Where the enamel (the hard outer surface of the tooth) has cavitated or even has a small breach due to tooth decay, the cavity can be enlarged with special hand instruments when necessary to enable access to the soft decayed tooth tissue. After removing as much decay as necessary, the cavity is cleaned with water, dried and filled with the HVGIC.
The tooth of choice to replace a tooth missing in the anterior maxillary region is the maxillary second premolars. Poor prognosis first permanent molars can be replaced with third molars Autotransplantation has the best outcome in growing patients with some root development complete but incomplete development at the apex.
For low caries risk children, the aim is to maintain the baby's oral health. Clinical sessions include hygiene with hydrogen peroxide (1 part of H 2 O 2 + 3 parts of boiled or filtered water) and application of 0.1% sodium fluoride (NaF) solution using cotton swab. At home, parents and caregivers are instructed to keep the same dietary and ...
