The methods described here can be
used in the following cases:
- Repair of fractured bridge. See foregoing illustrations.
- Repair of loosened bridge abutment (Fig.9 & 10).
- Connection to another bridge.
- Combining more than one bridge and separate teeth in
parodontal seriously damaged bites.
- Correction of a defective bite.
- Replacement of badly abraded facings.
- In connection with implanted bridges.
This technique has many advantages:
Due to the leverage effect the design is very stable and substantial. Furthermore, the
method allows for correction to a defective bite. Both metal/ceramic and gold/acrylate
bridges can be repaired in this way.
The technique for repair is easy to use but, to simplify
and improve the quality of the repair, I have produced the SvE Repair Kit. This contains
special drills for countersinking the screws and nuts, a socket turnkey, an extended
screw-post turnkey, extended rounded drills and other necessary drills.
The kit also contains 2 screws 1.4 x 9 mm and two screws
1.4 x 11 mm that are of titanium. |
