C O M P R O M I S E D T R E A T M E N T Failing C O M P R O M I S E D T R E A T M E N T Failing veneer on the UL1 / 21 with several composite "patches" on the palatal aspect; recurrent decay. Historic endo. treatment; asymptomatic. Patient is concerned about catastrophic failure and has been placed on a public health waiting list for a crown on this tooth. Offered to strengthen this tooth by means of BRD principles. • Rubber dam isolation was unusual - patient has a 4-unit PFM bridge from 16-to-13; broken-off UR2 / 12 awaiting restoration at the dental school and a significantly deviated midline. Did not want to split dam. • Structural analysis carried out with CDD. Noted a Crack running from the mesial enamel into dentine but very little tooth structure in an anterior-posterior direction; so planned to reinforce with polyethylene fibers following bonding instead of removing this crack. Created reliable • Pumice slurry with bristle brushes and AA (Aquacut) • Matrix adaptation - initially, TOR system with Teflon wrapped Palodent wedge on the distal and broken wooden wedge in the mesial... • ...scratched that; tried to get fancy with my Unica anterior kit; but failed and got frustrated - used it anyway 🤔 • Total etch and rinse; drying not desiccating • CHX (PacDent) scrub with sterile cotton pellets for 1 minute • OptiBond FL with variation in "wicking off" adhesive instead of air drying • Photo-initiation for 40 seconds; then, DWT for 5 minutes • My interpretation / understanding of "Deli-bites" building the mesial and distal walls with GC Essentia Universal • Ribbond 4mm along crack mentioned earlier in conjunction with everX Flow; 2mm strands of Ribbond placed in intra-canal space created; as inspired by @jorgearavenadiaz • Whether it's right or not; placed a bit of everX Posterior, too, as I was a bit unsure of my venturing out of the realm of posts here 🙈 • Final layer of GC Essentia followed by glycerin and removal of oxygen inhibition layer with pumice slurry again and Diacom Polishers. It ain't pretty; but I hope it'll buy her some time. #getbonded #staybonded #biomimetic #biomimeticdentistry #biomimetica #rubberdamology #rubberdamfam #carillas #odontology #odonto #odontologia #doktergigi
The past week and a half has been tough acknowledg The past week and a half has been tough acknowledging where my own pride has been bruised by the words and actions of others beyond my control. Enjoyed constructing these biobases for a really appreciative and gracious patient. This bonding protocol was a peaceful way to round off an emotionally taxing few days. 🔍There is some adhesive flash photo-bombing one of the images. And, a severed floss ligature following some aggressive post-bonding polishing. "The eye of their God was watching over [them]...and they were not stopped." Ezra 5:5 'As we seek to follow God, wherever He places us, we may face opposition along the way. That's when we need to keep following Him. He will guide us and carry us through.' #getbonded #staybonded #biomimetic #biomimeticdentistry #biomimetica #biobased #adhesivedentistry #restorativedentistry #dentistas #dentistry #dentista #odontologia #odontoporamor #aislamientoabsoluto #tandarts #tandheelkunde #zahnartz #zahntechnik #teeth #tooth #rubberdamology #rubberdamfam #deepblue #dentalphotography #dentalart #scripture #faith #acceptance
One of "those days" 👀 Had high hopes of documen One of "those days" 👀 Had high hopes of documenting a direct case I was busy with; air-conditioning packed up and I fought with every matrix system in my armamentarium to try DME yet another UL7. In the end, customized a Kerr tofflemire band with scissors and wedged the heck out of it going through 3 different shades of dam. My wife and sons who had come to collect me; were still parked outside my practice at 7PM. My sons said, "Daddy, we thought you were kidnapped?!" 😅🙃 But, none of that is documented here, though. This? This is just current Friday mood 😴😴😴 Bonding protocols and the fun part of my day. . . . “Do not store up for yourselves [material] treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

