| Abstract | |
Splinting is widely used in periodontics to stabilise mobile teeth. There are different splints available based on the types of materials and duration of use. This case report presents splinting in a 41-year old female patient who had the chief complaint of loosened teeth in the lower front teeth region and discomfort during chewing for four months. The fibre-reinforced composite was used and the patient reported comfort during mastication with reduced mobility of the associated teeth. |
