Thank u very much for ur sharing videos, dr. Goldstein.. I'm very happy can learn from the experts through this Dental XP.. I have question for this video.. Are u usually do the tooth preparation without water? Because I saw most of ur videos are doing preparation in dry condition.. Thx..

Regards,
Andrew Laurent

Thanks, Ahmad, for your kind comments. Regarding finishing a tight contact when the floss shreds, I will usually use one of the fine diamond finising strips from Brassseler USA...but only finish the area that seems to be the cause of the shredding. You may first cosider using another floss...sometimes that is all it takes...I will usually go o the Glide very think floss or another very thin waxed floss.. .. Generally I try not to finish the contact if I have used a milar strip or even an annealed ultra thik matrix band wih heavy wedging. No need to since the band will create th 'polished' fnish for you. Hope this helps... Ron

Dr.Goldstein, I am very impressed with all of your videos, and i really admire the fine work you do. i watch a lot of your posted videos! Q: What do you use to finish a resin proximal contact (the floss usually shreds when i pass it through)?Is there anything you use that will not break the contact when you tend to finish it? ? Any tips will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The bur i am using after the first 2 Sof-Flex discs is an ET 3 16 blade carbide followed by an ET 3 30 blade carbide bur (Brasseler USA ET series) for final contouring and texturizing the surface. Then I use the last 2 Sof-Flex discs and the Ilustra polishers (BrasselerUSA)

What is the name of the bur Dr Gldstein use at the middle of the video when using Sof-Lex to polsih and contouring the tooth in order to make the tooth more 3D? Is it included at the Universal ceramic crown and bridge kit?

Sasan,

I use air abrasion to remove tough stains especially when I will be bonding because the surface after air abrasion is excellent to bond to. I also will use course pumice and prophy jet in hygiene and that usually removes the stain...anything left, air abrasion. And not any other material can clean the tooth other than mechanical...Good luck
