Abstract

|
A 2-year-old, intact and a 10-year-old, castrated male Maltese were referred for treatment of progressive tooth mobility and periodontal disease. The first case was presented with tooth mobility of mandibular incisors (Grade 2-3) and the second case was also presented with tooth mobility of maxillary incisors (Grade 2-3) by periodontal disease. The treatment plan included supragingival scaling, closed root planing, subgingival curettage and removable-fixed periodontal splinting of the mandibular (case 1) and maxillary (case 2) incisors to stabilize them. Three months after therapy, oral examinations were performed for evaluation of success of therapy. In both cases, oral malodor, periodontal disease and tooth mobility were resolved and periodontal splints were remained rigidly.
