Dentistry: learning how to treat tooth decay

Almost for real!

To begin the series on Mel science's Medical Kit, we've talked about surgery. The field of dentistry also offers a wealth of practical knowledge. I

t's all about learning about tooth decay: a real public health problem. In fact, the Mel science platform reveals that over 90% of the American adult population must be treated for cavities at least once in their lives.

What to do:

To get started with cavity treatment, there are a number of equally important steps: the learner will need to :

  • Ablate (remove or destroy) the damaged part of a tooth, using a dental drill (a tool used in dentistry to shape, polish or remove dental tissue).
  • Create dental fillings using the sandwich technique (a dental restoration method consisting of using several layers of different materials to restore a tooth)
  • Examine the oral cavity using dental instruments.

What new skills are acquired?

This hands-on apprenticeship teaches you about :

  1. Dental claim forms;
  2. How dental composite works (restorative material used in dentistry)
  3. Instruments used during a dental examination.

It's a learning experience you can try out with the kids as a family.
