  • Title: Simplified splint construction with light-cured resin.
    Author: Scuba JR, McLaughlin JP.
    Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1990 Dec; 48(12):1341-3. PubMed ID: 2101594.
    Abstract:
    The technique described in this article involves the use of a relatively new material that has reduced the time required for the production of a finished surgical splint to approximately 20 minutes (including the 12-minute curing time of the material). It eliminates exposure to toxic materials, unpleasant odor, skin and mucous membrane irritation, and the myriad of additional time-consuming steps usually required for fabrication of conventional self- or heat-cured acrylic resin splints. The system is inexpensive, compact, nonhazardous, and readily available.
