Air Particle Abrasion!

Images of Sandblasted teeth look cool but does it ACTUALLY improve clinical outcomes?

What are the indications? When is it genuinely critical to use?

More pragmatically, are there any decent alternatives eg. roughening with a bur?

Air particle abrasion, a technique used to prepare tooth surfaces for bonding, has sparked considerable debate among professionals. This episode discussed its effectiveness, implications, and best practices with  Dr. Veronica Pereira de Lima.

Protrusive Dental Pearl: 

Two advantages of slicing off a corner of the rubber dam are:

  1. Anterior Dam Stabilization: By flossing the cut piece through the front teeth, it acts as a makeshift wedge, securely fastening the dam in place without the need for traditional wedjet.
  2. Simplified Orientation: This technique aids in aligning the rubber dam properly, streamlining the entire setup process for more efficient dental work.

    3. Check out ‘Quick and Slick Rubber Dam’ online course (on-demand) only available via the Ultimate Education Plan on Protrusive Guidance
