We're taught to use "increased caries risk" and "standard caries risk" at my dental school, how does this fit with the fgdp radiography guidelines Lucy mentions?
Dr. please, would you mind answering me.. 1_ what is meant by low and high torque bracket and in what cases we can use them? 2_ how can we prevent the wagon wheel effect, when a torque is applied to the anterior teeth especially the laterals? and if happened, how can we fix it ? because I have a case of a Cl1, moderate crowding, upper 6 s are missed, with mild to moderate deep bite. every thing was alright till I reached 17 * 25 NiTi wire, the upper 2s becamed with flared crowns, tipped distally. I did all I know to fix the problem, but it didn't work, torque spring, torque bend, upside down bracket, repositioning of the bracket, Z bend, change the right bracket to left and vise versa, with no hope. the teeth are with normal phisiological movement, good occlusion, enough spaces mesially and distally, no sign of ankylosis, the x_ray showed no Pdl widening, radiolucensy or chsnges. Please Dr. , your kind opinion. 🙏🌹
Hi Doc! I already answered this question previously I think (sorry if I mistakened you for someone else) - those questions are really for an Orthodontist - I am a humble GDP who sticks to alignment!
I've found that pain during perio treatment is very individual. There's this 10% patients that can take aggressive ultrasonics in 7mm pockets and not feel anything at all, it's perplexing.
Hi Jaz,
This was such an informative video. Can you please get Dr Lucy back with more commandments? She’s so knowledgeable and to-the-point. Thanks :)
wholeheartedly agree :)
Thanks very much guys . Very helpful 👍
thanks for dropping a comment!
