Protrusive Dental Pearl: There is a benefit of having nice tight contacts on our temporary crowns - but how can we polish our temporary crowns without ending up with open contacts? The trick is to get a Sharpie pen or indelible pencil and color in a small circle (maybe about two to three millimeters) mesial and distal of where the contact area is. Now finish and polish your temporary crown using burs/discs BUT do not touch that penciled mark. Ta da! You have just maintained the contact area. I know, why didn't anyone tell you before?!

Jaz's Introduction: Welcome back to PART TWO of COMPOSITE EXCELLENCE with Dr. Javier Queiroz. Now usually I start the podcast by saying, 'Hello Protruserati! I'm Jaz Gulati', now I had someone messaged me the other day on the podcast page say, 'Jaz, what does it mean if you're a Protruserati? I don't get it.' So on that note, welcome to any new listeners and new watchers. It's great to have you.
Jaz's Introduction:Protruserati is a dentist who listen to his podcast, but then finds themselves scrolling and then listening back to the old podcast that they haven't listened to before. And suddenly you've binged a lot of the episodes and therefore now you are a loved Protruserati. It means that you're passionate about dentistry or you want to be passionate about dentistry and you like tangible, productive tips and pearls to help you on Monday morning. So what I like to do with the podcast and what's evolved to become is a fun way to share. I'm hoping that most of the episodes you listen to aren't boring and there's a bit of humor or lightheartedness. We discuss real world dentistry or tips and themes that are really relevant and you can apply on Monday morning. So in this part two you're in for a treat. Like if you remember the three episodes we did with Dr. Devang Patel, let's go back and listen if you haven't already, they were on a ADHESIVE FULL MOUTH REHABS in three episodes. So how to do from right the beginning, from zero to 11 appointments over three episodes, how to do adhesive full mouth rehabilitations? So as we got more and more towards part three, it became MORE CLINICAL, it became MORE PROCEDURAL. And to this episode is no exception.
So Dr. Javier Queiroz becomes a bit more procedural in this episode into a nitty gritty. So in this episode, Dr. Queiroz covers INTERPROXIMAL MANAGEMENT OF COMPOSITES. I left you on a bit of a cliffhanger last time if you remember, sort of about isolation. Is it always necessary to use rubberdam or even split dam or OptraGate like personally? For a lot of anterior bonding, I like to use the OptraGate. For my posterior especially lowers, I will use rubberdam. Lower incisors, I'll definitely use rubberdam. So for me it's it's variable and depends on the patient very much. So let's see what Dr. Queiroz has to say about that. PREVENTING STAINS. That's a huge one, right? So you'll hear from him what the protocols are to prevent stains and composites and the FIVE P'S OF COMPOSITE VENEERS.
