The use of custom made dental splints for robotic and rigid endoscopic surgery of the upper aerodigestive tract

Abstract

Custom made dental splints allow for significantly improved access in difficult cases, especially those involving the laser or robot. Our customization also allows bespoke accommodation of the Boyle Davis gag or FK-retractor.

These guards never displace and afford protection to the otherwise exposed lower teeth.

The dental splints are reusable.
