Process for minimal time tooth capping

摘要

A method for making caps of eight different sizes for each of a persons teeth allows premaking caps that will fit almost any tooth of any patient; caps are preferably prepared from a commercially available quartz or silicon dioxide filled acrylic material called Artglass +E,crc r+EE ; the caps allow curing a material such as Charisma +E,crc r+EE with ultraviolet light thereby allowing a practitioner to place a cap containing Charisma +E,crc r+EE over a tooth prepared for capping; settle the cap in place; remove any excess and expose the capped tooth with a ultraviolet light for about three minutes to form a solidly capped tooth in one visit to the practitioners office.
