If you’ve shied away from hard tissue lasers and you hate the mess with air abrasion, but you know that your rotary drill is antiquated, check this out: acid. Yep – now you can prepare teeth for fillings with the same stuff that burned off the face of the Joker…kind of. Acid erosion is blamed for significant oral health concerns these days, but like many things in science, measured and monitored doses of acid can be used for good. The Icon acid syringe for 15-minute fillings with “no pain and no unnecessary loss of healthy hard tissue.” Here’s how it works… First, a rubber barrier is placed around the tooth to be prepared. A small amount of acid gel is injected onto decayed tooth enamel. Over two minutes, the acid etches the tooth’s surface. After heat dryin... dental blog for dentists about dentistry blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=3259117 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 14:29:05 +0100 3259117 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2399001&cid=t_164042_125_f&fid=34820&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftrubyte.dentsply.com%2Fpro%2Fvideo%2Ftrurx_onlyMed_Prog.mov This innovative case planning tool doubles as a clinical tool and paitent education tool.

People get a certain feeling when they are there, like putting on a pair of old comfortable shoes or being plugged into a charge of energy. Memories, emotions, physical sensations - these places stir them all up, creating a divine craving to return often. For me, it’s an old football stadium. This past weekend I went to the football stadium of my alma mater. It’s just a spring scrimmage, but it’s a Huge Deal every year. This thing is more than just a sporting event. It’s an excuse to “be there”, to bask in the aura and the atmosphere, to get lost inside the experience. I went to college there, so did my husband, my dad, and so many other people in my family. I was in the marching band, and I...

Specifically, ACCUPAL is a cordless, compact, handheld device invented by a practicing dentist that effectively pre-conditions the oral tissue to receive virtually pain-free palatal or other intraoral dental injections that were previously unobtainable via manual injections or through the use of other devices. This hand-held anesthesia delivery technology was invented by a “main street” dentist and is about the size of a power toothbrush. It costs less than $500. Some great demo and testimonial videos on www.accupal.com.

The medical field uses liposomes to administer medication and drugs. At the International Association for Dental Research Meeting in July, a report was released from the Institute of Biology at State University of Campinas in Brazil that says anesthesia delivered in liposomes is less painful and lasts longer than traditional means of administration. It also has a better acceptance into the body’s circulation, less toxicity, and an increased half-life, according to Dr. Giovana Tofoli. The study showed that when encapsulated mepivacaine (an anesthesia) was injected into rats, oral mucosa did not become as inflamed as it did with another traditionally administered drug that is similar to mepivacaine.

All shoes should be comfortable, that should be part of the definition of a shoe. If a shoe fails to be comfortable it instantaneously transforms itself into another category entirely, namely a means of torture. Additionally, the ideal shoe should be red, in fact I think it should be compulsory that all shoes are red. I would sacrifice, that is to say ‘trade,’ red for comfortable. [translation = beware of women in comfortable shoes] I expect it would surprise you to learn that my first ever pair of shoes were red? [translation = the newly hatched duckling fixates on the first visible object] I of course, am in a position of power, since I have the purse, which contains the means to acquire the shoes. [...
