What Is Periodontal Splinting?

Dental Implants Fort Myers

Periodontal splinting is a special treatment used to stabilize teeth that have become loose due to advanced gum disease, trauma, or bone loss. Over time, periodontal disease can weaken the supporting structures around teeth, making them prone to mobility, discomfort, and even tooth loss. A splint works by bonding or connecting these unstable teeth to adjacent, healthier teeth, effectively redistributing biting forces and reducing stress on the compromised areas. This not only preserves natural teeth but also helps prevent further damage to the gums and surrounding bone. The procedure can be performed using different materials, such as composite resin or custom-made splints, and is often combined with other periodontal treatments to optimize healing and stability.

At Viruet Periodontics, Dr. Krystal Reyes-Viruet provides a personalized approach to periodontal splinting, ensuring each patient receives care tailored to their specific dental needs. Patients in the Fort Myers area can trust that their treatment will focus on long-term oral health, comfort, and functionality. Dr. Reyes-Viruet takes the time to evaluate each case thoroughly, incorporating the latest techniques and technologies to create durable and effective splints. By combining advanced materials with careful planning, the treatment helps restore stability, improve chewing function, and enhance overall oral health. The team at Viruet Periodontics understands the anxiety that can come with loose teeth and works closely with patients to ensure a smooth, comfortable experience from consultation through recovery. With a focus on both prevention and restoration, Dr. Reyes-Viruet aims to strengthen teeth, protect the supporting structures, and preserve the patient’s natural smile for years to come.

  d such an amazing experience with Dr. Krystal Viruet and her team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. Dr. Viruet is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely caring—she takes the time to explain everything and makes you feel completely at ease.

Violeta and Jacky at the front office are just as wonderful. They are friendly, organized, and go above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, from scheduling to check-out.

The whole office has such a warm, positive energy. It’s rare to actually enjoy going to the dentist, but this team truly makes it a great experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional dental care!

  Following a referral from my dentist for severe periodontitis, I was experiencing significant personal challenges. Dr. Reyes-Viruet, Violeta, Jackie, and the entire staff have consistently provided a welcoming and compassionate environment. Their attentiveness to detail and dedication to my care have been exceptional. While this is the initial phase of treatment, I feel understood and supported, and I am confident in my ability to openly communicate any questions or concerns.
