Why do we need fluid control?
Dry and clean operating field
Access and visibility
![Page 4: Fluid control and Soft tissue management in Prosthodontics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012302/55a606c81a28abed248b4706/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Sources of moisture in clinical environment
Saliva
• Salivary glands-parotid, submandibular, sublingual
The mean flow rate (+/- SD) of unstimulated saliva was 0.26 +/- 0.16 ml/min and that of saliva while chewing six different foods was 3.6 +/- 0.8 ml/min.
Blood
Inflamed gingival tissues/Iatrogenic damage
![Page 5: Fluid control and Soft tissue management in Prosthodontics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012302/55a606c81a28abed248b4706/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Water/dental materials
Rotary instruments, triplex syringe, etchants, irrigant
solutions
On a average a high speed rotatory cutting instrument
is 30 mL per minute
Gingival crevicular fluid
0.05 to 0.20 µL per minute
![Page 6: Fluid control and Soft tissue management in Prosthodontics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012302/55a606c81a28abed248b4706/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How is moisture control
important?
i. Patient related factors
Provides comfort.
Protects from swallowing or aspirating foreign bodies.
ii. Task/technique being performed
Dental materials are moisture sensitive, success of
adhesion and physical properties relies on a dry field.
![Page 7: Fluid control and Soft tissue management in Prosthodontics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012302/55a606c81a28abed248b4706/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
iii. Operator related factors
Infection control to minimise aerosol production
Increased accessibility to operative site
Improves visibility of the working field
Less fogging of the dental mirror.
Prevents contamination.

Gingival displacement medicaments
• Chemicals used along with retraction cords
are classified as
Vasoconstrictors
Astringents
![Page 86: Fluid control and Soft tissue management in Prosthodontics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012302/55a606c81a28abed248b4706/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Mechanism of action of vasoconstrictors
Physiologically restricts blood supply to the area by three ways
Decreasing the size of the blood capillaries
Tissue fluid seepage
Consequently size of the free gingiva.
(Ex: epinephrine and norepinephrine)

Merocel strips

Mechanism of action
• Expands by absorption of oral fluids and exerts
pressure on surrounding tissue

Method
About 2 mm of merocel retraction strip
Provisional crown inserted
Maintain pressure on crown for 10-15 min

Aim : to investigate the pressures generated by 4 different cordless
gingival displacement materials.
A chamber with a dimension of 5x5x2 mm was made from Type IV stone
and silicone material to simulate a rigid and elastic environment. A
pressure gauge was embedded into the wall of the chamber
The pressure generated by cordless systems is more than 10 times less
than with displacement cord, and this could result in inadequate
displacement
The median post injection pressures generated by Expasyl (142.2 kPa)
and Expasyl New (127.6 kPa)
3M ESPE Astringent Retraction Paste (58.8 kPa) and Magic Foam Cord
(32.8 kPa).

Polymerization time compatibility index of polyvinyl siloxane
impression materials
The study comprised 10 gingival displacement agents
5 conventional astringents:
(10%, 20%, and 25% aluminum chloride, 25% aluminum sulfate,15.5% ferric sulfate)
5 experimental adrenergics:
(0.1% and 0.01% HCl-epinephrine, 0.05% HCl-tetrahydrozoline, 0.05% HCl-
oxymetazoline, and 10% HCl-phenylephrine).
It is important to avoid or minimize the direct contact of chemical displacement
agents with PVS during gingival displacement and impression procedures.
15.5% ferric sulfate from CDA group and 0.01% HCl-epinephrine and 0.05% HCl
tetrahydrozoline from the EDA group were identified in this study as optimal under
clinical conditions.
