One of the main tasks of every dentist is to convey to his patients the idea of the need for regular examination, as well as prevention and timely treatment of various diseases of the tissue complex that surround the tooth and keep it in the alveolus. It is periodontal disease that is the most common among adults, and they manifest themselves in various forms.
According to most experts, the treatment of tissues around the tooth should be taken seriously, using a whole range of actions, consisting primarily of the proper maintenance of the oral cavity. To increase the effectiveness of treatment, surgical, therapeutic or orthopedic procedures are performed as necessary.
One of the most frequently used and effective methods of treatment is cable-stayed splinting of the tooth. As a rule, this operation is aimed at eliminating the mobility of the affected tooth or teeth. In general, splinting a tooth, as one of the methods of treating periodontal diseases, copes with its tasks perfectly, namely, it greatly reduces the likelihood that a bad tooth will fall out or that it will need to be removed.
If the patient has chronic inflammation of the periodontium or there is a likelihood of such a complication after any previous procedures, then splinting of the tooth becomes a necessity. Firstly, the tire is able to significantly reduce teething due to the rigidity of its structure. It prevents the increase in tooth mobility and, accordingly, their loss. Secondly, using splinting, you can redistribute the load exerted on the teeth during chewing. As a result, loose teeth will have a much lower load, which, in turn, contributes to their better healing. Here it should be taken into account that the efficiency of unloading of loose cranks depends on the number of healthy teeth involved.
Splinting of mobile teeth is most effective when the entire dentition is involved in the process, regardless of how many mobile and healthy elements are in it. When the tire is installed in this way, it takes the form of an arch, which has a much better effect on diseased teeth. Splinting a tooth with a linear design, that is, when only a few healthy teeth are involved in it, is slightly worse. To increase efficiency, for example splinting of molars, the process is performed symmetrically on both sides, and a so-called bridge is installed between the plates. However, as a rule, medical specialists try to consider each specific case separately, taking into account the characteristics of the patient's health and the characteristics of his disease.
There are times when the patient is fixed tires. Before making such a decision, the attending dentist should thoroughly study all the nuances, for example, such as the condition of the patient’s oral cavity, the presence or absence of plaque or stone, sore gums, tooth mobility and other characteristics. An absolute indication for the installation of a permanent tire is a pronounced looseness of the teeth. Sometimes, before splinting, the patient is recommended to undergo preliminary treatment of inflammatory processes in the oral cavity.
The severity of atrophy of the processes of the alveoli, the location of the loose teeth and the degree of their mobility greatly affects the choice and installation of a particular tire configuration. Depending on the results of the examination, the doctor uses removable and fixed prostheses, as well as in some cases their combinations. Splinting a tooth greatly facilitates recovery after various types of sanitation of the oral cavity.
