Protrusive Dental Pearl: Handing Composite for a Class 4 Restoration: When you’re restoring a Class IV on incisors you will need to decide how to manage the interproximal area. In the 'immediate' technique (called Immediate because you will manage this straight after the palatal wall build up) you can use some form of an interproximal matrix (posterior sectional matrix used vertically, for example). The tip here is to roll the composite between your gloved fingers first, roll it into a sausage, then you will then place that 'sausage' into the interproximal area. This will help you get a better interproximal shape. Inspired by Dr Dipesh Parmar from Mini Smile Makeover course.

I'm Jaz Gulati and welcome back to your favorite dental podcast. In this episode you will learn how to prescribe three really simple, really easy but super effective exercises to all your TMD patients Jaz's Introduction:The thing I discussed with TMD Physio Kreena Panchal today is that as dentists, we don't really get taught exercises that well what the indications, how to do it, how many seconds to hold it for, because usually we ourselves learn it from Googling, finding a PDF, and following the images and just giving the patient the leaflet or a brochure and so that yeah, just do these exercises, you'll be fine. But from this episode, we're gonna make it super clear, super tangible. So you can start implementing this right away. Before we join Kreena, some important announcements that by time you're listening to this, if you're one of my listeners who listens on the day the podcast comes out, my superfans, the real Protruserati, thank you so much. There are just two days left to join Splint Course online, if you want to learn how to manage bruxism and TMD in practice now, the exciting announcement I have to add to that is that by the end of next week, the splint course will be available as a podcast. So it's designed for the busy people who are commuting who don't have time to watch the videos just yet. Therefore, even when you're commuting, like you listen to this podcast, I'm going to let you consume the course, entire 13 plus hours as a podcast. And then all you have to do is refer back to the ebook, and refer back to the videos for the little clinical bits here and there. But you will absorb so much more just from driving and listening. So if that's been, if you're on the fence about it, because you're gonna struggle to find the time but you always find time to listen to podcasts, then this is done for you so that you can access that information. And then you can drastically reduce the screen time you need to be able to get the knowledge that you need to start making splints on Monday morning. Now some of you email me saying Jaz, when are you going to bring the splint course as a live course because the online course really isn't for me, well, good news and bad news, okay? Good news is that the live day is coming, okay? So me and Karina and a maxillofacial surgeon,
