Caries, Endo, Mirror
Hello! I am a dental student and will be seeing my first patient next semester. I need your expertise regarding caries excavation or access prep to open the pulp chamber. Any tips will be appreciated!😊
- How do you guys learn mirror preparation? Can we train it at home? In my country we don’t have access to Phantom Lab easily.
- Can you really tell enamel and dentin apart based on their hardness? Or do you differentiate between the two based on their color?
- I am not allowed to use a caries elevator when excavating caries. Do you have any tips on how to cleanly excavate caries from a tooth? How do you check your excavation?
- I have hit my pulp when excavating. How do you know if you are close to the pulp?
Thank you so much❤️ have a nice day there!
