ABSTRACT:
A dental splinting device includes an elongated bar-like member having a tapered mid-section along its elongated direction, which separates wider end sections to provide a dog bone-like configuration. A substantially flat surface is provided on one face thereof, and four cylindrical members extend perpendicularly from that face. The cylindrical members are received in bores provided in adjacent teeth, with the body member being disposed in a channel extending between the adjacent teeth. The bar-like member has a U-shaped or V-shaped cross sectional configuration. In use, a channel is formed across the adjacent teeth and then bores are formed, preferably using the dental splinting device, in the adjacent teeth registered so as to receive the cylindrical members. The splinting device is then positioned in the channel with the cylindrical members disposed in the bores, and an inlay fills in the channel and covers the splinting device.
