ABSTRACT
This article describes mistakes that occur during the baseline diagnosis and fabrication stages of splinting. Each error increases the risk of complications leading to retreatment and the choice of new tactics. The analysis of complications that occurred after immobilization of teeth in the immediate and distant periods after treatment will allow us to give practical recommendations for their prevention, and to develop methods for eliminating existing deficiencies and complications.
The aim of the study is to investigate the mistakes and complications occurring in dental splinting.
Objects and methods. Visual assessment and analysis of adhesive splinting structures were performed in 280 patients.
Results and discussion. Complications arising from splinting of teeth in acute and chronic injuries have been identified. The analysis of the main causes of complications at the stages of splinting of movable teeth was carried out.
Conclusion. Knowing the causes of errors and complications after splinting teeth allows you to diagnose and choose a treatment method with the optimal location of the splint, and thereby minimize the occurrence of complications.

Keywords: splinting structures, splinting complications, error analysis
