Immobilization
Sometimes as a result of trauma or as a result of a prolonged
periapical lesion, which has destroyed a large part of the alveolar
bone; such in the case of a periapical cyst, the tooth that has to be
treated endodontically is extremely mobile and has to be immobilized.
The tooth can be stabilized with orthodontic appliances and then
treated endodontically. The tooth is immobilized until healing and
stabilization of the tooth have occurred. Nowadays it is recommended
to immobilize the tooth with composite materials instead of
orthodontic appliances, because orthodontic immobilization with bands
or orthodontic brackets and arch wire, as done in the past, may allow
small movements of the teeth (totally passive immobilization cannot be
achieved) and as a consequence, root resorption may occur.
