibration; whereas mobile teeth with compromised periodontium can be stabilized by using splints. Splinting increases the life expectancy of loose teeth by providing support for the periodontium to reconnect as well as improving comfort, function, and aesthetics. From ancient times splinting has been used to control the tooth mobility but still it remains poorly understood and disputable areas of dental therapy. This article discusses splinting, its principles, rationale, indication, contraindication, prerequisite, history, and classification.
