Robert Gregg DDSSpectatorThanks Glenn,
Yes, very interesting. The results is not much of a surprise, but the origins of the research is………
I mean, when was the last time we saw any research come from Bagdad?
Bob
dlawlerSpectatorBob, what settings would you suggest with the Periolase to eliminate dentinal sensitivity?
David
Robert Gregg DDSSpectatorStart with 2.0 watts, 100usec, 20 Hz and at several inches distance to establish comfort. Then 200 to 400 joules per tooth.
To etch dentin, and occlude tublues, use the Dentin Etch setting.

etienneSpectatorHi Bob
Do you remain several inches from the tooth?Do you treat in contact with tooth structure when you etch dentin? Can you suggest a clinical situation where you would want to do that? Any restoration? Care to share the dentin etch setting?
Thanks

Robert Gregg DDSSpectatorHi Bob
Do you remain several inches from the tooth?
No, I attempt to move in.
Do you treat in contact with tooth structure when you etch dentin?
Yes.
Can you suggest a clinical situation where you would want to do that? Yes. Any restoration? Yes. Care to share the dentin etch setting?
On your laser? The shortest PD (150 I think) and 300 mj/pulse. Can you get that much mj per pulse?
Thanks
EtienneSure. Bob
etienneSpectatorHi Bob
Cut another notch in your (laser)gun! I tried your desensitising settings last week on a patient where Sensodyne had failed. Saw her again today for a follow up and sensitivity is gone!!
Thanks for your help (again…)
Take care
Etienne
Robert Gregg DDSSpectatorEtienne,
Another awesome result with a FR pulsed Nd:YAG!
Well done!
