A Lecture and Hands-on Half Day Course Presented by Winthrop Professor Paul Abbott Rubber dam makes Dentistry a joy and much easier to practice – and patients like it! However, many dentists have yet to discover the advantages of using rubber dam. There are also many clinical and safety reasons for using rubber dam, and there is evidence that shows significantly improved treatment outcomes for restorative dentistry and endodontics when rubber dam has been used. Unfortunately, many of the techniques taught for placing rubber dam are cumbersome, difficult, time consuming and confusing with the result that operators give up and find it easier to make excuses not to use it! This course will discuss the benefits of rubber dam and several very simple ways of applying rubber dam for restorative dentistry and endodontics will be demonstrated.
