Special Exercises When a Dentist Puts a Crown or Bridge in Your

question 90

Short Answer

Special Exercises
When a dentist puts a crown or bridge in your mouth or just fills a cavity, there is a natural curing time for the material used. In years past, dentists would advise patients who had had such dental work to avoid hot and cold substances, gum, taffy, and hard candy for at least 48 hours. However, there is a polymer light technique that cures the composite and requires the patient to take no special precautions. For years, Dr. Brown has avoided buying any new equipment. He is a rational thinker and uses rational decision making. The following is what took place when Dr. Brown decided to purchase some new equipment. Put them in the order according to the rational decision-making model.
a. Dr. Brown fills the same cavity for the fourth time for a young boy who loves to eat taffy.
b.Dr. Brown decides to buy the Apollo eLight because it is cordless, guarantees safety, and cures composite materials in six seconds.
c. Dr. Brown discovers that there are 30 manufacturers of curing lights.
d. Dr. Brown buys the Apollo eLight made by Dental/Medical Diagnostics, Inc.
e. Dr. Brown calls patients on which he has used the polymer light technique and makes sure that they have had no adverse reactions.
f. Dr. Brown discovers that over half the curing lights available have heat output, six have cords, and only three can cure composite in less than 10 seconds.
