Why I Prefer Warm Vertical Obturation Over Single Cone

January 7, 2020 by reid pullen Leave a Comment

Reid wrote an article for Dentaltown about how he prefers warm vertical obturation over single cone, which reduces postoperative problems and makes Reid and his patients happy.

In the first installment of a two-part series, a Townie endodontist explains why he prefers warm vertical obturation over single-cone techniques.

Difficult Patient Circumstances?

December 20, 2018 by reid pullen Leave a Comment

Everyday, all day, we deal with patients. Some are easy, some are grumpy and some just are downright difficult. In our patient communication series we continue discussing how to effectively talk to the patient.

In these videos I discuss:

What do you say to a patient who has an apical lesion but doesn’t have any pain and does not want treatment? Try this little trick and see what happens.

 

What do you say to a patient regarding the success rate of endodontic treatment? Clear communication can alleviate later problems if the endodontic treatment fails.

Gentle Dentist or Creepy Santa?

December 20, 2018 by reid pullen Leave a Comment

Easing the patients fear is an important part of dental treatment. By clearing explaining treatment and getting the patient fully anesthetized we can continue as the Gentle dentist and not creepy Santa.

Don’t be a Creepy Santa.
