摘要:
Dahl, B.L.&Krogstad, O. the effect of a partial bite raising splint on the occlusal face height. An x-ray cephalomelric study in human adults.Acta Odontol. Scand. 1982, 40, 17–2420 patients (18–50 years) with pathological attrition of upper and/or lower anterior teeth were treated, as a temporary measure, by means of a partial chrome-cobalt splint covering the palatal surfaces of the six upper front teeth. Tantalum implants to provide reference points were placed in the basal portion of upper and lower jaw bones. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were takenwithandwithoutthe splint at the beginning of treatment and thereafter every two months till the difference between measurements was as small as possible. Changes in the occlusal face height were evaluated. Measurement reliability proved to be very high. Continuous use of the splint caused intrusion of the front teeth and eruption of the others in all patients. the intrusion was on an average 1.05 mm and the eruption 1.47 mm after 6–14 months, indicating a possible potential for tooth eruption in human adults. More eruption than intrusion appeared to take place in the youngest age groups. Sexual differences could not be established. Use of the splint did not cause the common symptoms of mandibular dysfunction. Lisping was the most serious complaint.
