Dr Stevenson shares some excellent foundational concepts in this video. I hope many students can derive from the wisdom shared through these videos!
Thank you, Doctor!
Your students are really lucky!!
Thank you
maannnnn...trust me those students are fortunate
Yes sooo lucky 🍀 😍😍
Here in India most professors show ego problems even in this kind of demonstrations. Thank you professor for teaching us!! 😁
Thank you.
Agree
You are the teacher I always needed but never had! More content required! ☺️
Yes - will do! So nice of you!
@@StevensonDentalSolutions I do have one question also. When working on live people the water spray restricts my view in the mirror to the point that nothing can be seen. How do you deal with that while maintaining the things said in the video?
Keep the water spray controlled - often it is way too high. Also, try moving the mirror a bit further a way. A dental assistant helps but this isn't always possible. Cut a little, the look, then cut a little then look. After a while, "you will see through the spray" like a Jedi Knight!
@@StevensonDentalSolutions Well I hope the force will get stronger with me! 😀 Can I suggest content? Maybe some more guides, tips and tricks in endodontics, full/partial dentures,tooth beared overdentures, impressions etc? But these ergonomics and basics are great cause seems to me not many people talk about it. Btw my first ceramic onlay turned out great thanks to your onlay video!
Awesome! I will - so many great ideas!
This is a phenomenal video. I have been looking for a guidance on this topic for so long and am so happy you created it. Maybe I didn't search out for enough mentorship in dental school or in private practice but I've never had an instructor teach these concepts like you. It's honestly therapeutic for me to watch these videos, learning about ways to get better. Thank you so much.
That's great! I'm so glad you've landed here as well - many more to come!
Today our professor gave us a demo about chair positioning and concluded it by giving credit to Dr.Richard Stevenson and recommended that we watch your video and I'm really glad I found it. Thanks, Dr. Stevenson!
Oh how wonderful! Thank you.
This is just perfect timing, i needed this so much, thank you !!
Thank you
Doc you are amazing!!! This is the most complete video regarding ergonomics I was searching for since so long time!
Thank you so much!
My pleasure! Best wishes, Dr. S
Thank you so much Dr Stevenson, really great content.
More videos on vision and access during crown preps maybe on a live patient would be much appreciated! Ive really needed this in recent times.
I left dentistry for 5 years and now I’m back, refreshing my knowledge here for few hours. Thank you doc.!🙌
How exciting! Keep watching.
That was SO interesting! Time really fled during this video! Thank you for this great content, subscribed 👍

So very kind of you!
Taught me more than our lecturers did in 3 hours god bless!
Great - thank you
am so glad i found this channel thank you so much during my college years they never actually taught us about ergonomics and i've graduated for 2 years but am still struggling with the indirect vision which made me very frustrated but youre video gave me hope thank you !
please make a video on endodontics and on how to obturate to be exact am also struggling with that 😅
We plan on it! Thank you!
Today I had very my first patient in operative dentistry today as a dentistry student and I had a very hard time on the distolingual surfice of tooth 24 on indirect vision. The tooth was also rotated so I felt very bad for having hard time trying to actually see and operate at the same time. This video made me feel much better, I now know this can be improved. Thank you!
Great! Hang in there - it gets easier!
@@StevensonDentalSolutions Thank you so much!

I appreciate your amazing tips about this. This is the first time I see it I have searching it for years but no one teaches details and clearly like you. We pray God bless you, Dr Stevenson and I need to share your videos to Vietnamese dentists because it is very helpful.🙏😍❤️
Thank you so much!
WOW! Superb. Thank you so much for this! I am having my operative rotation and this helps so much. Please give tips on what to do when your mirror gets splashed with water droplets while doing maxillary teeth.?
The assistant can blow air on the mirror, but if you are by yourself, move the mirror farther away.
@@StevensonDentalSolutions ahahaha I am doing my GPR currently. They dont give us assistants 😅 Thank you so much for the tip!
This was very helpful 👏
My pleasure!
Thank you sir for the video. Will be starting second year in less than two months.
Best wishes to you!
