Institute of Technology, Coimbatore –641048 (An Autonomous Institution) Approved by AICTE, New Delhi & Affiliated to Anna University, Chennai Recognized by UGC & Accredited by NAAC with A+ Grade and NBA (BME, CSE, ECE, EEE and Mechanical) Department of Biomedical Engineering Hospital Training
- 2. Revathi Medical center KEERTHANA K IV- BME- A HOSPITAL TRAINING PERIOD: 04.06.2024 TO 29.06.2024
- 3. DENTAL DEPARTMENT • The dental department focuses on providing comprehensive oral healthcare, including services such as • general dentistry (check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and extractions), • orthodontics (braces and aligners for correcting misaligned teeth), • periodontics (treatment of gum diseases), • endodontics (root canal therapy), and • prosthodontics (crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants). • It also covers oral and maxillofacial surgeries for complex procedures like wisdom tooth removal and jaw correction, cosmetic dentistry for enhancing the appearance of teeth (e.g., whitening and veneers), and pediatric dentistry tailored to children's needs.
- 4. Equipment: • Dental X-ray • Dental Chair • Light Cure Unit • Intra Oral Camera • Scaler Unit
- 5. Light Cure Unit • A light cure unit, also known as a dental curing light, is a crucial tool in dentistry used for curing dental materials such as composites and adhesives. • These devices emit light from LED source in specific wavelengths(400 to 500nm) to initiate polymerization and harden these materials. Make : Woodpecker Model: Mini S
- 6. Light Source Typically LED (Light Emitting Diode) Wavelength Usually ranges from 400 nm to 500 nm Light Intensity Measured in milliwatts per square centimetre (mW/cm²) Timer Adjustable timer settings Modes Typically offers multiple curing modes (e.g., ramping, pulse) Tip Size Different sizes available for various applications Battery Rechargeable battery Display Digital display for settings and timer SPECIFICATIONS:
- 7. Troubleshooting • Insufficient Curing: • Check light intensity output with a radiometer. • Ensure proper contact between the light guide tip and the material. • Replace or recharge batteries if applicable. • Overheating or Malfunction: • Allow the unit to cool down if it overheats. • Inspect for any visible damage or irregularities.
- 8. Calibration and Maintenance Calibration: • Place the radiometer sensor tip under the curing light tip. • Activate the curing light to measure light intensity output. • Compare with recommended values from the manufacturer. • Adjust settings or seek service if discrepancies are found. Maintenance: • Cleaning • Storage • Battery Management • Safety Checks
- 9. Scaler unit • Dental scalers utilize controlled vibrations to facilitate the efficient removal of plaque, calculus (tartar), and biofilm from tooth surfaces. • There are two primary types: • ultrasonic and sonic. Typically 28 kHz. • Ultrasonic scalers employ high-frequency sound waves to generate microscopic vibrations in a water stream. • These vibrations gently disrupt and dislodge deposits without damaging the underlying tooth enamel. • Sonic scalers, on the other hand, operate at lower frequencies but deliver a higher water flow rate. • The combined action of water pressure and vibrations effectively removes debris, promoting optimal oral hygiene and preventing gum disease.
- 11. Ultrasonic Frequency 28 kHz Power Output 10-50W Handpiece Material Aluminium alloy Handpiece Cable Length 2.5 m Water Supply built-in SPECIFICATIONS:
- 12. Troubleshooting • Low water pressure - Replace the water filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations and user manual instructions. • Weak water spray - If water pressure is adequate, check for leaks or blockages in the handpiece or water line. • No vibration from handpiece - Ensure the handpiece is securely and properly attached to the scaler unit as per the user manual. • Leaking handpiece - Replace the O-rings in the handpiece
- 13. Calibration and Maintenance Calibration: • Water Flow And Pressure Regulation • Handpiece And Tip Maintenance • Filter Replacement • Visual Inspection Maintenance: • Deeper Cleaning • Refill And Replenish • Descaling • Preventive Maintenance
