Dr. Lee Ann Brady is a nationally recognized dentist and dental educator who says her goal is to partner with patients to assist them in making the best dental-health choices. In an interview, Brady shares her experience with the new Ivory ReLeaf from Kulzer.
What are some of the challenges you face as a clinician during common dental procedures?
Keeping the field isolated from saliva, managing the water spray from equipment and retracting the tongue and cheek.
Which procedures do you find suction devices to be most useful?
All procedures, as long as the suction can be hands-free.
You were one of the first clinicians to try Ivory ReLeaf. What situations do you find it to be most effective?
It can be used with or without a bite block, so it is great for patients who cannot tolerate a bite block or have small mouths. It can also be easily taken in and out of the mouth as needed, and the patient can close their mouth, which is necessary for some procedures.
What do you see in terms of the impact on patients when using the product?
They are more comfortable as they do not feel the water pooling in their mouth and like they have to resist swallowing. It also protects the inside of their cheek.
What do you see as the value of Ivory ReLeaf to a practice?
Shorter appointments, greater daily production, enhanced patient comfort and setting your practice apart.