Thank you so much Sir ! This is wonderful. I have a request. Can you please show how to hold and use hand instruments as a continuation of this video. For upper teeth, I am having some hard time using hand instruments. Thank you. Really appreciate your efforts for us.
Try these for tough areas: stevensondentalsolutions.com/product/off-angle-chisel-distal/
Thank you so much Dr. Stevenson for sharing very helpful videos. I would like to know if we will be allowed during the bench exam to rotate the dental mankin to a comfortable position that would work the best for us the way you showed in this demonstrating video thanks.
Usually this is possible with a head tilt to the left or right about 30 degrees
That was superb Doc. Big love from Russia!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you Dr. stevenson for this demonstration. Can you please record video on lower 1st molar PFM or Ceramic ? Thanks a gain
Will do!
Thank you Dr. Stevenson for these amazing tutorials videos.
Could you tell us what type of loupes and camera that you used during filming videos, please?
I use Univet 5x lpu[es and a Canon Vixia HD G70 with a 2X close-up additional magnifier, mounted on a Glide Gear rack with a Manfrotto articulating arm.
@@StevensonDentalSolutions
Thank you so much dear professor for your kind replying, all of us woe you alot,
I always recommend your Chanel to my students.
Huge greetings from Yemen 🇾🇪
Dr. Stevenson, thanks so much for video. For amalgam filling 46 and 36 what should be patient position and our position? please explain, kind regards.
Please watch the other video on chair position with the manikin - I think the answers are there...If not, please reach out again, thank you!
Where can I get a dental model-manikin like that Doctor? Or what is it calleux exactly?
LEGENDARY
Thank you!
Thank you.
Thank you
thank you!
Thank you
thank you !! was struggling to do a typho maxillary class 1 since 1 week with mannequin mask on . love from 🇮🇳
Great! Glad it helped. Dr. Stevenson
Thanks so much👍🌹🙏
It is my pleasure!
Thank uuuu so much , god save and bless you
Thank you!
Hello Dr. Stevenson!
What a great video, really helpful!
I have a question though...how do you deal with the water coming out of the handpiece and striking the mirror? Or maybe some debris(?) that come out while working? What do you do in those types of situations?
Thank you for posting great videos btw!!
Wipe the mirror on patients buccal mucosa
fix the water on your handpiece, in stead of sparing water make it drip water...controle it from the chair unite
you are a legend man thanks for the help XD
Thanks for the support!
Thank you for that great information, I'm a dentistry student from Brazil, sorry about my english, but have a little question about the indirect vision. Well, when the water and the patient breath mess up the mirror its so hard to see, what i can do to revert that and have to more clean vision?
have your assistant blow air on the mirror with their air/water syringe (if you have an assistant)
Thanks dr
Happy to share.
that intro music is drilled into my head holy crap dude
Where can i buy holder for artificial jaws like this on your film? Awesome guide :)
Check out our website - Stevensondentalsolutions.com
Thank you very much for the video Dr Stevenson. The topic was really bothering me these past weeks, i am going to try it tomorrow on my preparation. I still have one more question, where should the dental assistant be positioned ? Thank you very much in advanced.
The DA should be between 1-2 O'Clock for a right handed operator. Wishing you the best!
@@StevensonDentalSolutions thank you very much. Will practice this today in my office. I wish you also the best from Germany.
You saved my life.
So happy to read this comment! Thank you for watching, Dr. S
Excellent videos doctor..Would you prep all your maxillary teeth in 12 o’clock..Which position do you reccomend for crown prep on 2 and 15?
11 for most in the mirror and 9 for some aspects like proximals with direct vision
thank you dr for this amazing content
i have a question about the finger rest
sometimes i struggle maintaining a stable effective finger rest
my (index,thumb,middle fingers) are just moving freely over my rest finger i just feel that i don't have enough control and the head of the contra tips right and left up and down
ive been 2 years in this disappointment and i keep getting bad grades for this
any help?
Try a modified pen grasp - this will stabilize the entire finger rest. Make small movements with your arm and not your fingers...
thanks !
one thing isn't clear though. if i line the handpiece, the mirror and the tooth in a straight orientation how will i be able to see when the handpiece blocks my vision ?
