Question

What are the materials needed in a dental dam procedure?

Answer 1

There is a frame ( goes on the outside of the mouth and holds the rubber dam material in place ) There is also a clamp which goes around the tooth. Also needed is a puncher to punch the hole into the dam material, and the rubber dam material itself. There are also a little pair of plier type things...this is used to place the clamp around the tooth that is to be exposed during the procedure. If more than one tooth is involved, then several clamps are used on each anchor tooth.
