We all accidentally do things
This patient crushed her thumb in a hurry to close the car door fortunately she coming to see us and walked in in tears not in pain but thinking what will happen to it???
Will it go black and drop off or eventually die!
Thumb was laser treated immediately.
Still Stable and not gone black patient reported eventually grew out normally without complication and one happy patient.
Icy Conditions
One of our team members unfortunately had nasty fall and injured her hand, so we were able to treat her with a laser within minutes.
We followed up on the treatment for the next three days.
No scars or pain or infection.
Debris had to removed before treatment.
Trauma Case
This episode made this patient very anxious, nervous etc and parents were very worried too.
Tooth root was mobile.
GDP referred patient to me to carry out treatment and do whatever was best for patient.
By now the patient had become phobic of injections, shocked from the trauma, and had previously had a bad experience after a conventional root treatment. The prognosis of the tooth was poor if the appropriate treatment could not be provided. All the treatment was managed without injections and multiple lasers were used for treatment of the root canal and for pain management to make the child as comfortable as possible throughout the treatment.
