However, this is still a viable option especially if the patient has a limited budget and the concern is minimally invasive style of treatment.

Do you believe on giving alternative natural treatments? Do you advice them to your patients? If so, what alternative treatments do you advice? If not, why? Alternative or using alternative natural ingredients for dental treatment to address dental problems is quite controversial. This is also not inclusive on dental issues but on medical as well. It is very difficult for dentists to address oral problems via natural ways as we are trained to do only evidence-based treatments. However, there are cases that we may advice some natural ways of addressing dental conditions and one of these type of natural ways is gargling with salt water. Let’s discuss this and see if it does work to address or at least provide relief if not actual treatment to certain oral conditions.

Have you ever failed in your treatment not because you did the wrong procedure but because you used the wrong material or instrument or equipment for the procedure? It is a given fact that dentists majorly cannot treat without materials, instruments and/or equipment to use. Thus, it is not only necessary for us to know the basics of the procedure but the basics of what and how these materials, instruments or equipment we will use in the given procedure. This is more so critical in surgical procedures. It may sound banal and inane but the wrong handling of the suturing needle can actually cause the failure of suturing the wound properly and can affect the healing process. Thus, DMD cEnter after providing you the basic techniques of suturing is giving you the basics of the materials used for it.
