    Area of Science:

    • Dental Prosthetics
    • Periodontal Therapy
    • Restorative Dentistry

    Background:

    • Heat-processed provisional splints offer a method for fabricating restorations.
    • Esthetics and long-term serviceability are key considerations in provisional restorations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a technique for fabricating a heat-processed provisional splint.
    • To highlight the advantages of using well-adapted provisional restorations in periodontal prostheses.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of a heat-processed provisional splint with emphasis on esthetics and serviceability.

    Main Results:

    • Provisional splints facilitate periodontal treatment by improving surgical site access.
    • Splinting mobile abutments may enhance healing and periodontal-ligament reattachment.
    • Provisional restorations allow evaluation of patient home care before final restorations.
    • Aesthetic and comfortable provisional splints ensure patient cooperation during treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • The described technique yields provisional splints that are both esthetic and serviceable.
    • Well-adapted provisional restorations offer significant benefits in the context of periodontal prostheses.
    • This approach supports comprehensive patient care, from treatment facilitation to long-term restorative success.
