METHOD FOR DIRECT DENTAL RESTORATION WITH IMMEDIATE DENTURE Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61C13/20 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: before the teeth removal, a pattern of both jaws is contoured. That is followed by casting against the pattern. Electromyography is performed to examine the health of the masseter and cervical muscles to be relaxed by transcutaneous electronic nerve stimulation therapy in order to identify the optimum position of the lower jaw. The post-relaxation health of the muscles is controlled by electromyography, and this position is recorded. Thereafter, these findings are used to fix the patterns into an articulator with pre-set angles of sagittal and transversal slide paths. The anatomical shape of the crown portion of the tooth to be removed is contoured in wax. Then a thermal forming plate of a desired thickness enabling to restore an occlusal vertical dimension to a desired value is selected; a basis is formed in a thermal forming unit. It is snipped of in the form of a tray. The tooth to be removed according to the common technique is cut off on a plaster contour. Quick-setting plastic is introduced into the tray cell of the removed teeth to restore the defect; contacts of the prosthesis and antagonist tissues are aligned in the articulator. The prosthesis is finished.

EFFECT: method enables simultaneous dental restoration immediately after the tooth removal, restoration of the occlusal vertical dimension and position of the head of the mandible in the glenoid cavity and masseter and cervical muscular tonus.
