Base metal crowns really aren't done much anymore - too many issues with Beryllium toxicity in labs and Nickel allergies with patients. Usually gold at 40% is the minimum for most crowns, and yes the FGC is still done, albeit much less than in the past. With all-ceramic materials, especially zirconia, the full gold crown is almost gone from many practices...

The temporary will usually take about 10 minutes as well, unless it's in the anterior, where esthetics may dictate customization, taking twice as long. From start to finish for a molar crown, Including med hx review, pre-op instructions, anesthesia, build-up, prep , impression and temporary, shade and Rx, charting and post op instructions, I usually book 1.5 hours. This is a fairly common time schedule for experienced dentists, however, many will work faster - I'm not about increasing profits but I enjoy trying to be better every time I work on a case from a quality standpoint.

@StevensonDentalSolutions4 жыл бұрын
@@no-dl4rm You need 0.5 mm minimum for the metal and 0.2-3 mm for the opaque layer, therefore 2 mm is the standard here in the US as taught by Shillingburg, etc. which will allow for beautiful groove replication and an aesthetic appearance. As for the grit, the lab will use a wax-up and add die spacer which will leave space for the cement, which you will then fill the grooves with. A smoother prep actually increases retention due to more of the metal being in contact with the prepared surface, and also, less distortion when removing the wax pattern from the die. A rough prep has hundreds of micro undercuts. This is rare knowledge and is not taught in dental schools nor understood by even the most experienced dentists.

@StevensonDentalSolutions3 жыл бұрын
You can make a gold feather edge 360 degrees - it's just not taught this way in dental school, as it requires a very talented technician to pull the wax pattern off the die without distortion. Most technicians find that when more bulk exists at the finish line (via a modified chamfer) it is easier and more predictable when fabricating a casting. I perform all of my gold lab work and find that feather edge margins are not an issue, but they do require significant skills to pull off.

You can use the RGS 4 instrument. If you don’t have one of these you can also use the shank of a friction grip but which measures 1.5 mm. When you don’t have any instruments that can be used like on the lingual, simply use depth cuts or depth planes during your reduction. You can always look at the adjacent teeth in the area of the marginal ridge. You can easily see that you have reduced your preparation 1.5 mm more than the adjacent marginal ridge.

A few tips: use rubber dam whenever possible - even on full crown preps. Turn the water down. At the end, use the electric handpiece or stall-out mode on the high speed DRY with fine diamonds and refine with a light touch - very little heat is generated if at all. In fact, studies have shown that using the prophy cup causes significantly more heat that a dry bur! A good assistant will keep your mirror dry during the procedure.

Can I use low speed rather than high speed ?

What is the suggested speed ?
@StevensonDentalSolutions4 жыл бұрын
I use 36,000 electric with a 5x up gear for a speed of over 180,000 rpm for the gross cutting and then slow it to 5,000x5 = 25,000 fom for the refinement or even slower.

Hey Dr stevenson, thank you so much!!! I want to ask that should I always retract the free gingiva by placing retraction cord before preparing the crown???
@StevensonDentalSolutions4 жыл бұрын
Usually in the posterior I use rubber dam for most of the prep and then go without burs to finish the margins. For anterior teeth it depends - sometimes a small cord (the smallest or #3 silk suture) is placed when the phenotype is thin and recession is a concern, in this was I can control bur contact with the tissue and not disturb the delicate gingiva. In the latter case, I would not use a true retraction technique - we see these cases in about 13% of the patients, fortunately. In other anterior cases, where recession is less of a concern, thick phenotype, normal bone crest, I will place a small cord and prep to the top of the crowd, then pack another cord on top prior to the impression.

Its only a shame that so many dentist, are able to become dentist even though they are not good enough to produce quality work. You watch these videos and think this is the work you will get. But for some reason, there are many dentists who do really bad work, and yet are still able to stay dentists doing bad work. Only if they all did good quality work like we see in these BS videos lol.

Lost count how many times he touched the adjacent teeth!
@StevensonDentalSolutions3 жыл бұрын
For the untrained eye, it looks like a lot, but i actuality the adjacent teeth were not touched one time during the filming of this video. I use 6x loupes and a microscope and can place the bur within 50 microns of the adjacent tooth with no touching. The powder generated may give you this impression. Thank you for your comment as it is hard to understand when just learning fine dentistry.
