Adult Crown Recement
Adult Crown Re-cement
Before the dentist can carry out any treatments, I have to prepare the surgery. I put on my gloves and wipe down the spittoon, light, chair and work surfaces with hard surface disinfectant wipes. This is done to help prevent cross contamination. I get the patients records up on the computer and check the patient’s record and medical history. I do this to make sure the patient is not allergic to any medications that will be used in the re-cementing of the crown. I would also make available any radiographs. I make are that the patient has a signed consent form. I now set out the equipment, instruments, and materials that are required for this treatment. These include:
• Safety glasses – PPE
• Gloves – PPE
• Mask – PPE
• Large aspirator tip – retract soft tissues and to maintain a clear field of view
• Saliva ejector – to maintain a clear field of view
• Paper towel – decontaminating and making sure the patient remains comfortable
• Cup of water – rinsing the mouth
• Probe – to feel areas of a tooth
• Mirror – reflects light
• Flat plastic – placing materials
• Articulating paper – checking of the occlusal surface
• College tweezers – hold and carry things. E.g. cotton wool pellets
• Prosthetic disinfectant – to disinfect the crown
• Cotton rolls – retract soft tissue
• Cement
• Mixing pad – to mix the cement on
• Mixing spatula – mixing cement
• Dental floss – clearing the interdental between teeth
• excavator – cleaning old cement
• hand scalar – removing excess cement
I wash my hands and then call the patient into the surgery. Once the patient is sat in the chair, I put on the bib and safety glasses on the patient. I put on my own safety glasses, mask and gloves.
the dentist asked to see the detached crown and looks in the patients mouth where crown has come from, this is to assess if the crown can be re –cemented back in. on this occasion the crown can be re-cemented in. the dentists uses the excavator to
