After the success of PDP103 Adhesive Full Mouth Rehabs in 11 Appointments, we’re here again to discuss how to plan the Wax Up, Mock up and temporaries using bis-acryl with Dr Devang Patel.

Protrusive Dental Pearl: How I communicate a high RCT risk: For ordinary patients, I would always say “YOUR tooth decay (in YOUR tooth)/ YOUR filling was very deep.” But for some patients who you feel would make trouble, I would continue to add “…if we do nothing, then your tooth will eventually be in a worse situation. And you may lose your tooth. This could be a painful process as well. If I do something, then that involves drilling your tooth decay, drilling the soft bits of your tooth away and drilling away the old filling that’s leaking. Drilling is not a nice thing. So by drilling, the drill is damaging your nerve. Your nerve may die and need a Root Canal.”