Make of me, Father, a willing servant in times of Make of me, Father, a willing servant in times of weakness and times of strength. The mesial angulation/tilting of the LL7 / 37 contributed to an over-erupted position in an already unfavorable occlusal plane. She is a longstanding, single upper denture-adorner; where, at our initial meeting, it was revealed that previous adjustments made to the denture acrylic had led to a hole being created in the prosthesis. Planning occlusal recalibration within whatever means are viable. New denture: loading. Biobase created through structural analysis; juggling Williams probes and calipers (couldn't quite coordinate any artistic shots there; but stoked I managed to capture the "cusp blazer" @pierrepaoli_guttageek .) CDD faintly depicted within parameters in one of the photos. (And, all over my tray and pretty much everywhere else at my work station.) Some lovely photo opportunities during DWT - it warms my heart and might even bring a tear to my eye when I hear how my new dental assistants confirm that 5 minute timer with one another. The patient tolerated the bilateral anaesthesia in combination with across-the-tongue dam way better than I expected #ohbehave Send me some colourful floss @dentistry.by.drpaul from @gcaustralasia so I can get my colour floss ligatures game on 🤓😜 "Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]."

When the journey seems long and dreary, dear Lord, When the journey seems long and dreary, dear Lord, help me to remember You are travelling with me. Patient presented with a "loose filling" (UL7 / 27). No significant symptoms in spite of the radiographic appearance you'll see (PARL associated with the MB root of the UL6 / 16, too, caries communicating with pulp; subgingivally orientated. Two-stage endo.-resto. simply because I work slowly and time was an issue. (There'll be a third appointment, too...perhaps, I'll attempt a semi-direct overlay.) Structural analysis performed prior to endo. with the view of final overlay restoration in mind. (And, removing structurally compromised tooth structure reduced stress on MB instrumentation.)

A challenging case...well, for me; at least. Some A challenging case...well, for me; at least. Some photographs of both the prep. and bonding appointments. IPS e.max bonded on UL1 / 21 and UR3 / 13. Replacements of my own work following craze lines visible to me at a 1 year review due to unfavorable contacts that I only learnt about in hindsight. Attempting to reconfigure the guidance with the expert help of @mc__botha and the gracious support of @ddi_lab I carried a great deal of the emotion stemming from a difficult patient interaction of yesterday - and the personal battle of learning from my own shortcomings through this case - sadly, home with me. I could have been gentler and less harsh with my sons and my wife. But, God. His grace. His mercy. 12 "Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

The Lord provides on a day of waiting around... Pa The Lord provides on a day of waiting around... Patient presented with poorly localized pain on the lower right-hand side of the mouth; describing how it had been radiating into her ear during the night. Clinical assessment revealed very poor plaque control and a number of rather unfavorable restorative treatments that were causing iatrogenic injury. Although asymptomatic, I described to her that the 44 would require a new restoration - ideally, indirect - and before proceeding, a re-treatment of its short apical fill would be recommended. She was in agreement. ° Sectioned composite resin catastrophe 😱 ° Extraction of symptomatic 45 💉⚒ and compression of bleeding socket ° Rubber dam isolation @coltene_us #hygenic ° Removal of previous GP 🧪 chloroform and barbed roach ~ Standard irrigation protocol 💦 with 3.5% sodium hypochlorite and 17% EDTA ♧ Ultrasonic agitation 💨 ° C+ files to negotiate apical third ~ No. 10 C+ pictured at length @elizmapieterse @dentsplysirona.endodontics ° WaveOne Gold reciprocation in X.smart Plus motor @dentsplysirona.za ° Thermafil No. 35 and TotalFill BC sealer @fkgdentaire @lesley.marshall.1232760 combination #forgiveme @advanced_endodontics_pretoria ◇ All I had available 🙈 ° X • Post (No. 2) with Rely X Ultimate @3m ° #smartdentinreplacement build-up and Tetric N-Ceram @ivodentsa @ivoclarvivadent_int Inspired by mentor; friend and endoboss 🤙@andre.brand.351 So, I wasn't happy with the inadequate distal marginal adaptation of the composite. This was largely due to my ineptness in managing the matrix here 👉 Would be great to get advice on which system would have been advisable to use in this instance and how best I could have achieved the distal lingual composite build-up?
