Dimensional stability of occlusal splints
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1996Five fabrication techniques and two storage methods were used to construct and store specimens to investigate the dimensional stability of acrylic resin occlusal splints. A research model was developed to more closely approximate the tooth coverage limits of occlusal splints.

CLINICAL RATIONALE FOR TOOTH STABILIZATION AND SPLINTING
Dental Clinics of North America, 1999Tooth mobility can be a consequence of periodontal inflammation, attachment loss, and occlusal trauma. At times, this mobility may be tolerable, whereas at other times mobility may contribute to occlusal instability and/or patient discomfort. This article describes the clinical rationale for and the effects of splinting mobile teeth.

Intranasal splints and their effects on intranasal adhesions and septal stability
Clinical Otolaryngology, 1992Intranasal splints have been used to maintain septal stability and prevent intranasal adhesions following septal surgery. However, their efficacy and attendant morbidity have received surprisingly little attention. Our prospective study of 100 adults was divided into patients undergoing septoplasty or submucous resection of the nasal septum alone (n ...

Comparative electromyographic study of bite plates and stabilization splints
European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1985Abstract – The object was to study any influence on the integrated clectromyographie activity in the masseter and temporal muscles of two types of occlusal appliances. Seventeen healthy subjects wore a bite plate with a frontal plateau and a full coverage stabilization splint at night, each for 1 wk. The EMG activity was recorded without appliances in

Journal of hand therapy : official journal of the American Society of Hand Therapists, 2002
Creation of a splint should allow for maximal functional use of the hand as well as comfort. The design of the Galindo-Lim splint enhances functional use of the hand not only because it stabilizes the MCP joint but also because it does not cross the wrist crease, thus allowing full wrist motion.

[A clinical protocol for stabilization splint construction].
Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2005Occlusal appliances are used as a reversible treatment modality of temporomandibular disorders. This article describes a protocol to produce a stabilization splint with a minimum of chair time, and an improved compliance, aiming at an overall improvement of the therapeutic potential. Maintaining the existing occlusion in stead of using centric relation

Stabilization of avulsed teeth in children with the flexible mouthguard splint
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1978A fast and simple technique for the fabrication of a removable splint is described. The splinting of avulsed or displaced anterior teeth in children often causes anchorage problems because adequate support is not available from the adjacent mixed dentition. A simplified splinting procedure helps solve this problem.

Abutment stabilization through endosseous and cross-arch splinting
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1971Abstract The increasing longevity of the general population makes it incumbent upon dentistry to develop methods of maintaining bony support and subminimal abutment teeth for denture retention. Knowledge gained from oral surgery, periodontics, endodontics, fixed partial prosthodontics, and removable partial prosthodontics enables dentists to restore ...
