METHOD FOR MAKING AN ELASTIC INTERMAXILLARY SPLINT FOR IMMOBILIZATION OF FRAGMENTS IN CASE OF JAW FRACTURES

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, in particular to orthopedic dentistry, and is intended for use in the treatment of fractures of the jaws. For immobilization of fragments in case of fractures of the jaws, kneading of the bulk with a catalyst of the impression silicone material is carried out. A roller is formed along the length of the ellipsoidal dentition. A dough-like roller is installed between the chewing and cutting surfaces of the teeth of the upper and lower jaws and the teeth are closed in the central occlusion for a period of 2-3 minutes until the mass solidifies, followed by drilling holes in the area of ​​the missing tooth for receiving liquid food. Then, milling is carried out, with the removal of excess. The final fit is carried out in the oral cavity with fixation with a head sling-like bandage.;EFFECT: method allows quickly making an intermaxillary splint and provide reliable immobilization of fragments for subsequent evacuation and treatment of patients with jaw fractures.;1 cl, 1 dwg, 1 ex
