Composite Resin Restorations Have Brought Us a Bright Future

One of my favorite treatments is Direct-bonding for the small defect in an anterior tooth by composite resin with an adhesive system.

I prefer to preserve teeth rather than drilling or tooth extraction. Direct bonding which is based on operative dentistry is esthetic and constructive.

Most importantly, patients are very glad of it.

I think that is because not only there is no sense of losing a tooth but also there is a sense of recovering a tooth.

The patient who comes to the dental clinic with the main complaint of a small chip in the anterior tooth, ordinary wants esthetic restoration.

Now, we can make it as a dentist!

This is not a superior case, conventional, not rare.

Since this is not a case presentation, I will not explain the details.

The following is a list of the dental materials and instruments I used.

FineEtch37; SPIDENT as selective etching at the enamel

Scotchbond Universal;3M ESPE as a bonding agent

Filtek Supreme Ultra A2E, A3B;3M ESPE as composite resin

OptraSculpt Pad;IvoclarVivadent as instrument

Opti1step Polisher; Kerr as finishing and polishing polisher

I didn’t use any other special items.

There is a growing sense of anxiety among the residents. These Kurds have applied for refugee status in Japan, claiming that they are Turks, but they are persecuted in Turkey, so they have come to Japan as refugees and are asking for help. However, we know that they entered Japan as Turkish tourists and applied for refugee status as Kurds as soon as their tourist visas expired. By the way, about 600$ per month is provided from taxpayers' money as protection money. Generally, Japanese people do not discriminate against foreigners, but we do not like criminals who disrupt social security. The Japanese are equally averse to criminals, whether they are fellow countrymen or foreigners. I wo...

The Sealer-Puff After the Root Canal Obturation, the Relationship Between Root Canal Irrigation

The sealer-puff is a characteristic appearance of sealer overflow outside the apical foramen on the confirmatory dental photograph after root canal filling. This is caused by a small amount of sealer overflowing outside the apical foramen when the dentists pressurize the area around the apical constriction to achieve a tight root canal filling. It is also caused by sealer penetrating the lateral branches of the apical-delta due to pressure at the apex. The sealer puff is, after all, an overflow of foreign material into the periapical tissue of the root apex. Of course, dentists must always try to prevent foreign material to overflow from the root apex into the apical periapical tissue. However, if we take into account the cause of sealer puffs, we can evaluate them from a different perspective. Sealer puffs are... The area around the root apex is properly cleaned and free of debris, ensuring the patency of the root canal. And Be caused by the application of a good flow of s...
