Smart dentistry for Smart kids: Smartprep Instrument
If there is one place many of us dread to go, it is the dentist's chair. The sight of a large syringe being injected into tender gums can bring tears to the eyes of even the most red-blooded person. Fears about the dreaded needle, as well as the sight and sound of the high-pitched drill are enough for many to avoid the dentist until we are in considerable pain ourselves. Recent advances in dentistry, however, along with age old relaxation techniques have gone a long way toward riding people of their needle phobia with the result that many patients are now leaving dental clinics without little or pain whatsoever.
Minimal Intervention' has changed the very look of modern day dentistry in term of its aesthetic value, patient comfort and operator convenience. The prime treatment objective for carious teeth requiring operative intervention is complete removal of infected dentin followed by placement of a well sealed, long-lasting restoration. Fundamental considerations in the process are the maintenance of pulp vitality and minimal destructions of sound tissue. The concept of minimally invasive dentistry is removal of caries with methods that minimize the loss of sound enamel and dentin.
SmartPrep Instruments is a self-limiting technology for conservative cavity preparation that preserves healthy tooth structure. Made up of innovative polymer material, SmartPrep represents a major innovation in conservative and pediatric dentistry.
"IT IS THE FIRST INSTRUMENT IN THE DENTISTRY THAT CAN DIFFERENTIATES BETWEEN HEALTHY DENTIN AND DECAYED DENTIN"
These instruments are designed to only allow for the removal of infected dentin as they are self-limiting and cannot cut, or prepare, healthy dentin. It loses its efficacy and functional ability and becomes more rounded when it comes into contact with this harder healthy dentin as the preparation is finalized. It is not designed to cut or remove enamel, composite, amalgam, cementum, or healthy dentin. The instrument dulls quickly when it comes in contact with these harder substances. As a result, it is designed to protect against unnecessary pulp exposure. SmartPrep Instruments are designed to reduce post-operative sensitivity and minimize the risk of inadvertent pulp exposure, which could lead to endodontic treatment.
APPLICATIONS
It can be used in both children and adults
Used in both deep as well as shallow lesions
During procedure requiring the replacement of existing restoration
Used in patients who are needle-phobic
It can be used to remove decay in Class I, II, III and V cavity preparation
BENEFITS
It expose few dentinal tubules, therefore hypersensitiviy is reduced.
Need for anesthesia is reduced, which allows to perform multiple quadrant preparation during single appointment
Inadvertent pulp exposure is minimized since the instrument cannot cut healthy dentin, which could lead to endodontic treatment.
It can be used in deep dentinal caries (less chances of pulp exposure)
Conserving healthy tooth structure
Less heat is produced during caries removal, as it is made up of polymer bur and used at slow speed at 500-800 rpm
Greater tactile sense than carbide bur which allows distinguishing between healthy and decaying dentin.
Conventional methods of decay removal with high or low speed carbides most often require the injection of local anesthesia to numb the pain. SmartPrep instrument reduces the need for anesthesia. As educated clinicians, we are the intelligence on the one end of the hand piece, now with SmartPrep, we have an intelligent instrument on the other end of the hand piece to conservatively perform our task.
The polymer bur is a practical application of the principles of relative hardness properties commonly used by the clinician in determining what dentinal structure needs to be removed. Using materials harder than carious dentin but softer than non-altered dentin, is a new conservative approach in developing new methods in dentin caries excavation. Management of pediatric patients is better with smartprep because of reduced need for giving local analgesic injection, decreased sensitivity, less chances of pulp exposures along with the preservation of maximum amount of tooth structure.
