Looks like Michigan is well put together when it comes to dentistry. New
York really sucks. NYU teaches nothing on dental technology. NYU is so over
rated. Keep up with the videos Michigan.
Could you add sound to these videos at all, or an exclamation of what is
happening. I think it would be great to say whats going on during the
procedure. Thanks!
Not that is really matters but Parkell Snap resin is not a methyl
methacrylate resin as stated in the video. It is an ethyl methacrylate
resin. It is a great material because it shrinks significantly less than
methyl methacrylate resins. In the video you stated that the correct
liquid/powder ration is 3 parts liquid to one part powder. It is the
reverse with 3 parts powder to one part liquid. Vaseline is not
appropriate to use as a separator because it inhibits the polymerization of
both methyl and ethyl methacrylate resins. The Vaseline will also get into
the dentinal tubules and it nearly impossible to eliminate after. This
will prevent bonding agents from entering the tubules which is not a good
thing. Bond strengths will be significantly reduced. Using glycerin or KY
jelly is preferred because it does not inhibit the setting of the acrylic
and is water soluble so it can easily be removed with an air/water
syringe. When the excess was removed from the temporary the burr was
applied perpendicular to the long axis of the temporary. This does not
enable removal of the horizontal overhang that was present on the
temporary. If this is not removed gingival inflammation will result and the
tissue will bleed at the delivery appointment. The exothermic reaction is
really not something to be concerned about. Dentin is an excellent
insulator. The temporary will fit best if the temporary is not allowed to
move during the polymerization and is allowed to completely set on the
tooth. When performing the adjustments to the polycarbonate shell it is
much easier to use an acrylic burr to shape the cervical following the
gingiival contopur. The shell crown should be trimmed in this fashion
until the incisal edge matches the contra lateral tooth. In the video the
shell was not trimmed enough and the temporary turned out longer than the
adjacent tooth. I hope these tips enable you to make even better temporary
crowns.
where can i buy that last you put in to the teeth?
