Moisture Control in Dentistry Dr. Asmat Jameel
B.D.S, F.C.P.S Assistant P f A i t t Professor & Head Department of Preclinical Dentistry

Objectives
• The understanding of the importance of effective moisture control in the clinical practice of dentistry • Th understanding of th diff The d t di f the different methods of t th d f moisture control in the clinical setting. • To demonstrate the safe and effective use of various moisture control methods in the clinic

A. Sources of moisture in the clinical environment: • i. Saliva: - from salivary glands. (parotid, submandibular, sublingual) ( tid b dib l bli l) • ii Blood: ii. - inflamed gingival tissues. - iatrogenic damage. g g • iii. Gingival crevicular fluid: -inflamed gingival tissues.

• iv. Water/dental materials: - from rotary instruments. - water from triplex syringe syringe. -materials we may use during treatment [eg. etchants, [eg etchants irrigant solutions] solutions].

B. Why is moisture control important?
i. Patient related factors • C f t Comfort. • Protects patients swallowing or aspirating foreign bodies. • Protects patient soft tissues – tongue, cheeks by retracting them from operating field.

Example
“A small round bur detached from the slow speed handpiece and lodged in patients’ left bronchus….. The patient bronchus underwent a thoracotomy to retrieve the bur

ii. Operator related factors
• I f ti control; to minimise aerosol production. Infection t l t i i i l d ti • Increased accessibility to operative site, allowing greater convenience and efficiency of operative. • Procedures (e.g. patient’s “need to swallow”) causes fewer problems. p y g g • Improves visibility of the working field and diagnosis. • Less fogging of the dental mirror. • Prevents contamination of cavity preparation/ root canal. • Haemorrhage from gingiva does not enter operative site. site

iii. Task/technique being performed: • Dental materials are moisture sensitive, success of adhesion and physical properties relies on a dry field.

i. i Aspiration:
High volume aspiration. • High volume vacuum (large diameter tip, autoclavable or disposable). • Operated from vacuum unit. Application: • Suitable to remove -large particulate matter l i l -water from high speed drills -air water sprays i t

Cont. Cont
Saliva ejector.
• Low volume small diameter tip volume, tip, usually disposable. • Flexible plastic tubing with protective flange. fl • Routine saliva control. • Can be placed under rubber dam. p • Best used to remove small amounts of moisture. • Can be used in conjunction with other methods of moisture control.
slide 12

Cont. Cont
• Advantages: •Cheap, easy to use (can be held by patient). •Some have flanges attached which can retract tongue and floor of mouth. • Disadvantages: •Can be uncomfortable for patient if used inappropriately. inappropriately •May cause soft tissue damage; care must be taken not to suck in patients tissues into the tip. •Active tongues can make placement difficult. •Low volume aspirators don’t remove solids well. slide 13

ii. Air-Water-Syringe: ii Ai W t S i
Application: • Air blast useful to dry tooth or soft tissues during examination or used during operative procedures Advantages: Ad t
• Easy to use. • Needs greater caution with use as can dehydrate dentine and cause pain and discomfort to patient g ; j • Not effective if large volumes of moisture; can just transfer moisture from one tooth to the next.
slide 15

Disadvantages:

iii. iii Absorbent materials
• Cotton rolls, pellets, gauze, cellulose wafers. Application: • Cotton rolls (placed in buccal or lingual sulcus) and cellulose wafers (placed in the buccal sulcus). Can place cotton rolls over parotid d id duct to control parotid fl l id flow • Are used to absorb saliva and other fluids for short periods of time eg; any examinations, fissure sealants, polishing
slide 16

slide 17

Cont. C t
• Can be used with other methods of moisture control eg saliva ejector When removing cotton rolls or cellulose wafers make sure they are moist to prevent inadvertent removal of the epithelium

slide 18

Cont. C t
• Advantages: • Effective to control small amounts of moisture • Retract soft tissues at same time • Disadvantages: • Only provides short term moisture control • Ineffective if high volumes of fluid • Active tongues and shallow sulci may make placement and retention difficult
slide 19

iv. Rubber dam
Total T l moisture control method i l h d
Application: • Isolation of one or more teeth from the oral environment. • Rubber dam eliminates saliva from the working field d l fi ld and also retracts soft t t ft tissues

Advantages:
• Complete, long term moisture control • Maximises access and visibility • Protection for both patient and dentist • Infection control measure • Prevents accidental swallowing or aspiration of foreign bodies • R t t soft tissues Retracts ft ti • Increases operator efficiency • Improved properties of dental materials

Disadvantages:
• Claimed that it takes time to apply • Communication with patient can be difficult • Incorrect use may damage p y g porcelain crowns/crown margins/ traumatise gingival tissues • Patient may feel incomfort or phobic with it on • Insecure clamps can be swallowed or aspirated
slide 26

v. v Pharmacological methods
• Use of local anaesthetic with a vasoconstrictor • eg Adrenaline: causes transient vasoconstriction of blood vessels in site of injection May control injection. haemorrhage in some situations

Cont. C t
Advantages:

• Used as an adj nct to control gingi al adjunct gingival bleeding when use of retraction cord is not sufficient

Disadvantages:

•I Invasive, patient may not want LA needle i ti t t t dl • Will be numb for a while p g • Not effective if profuse bleeding

Cont. C t
• Use of chemicals inhibit salivary secretion eg, atropine, methantheline bromide • Chemical method of. Is administered orally 1-2 hours prior to the procedure and causes temporary dry mouth (Acts on the sympathetic nervous system). Very rarely y p y ) y y used as a moisture control method

• Advantages:
• Used to control patient with excessive salivary flow when other methods ineffective

• Disadvantages:

vi. vi Gingival retraction cord
Application: • Special type of cord either knitted or twisted that is placed gently into the gingival sulcus and stretches the circumferential gingival fibres. • Provides isolation and retraction of the gingival tissues eg when d i restorations i cervical ti h doing t ti in i l area or when unable to apply rubber dam. • Ab b gingival crevicular fl id and can also b Absorbs i i l i l fluid d l be soaked or impregnated with vasoconstrictors and thus be useful in controlling minor amounts of gingival bleeding. bleeding
