Rubber Dam isolation can be tricky enough sometimes - it is especially awkward when the TERMINAL MOLAR needs restoring. How on earth does one isolate AND matrix this tooth?
In this episode Isolating the Last Tooth in the Arch #RubberDamFam, Dr. Celine Higton delves into the intricacies of rubber dam isolation, particularly focusing on the last tooth in the arch. This discussion ties into the broader theme of mental health, highlighting how mastering such techniques can lead to a more enjoyable and stress-free practice.
Protrusive Dental Pearl: "Cow Mode" as a technique to improve access to the mouth's hard-to-reach areas, especially around the last molars. By instructing patients to shift their jaw to one side, akin to a cow's chewing, this approach aids in better oral hygiene practices and facilitates procedures like rubber dam isolation when clamping the terminal molar.
