How does a dentist typically stabilize a tooth after an injury?

  1. With permanent cement

  2. With a temporary splint

  3. With dental bonding

  4. With a dental crown

The correct answer is: With a temporary splint

A dentist typically stabilizes a tooth after an injury with a temporary splint. This is because a temporary splint is a flexible and easily adjustable solution that provides the necessary support and stability for a damaged tooth while it heals. Permanent cement, dental bonding, and dental crowns are not commonly used as stabilizing methods as they are more permanent and may not be suitable for a healing tooth.
