by Dr. Josh Wren
Anesthetic techniques, pulp therapy (including indirect pulp therapy, pulpotomy and pulpectomy) and stainless steel crowns are procedures that should be mastered by all dentists who treat children. While often considered difficult procedures, they are simple with the correct diagnosis, technique and armamentarium. This course is a must if you are treating children in your practice!

Space maintainers discussed in this course include wire nance, lower lingual holding arch (LLHA), band and loop, distal shoe, and distal band and loop. Our basic goal as dentists treating children is to prevent decay, pain and space loss. The latter is the most overlooked.
