    Some confusion with a few viewers: "The point of bur entry is within the incisogingival dimension of the carious lesion or defective restoration and as close the the adjacent tooth as possible without contacting it. Direct the bur PERPENDICULAR (90 degrees) to the enamel surface..." Sturdevant, "The Art and Science of Operative Dentistry" Angling the bur at a 45 degree angle undermines the incisal enamel.

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      One more thing: For an MF (facial approach) the bur is initiated at a 45 degree angle and the facial enamel is left undermined, but this works because the facial surface isn't under function. This is done primarily for esthetic reasons.

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Bevels on the lingual of small class IIIs are no longer the standard taught in most dental schools. None of the national boards required them neither the WREB nor the ADEX. I have not been placing bevels for about 15 years. However when the class III preparation is large and extends onto the facial bevels are mandatory for retention and aesthetics.

    Can't we use inverted cone , enamel hatchet?

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would not use an inverted cone for composites due to the sharp line angles created with this bur. I'd use an enamel hatchet and be careful not to create a sharp internal line angle. Interproximal bur like a 169L, yes these are great. Thank you for the questions!

  • @MurtyCZ
    @MurtyCZ 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    There is this thing I am confused about. I was always taught to always use diamond burs to prep the enamel but I see a lot of US dentists to use those high speed carbide burs, whether it is crown prep and now a cavity. Could you please talk more about thee difference? Doesnt the bur have rather shattering effect?

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      In the early days of operative dentistry, carbide steel was the only technology known to make burs. It wasn't until much later, in the 1970's and 80's that diamonds really become commonplace in dental practices and textbooks. The more recent development of operative diamonds has taken some time to catch on, and although great for less chatter when penetrating enamel, they are relatively costly and not as precise dimensionally compared to carbides. If you were to peruse the two most significant Operative texts in the US - by Sturdevant and Summitt, you'll see that the carbide remains as the go to instrument for conservative preparations.

    My question is, I am supposed to do a class III restoration involving the labial, mesial and palatial walls. In this situation, do I start my prep from the palatial or labial surface? Any other particular points I need to keep in mind while making this preparation? Thank you in advance.

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Start the prep where the least amount of tooth will be removed. Usually lingual (not palatal) access is the most common.

      The typical class III lingual approach extends 2-3 mm towards the facial. When viewed from the facial, the proximal contact will be barely broken.

Regarding restorative section of CDCA, the guidelines say that the examiners approve the diagnosis of the candidates before they can permit the candidates to proceed with the preparation. Can you please shed some light on the kind of diagnosis CDCA is expecting from candidates for the carious teeth? Thank you

    I have no real tooth pain, feel irritation mostly but no sensitivity to hot or cold. Hopefully tomorrow I can go to my dentist and they can get a good look at it.

      Yes, composite restorations may be a good option for you. If your problem is due to wear from grinding a night guard may also be suggested or even a sleep study - sleep disordered breathing and grinding are high correlated.

    Dear Dr. Stevenson,
    If the hand instrument provided (enamel hatchet) is of 1.5 mm, should the cavity still be at 1.5 mm size for DL on #9? Sometimes while practicing with a constraint of the provided hand instrument, I end up making the overall prep of 2mm. Could you please share how to keep it at just 1.5 mm and still be able to use that 1.5 mm hatchet?
    Thank you for this amazing video.

      With a 1.5 mm hatchet this is very difficult - it will most always be at least 0.1 mm more than the width of the hatchet. Sometimes, you may wedge and create some separation and then it will fit easily...

    Hi Dr Stevenson, I have a question which might sound stupid. For all preparation of teeth ,from examiner point of view, what power loupes you recommend for practice? I got two loupes (3x and 6x) and my preparation seems very clumsy under 6x which seems fine and smooth under 3x. If we know what power loupes examiner will be using for marking, it'll be very helpful for students. Thanks...

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great question! Most dental school faculty and WREB/NERB examiners use 3.5x - 4.5x loupes. If the prep is smooth at 3.5x, it will always look less smooth at 6x. Using 6x takes many hours of practice and isn't initially practical. Do the best you can at 3.5x and you'll be in the "Green Zone" if you've met the criteria.

    @sahilbhalla389 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Crisp and clear knowledge 👌 . I have 2 ques:
    1. Which operator position would you suggest to prepare class 3 cavity on Distolingual surface of tooth no. 12 ( first quadrant lateral incisor)? I find it difficult to access this surface while keeping the bur perpendicular to tooth and using a hatchet to smooth the walls feels impossible.
    2. I am currently using 3.5x magnification for restorative work required for the exam. Do you think i should switch to 4x or 4.5x to make my work more intricate for the examiner to check 😅 what according to you will be the sweetspot for magnification for a dental student?

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      1. Use the 11 O'Clock position but have the patient turn away from you - this help. 2. I siwtched from 2.5x to 4.5 x after two years and then 2 years after that ramped up to 6x. I also use a microscope. If you can, push the mag as high as you can - you'll quickly adapt. 4.5x isn't that high, so you should do well.

    Hi Dr Stevenson! Great video, Is this the conventional class iii prep? Why did we not place a bevel here, thanks again. Your videos are awesome

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Most of us are migrating away from bevels when they don't add to the esthetics or significantly to the retention of the case. With class 3's which are prepped from the lingual, a bevel isn't helping enough to justify the additional enamel removal.

    What type of bevel is indicated on class 3 Cavity ..I think it's long bevel ..Kindly 🙏🏾 reply ..

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Bevels are rarely employed anymore on class III's unless: 1. they extend onto the facial and require an esthetic blend, 2. The are large and require additional retention. The US licensing exams not only don't require them, but would prefer they not be beveled. When a bevel IS indicated, full enamel thickness, followed by an infinity bevel or starburst is great for facial surfaces.

    • @StevensonDentalSolutions
      @StevensonDentalSolutions  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great Questions! Thank you. Bevels are no longer in favor for small preps with no esthetic margin concerns. If the prep has ample retention and has no need to be "esthetically blended" with the use of a bevel, a bevel is not used. The bevel would not only remove tooth structure and it would render composite susceptible to fracture (as it is thin) due to occlusal contacts. Note: both the WREB and ADEX dental licensure exams removed the bevel requirement on the class III several years ago, in keeping with the science and teaching practices within the US. IF, the prep extended onto the facial, we would bevel the facial margin (esthetic blending) or IF the prep were large and needing retention, we would bevel all accessible margins. Bevels aren't contra-indicated in all preps, rather the algorithm for their use is more sophisticated. Dr. Stevenson
