    That’s a cool case Glenn. What a great service for the child and parents!!!!

    Try out that Tricaine Blue/Topical Anesthetic Gel stuff also if you get a chance. I’m afraid to try it on kids due to the high concentration of anesthetics. We are getting great results on adults as pre-anesthesia for our injections. Yesterday performed gingival retraction around implant abutment with diode laser using only the Tricaine Blue.

    Hi Glenn,

    How innovative! A great experience for the little girl and as you mentioned a happy mom. What else can you ask for. It made you feel even greater inside no doubt. Good stuff!

    Did you use 600u or 400u fibre tip?

    Glenn, that’s even more impressive when you see the images. Great talking to you yesterday and thanks for all the help.

    The great thing about these cases is that they stay in the back of your mind once you see them- the power of seeing. I know somewhere down the road I’ll be seeing a patient and think to myself-‘hey this is similar to what Glenn(or Al, or Mark,or Andrew,or Kelly or fill in the name of your choice)…. did and if I add this or that to it, it would work in this case’

    Speaking of the Ultradent stuff, we take one of their small syringes like you use w/ their astringent and a tip w/o the brush on it and keep EMLA in it. Seems to work pretty good for getting the EMLA into a sulcus also.

    BTW Glenn, thanks for the compliment, but what makes this site work is ALL the people who participate and share. One of the many things I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving.

    Thanks Ron and Andrew……..typo error Andrew……it was indeed the 400 micron tip not the 600 micron tip as I mentioned.

    EMLA , Hurricance , Blue Goo…..you name it, they all can be used.

    Off to work my merry friends…….have a great day and to all my US friends all the best for a wonderful thanksgiving and to Ron it was great talking to you yesterday,

    Guys and ladies, he is as professional on the phone as he is in type!!

    AMAZING. Great stuff.

    (almost as amazing as the Leafs beating the Canucks 2 straight!…Had to throw that in.)

    Take care, Vince

    Thanks Bob…..coming from the maestro himself I really appreciate your comments.

    Vince………the Maple Leafs needed to gain a false sense of security and also needed to boost Pat Quinns rating as a coach. They did both at the expense of the Canucks but just watch in the playoffs……the Canucks will go far this year I think.

    PS thanks for the compliments….

    Glenn:

    This is my source for “Tricaine Blue” which is compounded as “Topical Anesthetic Gel” by John Hollis:

    John Hollis Pharmacist, Inc.
    1923 Hayes Street, Nashville, TN 37203
    ph: (615) 327-3234 fax: (615) 320-068

    It’s 10% lido, 10% prilo and 4% tetracaine so some this is some high powered stuff. I’ve seen variation in compounding from different pharmacies – what I like about Hollis’ compound is it seems to adhere quite well to dried gingiva/mucosa plus the blue color makes it easy to see where the topical was applied.

    They will send you a faxed Rx for you to fill out and return. It’s about a &#361 US per gram but then there are handling/shipping fees.
