Since then, the Boucle method has been widely used to treat various dental diseases, such as cracked teeth, periodontitis, periodontal disease and others. This method is so popular that it is still used in modern dental clinics around the world.

The essence of the method is that the tooth rubs against a hard substance, which affects the mucous membrane of the tooth and
