  • Title: Use of self-etching adhesive system and compomer for splinting traumatized incisors.
    Author: Croll TP, Helpin ML.
    Journal: Pediatr Dent; 2002; 24(1):53-6. PubMed ID: 11874061.
    Abstract:
    Traumatized teeth that are displaced from their normal alveolar positions need to be repositioned and stabilized so that healing can occur. Orthodontic ligature wire bonded into place with resin-based composite works well for splinting teeth. Using a self-etching adhesive bonding system and compomer material facilitates both the resin bonding and its removal. This clinical report describes a simplified resin/wire splinting procedure.
