    摘要: A dentoalveolar stabilizer includes a tray or channel having arranged thereon a stabilizing medium, which in some instances may be a wax-like medium. The tray and/or channel is sized and shaped to be placed over the entire mandibular (i.e., lower) or maxillary (i.e., upper) dentition. The stabilizing medium holds an affected tooth (e.g., a tooth that is loose or fractured following dentoalveolar trauma) in place and uses the stability of the adjacent healthy teeth and hard tissues to help stabilize the affected tooth. The dentoalveolar stabilizer can also stabilize an alveolar fracture, a palatal fracture, and/or a non-displaced mandible fracture. The dentoalveolar stabilizer can then be kept in place until the patient can be seen and definitively managed by a dental specialist.
