Tire-Spoon

A spoon splint is a dental instrument designed for temporary immobilization of the upper jaw during fractures.

The shape of the spoon splint resembles a metal trough, repeating the anatomical contours of the patient’s jaw. Thanks to this, the splint fits tightly to the dentition and reliably fixes bone fragments in the event of a fracture.

The splint is made individually for each patient based on a plaster cast of the jaw. It is usually made from thin sheet metal or wire.

Indications for the use of a splint are unilateral or bilateral fractures of the upper jaw. The splint is fixed on the teeth with special ligatures or clasps for a period of 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the severity of the injury. This allows you to ensure the immobility of bone fragments and create optimal conditions for their fusion.

Thus, the spoon splint is an indispensable tool for temporary immobilization for fractures of the upper jaw, allowing successful treatment of such injuries.

Spoon tire is a dental instrument that is used for temporary fixation of the upper jaw in case of traumatic injuries. It is a metal trough that is shaped like a jaw and allows you to securely fix the upper jaw in the desired position.

The spoon splint is one of the most common instruments in dentistry, used in the treatment of jaw fractures. It allows you to reduce mobility and limit the movements of the upper jaw, which promotes rapid tissue healing.

To install a spoon splint, it is necessary to carry out preliminary preparation, including local anesthesia and cleansing the oral cavity of food debris. Then the spoon splint is installed on the upper jaw and fixed using special fasteners.

After a tray splint is installed, the patient should follow certain oral care guidelines, including brushing teeth regularly and avoiding hard and spicy foods.

In general, the spoon splint is an effective tool for the treatment of fractures of the upper jaw and provides reliable fixation of the jaw in the correct position, which speeds up the tissue healing process and avoids complications.
