Abstract
Pulp exposures are the common problems encountered during the management of deep carious lesions in children and adolescents. The clinical skill plays an important role to achieve cooperation, reduced chair side time, and total patient care. This article describes a novel endodontic simulation trainer for dental pulpotomy and pulp capping. The simulator described in the article provides advantages such as life size design, easy to use, and cheaper to fabricate with good functional fidelity. This invention has the advantage that the pellet is replaceable, and so the procedure can be done multiple times simply by replacing it with a new pellet.
期刊介绍:
It is a journal aimed for research, scientific facts and details covering all specialties of dentistry with a good determination for exploring and sharing the knowledge in the medical and dental fraternity. The scope is therefore huge covering almost all streams of dentistry - starting from original studies, systematic reviews, narrative reviews, very unique case reports. Our journal appreciates research articles pertaining with advancement of dentistry. Journal scope is not limited to these subjects and is more wider covering all specialities of dentistry follows: Preventive and Community Dentistry (Dental Public Health) Endodontics Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (also called Oral Surgery) Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics Periodontology (also called Periodontics) Pediatric Dentistry (also called Pedodontics) Prosthodontics (also called Prosthetic Dentistry) Oral Medicine Special Needs Dentistry (also called Special Care Dentistry) Oral Biology Forensic Odontology Geriatric Dentistry or Geriodontics Implantology Laser and Aesthetic Dentistry.
