  Masalah gusi bernanah atau dental abcess kerap berlaku bukan hanya di kalangan orang dewasa malahan kanak-kanak.Kes di atas adalah seorang pesakit di Klinik Pergigian Syarifah cawangan Kuantan yang datang dengan aduan sakit yang amat sangat,berdenyut-denyut dan tidak dapat tidur malam di bahagian depan rahang atas beliau.   Apabila pemeriksaan di lakukan didapati gigi hadapannya gigi 21 mobile grade2 dan tiada lubang atau carious gigi didapati pada gigi beliau.Apabila di soal selidik,didapati pesakit pernah terlibat dalam kemalangan jalan raya yang pernah mengakibatkan "Dental Trauma" pada gigi depan beliau yang mengakibtkan gigi beliau mati.   Oleh kerana beliau tidak dapat tidur malam hampir 3 hari  meskipun telah mengambil antibiotik dan ubat tahan sakit kami telah mengeluarkan nanah bagi meredakan kesakitan dan membuat rawatan akar (root canal treatment ) RCT bagi gigi yang terlibat bagi mengelakkan kejadian yang sama daripada berulang kembali.Jangan go...

Self -ligating bracket (NEW TECHNOLOGY IN ORTHODONTIC)

The Damon System is a proven combination of passive self-ligating brackets, force-calibrated archwires and minimally invasive treatment protocols that work together as a low-friction system. The Damon System eliminates the need for traditional mechanics that may require more frequent tooth extractions. Because the Damon System employs a lower ligation force, frictional resistance is minimized, leading to less unwanted forces in magnitude and direction. This facilitates more efficient treatment modalities. As a result, you can provide your patients with fast, comfortable treatment and fewer appointments. The Damon Difference Elastic ligatures create friction and binding and require more force and more-frequent adjustments. Damon passive self-ligating brackets allow freedom of movement and thus faster results with gentler forces. It’s the biologically sensible way to improve tooth position and facial aesthetics. Clinically Proven Advantages     Up to 7 months’ fast...
