Periodontal treatment

Good afternoon. Ready for some periodontal treatment. Remember you can’t not reverse periodontitis only gingivitis. Best way to keep under control is visiting your dentist every 3 months. Brushing your teeth 2 to 3 times per day, using dental floss interdental brushes, the right mouthwash and check for systemic diseases .

Novocaine

Local anesthesia, also commonly known as novocaine, is used during most dental procedures. This medication is administered as an injection designed to temporarily prevent the teeth nerve fibers from transmitting impulses, thereby numbing the area. There are different types of dental anaesthetics like lidocaine, mepivacain, prilocain & bupivacaine….. Each one is different according to patients needs.

Access cavity preparation

The main objective of access cavity preparation is to identify the root canal entrances for subsequent preparation and obturation of the root canal system. Access cavity preparation can be one of the most challenging and frustrating aspects of endodontic treatment, but it is the key to successful treatment.

Exposed dentin

There are two common ways in which dentine can be exposed; gingival recession and tooth wear. The main cause of DH is gingival recession (receding gums) with exposure of root surfaces, loss of the cementum layer and smear layer.

How do you seal exposed dentin?
For total-etch method: Apply a thin coat of adhesive bonding resin (ALL-BOND 3, Part A and B, BISCO), air thin, then light cure for 10 seconds. Block out any undercuts using flowable composite. Apply a thin coat of bonding resin (ALL-BOND 3), air thin, then light cure.
