"Knowing Your Dental Instruments and How to Use Them" by Dr. Heidi Bachmann Lobprise
Providing optimal dental care for your patients can be very challenging if you don’t have the right tools to provide the best level of care. There are a wide range of dental instruments, with a variety of choices in each category, from periodontal curettes to extraction elevators and luxators, to even dental burs. Knowing their proper use and care will allow you to have less frustration and better results with your oral and dental procedures.
Agenda:

- Periosteal elevators for gingival flaps
- Dental bur selection and use.
- Luxators and elevators for tooth extraction
- Periotomes
- Specialized equipment, e.g., root tip elevators and forceps
