Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a dental material that is used in a variety of procedures, including:
Pulp capping: This is a procedure that is used to cover the exposed pulp of a tooth. MTA is a good choice for pulp capping because it is biocompatible and stimulates the growth of new tissue.
Apexification: This is a procedure that is used to close the apex of a tooth that has not fully developed. MTA is a good choice for apexification because it is radiopaque and seals the tooth from the surrounding tissues.
Repair of root perforations: This is a procedure that is used to repair a hole in the root of a tooth. MTA is a good choice for repair of root perforations because it is biocompatible and seals the hole from the surrounding tissues.
Root-end filling: This is a procedure that is used to fill the end of a root canal. MTA is a good choice for root-end filling because it is biocompatible and stimulates the growth of new tissue.
OPTIMALLY – THE PERFECT ALLOY FOR PAEDIATRIC CROWNS:
Kids Crowns are made from Optimalloy, which is the result of years of collaborative research between Shinhung and Department of Paediatric Dentistry of Seoul University, Korea
Optimalloy is a stainless steel alloy that was specifically created to have extraordinary metallurgical properties that are ideal for use in paediatric patients
PERFECT SIZE AND SHAPE:
Kids Crowns are about 1.5 mm shorter than the competition. Thanks to these optimum dimensions, arrived at after significant research, Kids Crowns require less trimming, contouring and crimping
Kids Crowns save precious time owing to their pre-festooning in the gingival area
STRONG WHERE NECESSARY, SUPPLE WHERE NEEDED:
Kids Crowns are built to last with their strong occlusal surfaces that resist abrasion and perforation
Pliable cervical areas make contouring and crimping easy
EXTRAORDINARY BIOCOMPATIBILITY:
The accurate anatomy and high surface gloss prevent food accumulation
Kids Crowns have low nickel content compared to the competition. Along with their bio-identical ceramic coating, they make an incredibly biocompatible restoration
There are six possible sizes for each deciduous molar providing a wide degree of choice to the clinician when it comes to selecting the appropriate restoration. Here is a chart demonstrating the different sizes:
The Molar Band Is A Metal Ring That Surrounds The Molar, Where A Tube Is Usually Soldered Through Which The Arch And Accessories That The Treatment Needs Are Passed.- The Band Aims To Cement To The Molars To Exert Orthodontic Forces On Them.