The mirror may be tipped to allow visualization.
Thankss
My Pleasure!
Excellent sir....coming from Nepal
I spent 4 months in Nepal years ago - I even learned Nepali. Stayed in a village called Ikudhal
Wow sir, u must visit us again and this time for educating us
I would enjoy this!
This video does help me a lot!
but the difficulty i faced was that in our lab, we usually have to put the fake face skin on (sorry don't know the specific name for that), which make the approach for posterior teeth become limited. I can't get a comfortable position and don't know where to finger rest while holding my highspeed during 16 cavity preparation because the cheek stops me from approaching from sides. Just wonder is there a smart way to deal with this situation. Thx a lot.
Tough to do at first - stay strong - it get's easier! Part of your rest fingers will need to retract the teeth - assuming rubber dam is not placed.
Hello Sir,I always find it difficult to work on palatal surface as water spray disrupts the vision. I am looking forward to get a few tips to deal with it.
It can be frustrating - a good chairside assistant can blow on the mirror continuously but this often leaves streaks and requires stopping and cleaning and restarting. Try a few things - turn the water spray down a bit, consider turning the water off completely when refining (no heat worries if you are using stall-out speeds and a light touch) and also, try holding the mirror a bit more away from the tooth.
Can you share a bit more on the feel for actually moving the handpiece? Is it like a twisting motion of the forearm or more like a pushing motion?
Each operator develops their own style. I use a modified pen grasp with subtle movements initiated with my upper and lower arm and sometimes my wrist. I rarely need to use my fingers. If you slow down the handpiece, by lifting off the rheostat, you'll be able to sense more resistance and know how to push, pull, slide lift or drop the bur as needed...
Thank you doctor!! Its really really helpful. Can i ask you a favor. Can you please do a video of cl2 max molar amalgam preparation with indirect vision. That would be really helpful. Thank you doc!!
I will add this to the queue!
Thank you so much Doctor!!
@@StevensonDentalSolutionsYes please we want class 2 maxillary molar amalgam restoration with indirect vision 🙏🙏
Thank you, Sir.
Do I have to do with the elbow on the side, when preparing?
Usually for stability and better ergonomics but not essential.
@@StevensonDentalSolutions thanks a lot.
Master!
Thank you
Hello Dr
If I am right handed,what is the best clock position to sit for quadrant 3(lower jaw)??
Usually 7 for setting up the line of draw, then back to 11-12 to gain access.
I had been getting a soar wrist and index finger and i didnt realize why until i wateched this video. your videos are priceless. Thanks heaps, You are the teacher i wish i had when i was doing dentistry. Just wondering , while im trying to hold the handpiece in a modified finger grasp way i feel im unable to use the other 2 digits as finger rests...i feel that way im not able to do many movements freely... just confused what could be going wrong here.
Try moving your wrist-arm-shoulder not your fingers - let me know
Will try that , thanks. Dr could u please make a video of complex amalgam restoration on 26 or 27 ... with a fair gap btw adjacent teeth? Ive seen the amalgam resto video u have made and it is fantastic. But i got a cavity in my exam that that mesiobuccal cusp missing... had big deep mesial n distal proximal boxes contacts were impossible to achieve as there was space btw teeth.. but my exam criteria was that u have to build the mesial distal contacts...
Regards
All the way from Australia
Will try!
Doc may i ask about mirror position when preping class 2 amalgam prep for number 2 and 15 molars especially the box area where we need to see the while walls not to mention the occlusal part
TIA
I usually try to position the mirror distal to the tooth and angle as needed. Smaller mirrors can be very helpful, like #2 and even #0. Second molars are challenging. Sometimes we must simply rely on our finger rest and bur position and then "cut a little, look a little" to get the prep completed.
@@StevensonDentalSolutions thanks alot doc
@@StevensonDentalSolutions thanks alot doc
Can you do a more detailed video on hand rests doctor? Because a lot of students dont know where to establish the hand rest correctly.
I will put this in the queue! Thank you.
