Make sure my hair is been tied back. I wear the correct P.P.E (Gloves, Mask,Goggles)
- Dentist chair dental bottle is filled with purified water (RO machine) and flush water lines
for 2 minutes.
- Work surfaces wiped with alcohol free disinfectant and a microfiber cloth and applied
disposable covers.
- Surgery zoned into clean and dirty areas with a decontamination room adjoined.
- Put water and disinfectant solution into dirty instrument container and keep in dirty zone of
the surgery away from clean zone.
- All surfaces in decontamination room are wiped with disinfectant and wipes and microfibre
clothes.
- The ultrasonic machine is filled up with clean water and correct amount of ultrasonic
cleaner (30 ml of solution), then I switch the machine on for 7 minutes at 30 degrees
centigrade.
- Both autoclaves (type B and N/S) are clean and wipe the inside and door seal; after drained
all the dirty water I fill the water tanks with purified water from distiller water machine.
- Is placed the helix device and strip in vacuum autoclave and press "B" cycle then start
- Is placed sterilizer class 6 strip into "N" cycle non-vacuum autoclave and press 134 degrees
cycle.
- Remove items from cold sterilizer bath, rinse and dry.
- I check day list already printed from the reception, and ensure there are enough exam and
treatment instruments/trays set up for the day.
- Check if all lab work has been collected from dentist box.
- Dentist and myself follow the 13 steps for hand washing done by NHS, placed new PPE
(gloves, mask and my safety glasses).
PROCEDURE:
- I bring the patient into the surgery and provide bib and safety glasses, always make sure
and ask if patient is comfortable to start the procedure.
- The procedure starts when patient is already numb, after taken the local anaethetic (2 %
Lidocaine 1:100,000). Whilst dentist start drilling, I get away all tooth decay and I keep all
mouth area dry and clean from bites of decay aspirating with fast suction tube and ejector
saliva.
- Cavity is now prepared, I pass the Etch gel to the dentist to clean inside of the cavity, etch
gel stays 15 to 20 sec, then is washed using the 3 in 1 metal tip, in same time is used the fast
suction to clean the mouth. A drop of bond on a disposable micro brush is ready to pass to
the dentist and then shine the light cure for 30 sec.
- I pass to the dentist the composite shade A2 and after packing into the tooth cavity, again is
shined the light cure for 30 sec.
- When the filling is completed, dentist shaped and check the bit with the articulate paper.
Guidance Notes:
Students should state the overall aim of the process.
- Fillings are used to repair minimal tooth fractures, tooth decay, or otherwise damaged
surfaces of the teeth. In many cases, individuals with enamel loss resulting in tooth
sensitivity will notice a significant improvement or complete elimination of sensitivity once
the appropriate dental filling material is placed.
- The choice between the two materials, amalgam (silver color) and composite (white); will
depend on strength and aesthetics.
- These days we use more and more composite as technological advances have improved
these materials a lot in recent years.
