A flexible dental retaining splint which is disposable in a channel extending between adjacent teeth, the retaining splint being formed of a wire core with a wire coil being wound about the core with the turns of the coil being in a juxtaposition. Wire loops are formed at both ends of the wound core. The splint can also be formed with several sections of wire cores each surrounded by a wire coil and having a wire loop connecting adjacent sections. The loops function to anchor or secure the splint in the channel, either by the inlay material or pins passing through the openings provided by loops. |
