For all their good, surgical instruments can also be harmful when used incorrectly or irresponsibly. Once again, we welcome Dr. Ben Hechler to the show as he and Dr. Stucki walk us through the best practices for preventing injuries caused by dental instruments. We discover how oral surgeons view their instruments before learning of the dangers of surgical blades and dental elevators. Then, we explore the importance of jaw pressure, dental drills gone wrong, common dental instruments that also pose a threat, and the slippery tools that may cause harm if not carefully considered. We also discuss forceps and how to use them better to prevent injury, what you need to know about suture needles, the inadvertent trauma of anesthetic needles, and the value of unbridled truth.
