Effectiveness of using digital milled periodontal splints in the complex treatment of chronic periodontitis of mild severity: a clinical case
Abstract
Periodontal diseases are widespread among adult population. They lead to loss of dental attachment and destruction of the supporting bone tissue of the teeth. Thus, the issue of effective immobilization of movable teeth seems acute and important. This article presents a clinical case of a 32-year-old patient with movable teeth 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3. The treatment protocol includes CAD/CAM additive technologies. A polymer splint was manufactured for temporary immobilization. Permanent immobilization was carried out six months later with an individual milled splint made of zirconium dioxide. Periotestometry was used for quantitative analysis of tooth mobility. Local hemodynamics was assessed by doppler ultrasound. Changes in microbiocenosis were evaluated by real-time PCR. All measurements were performed three times: before treatment, after non-surgical periodontal treatment and temporary immobilization, as well as 6 months after fixing a permanent splint.
