  • Title: Techniques to enhance success in placement of tetracycline fibers as a periodontal therapy.
    Author: Davis MW.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 1998; 46(1):62-5; quiz 66-7. PubMed ID: 9667164.
    Abstract:
    This article proposes specific clinical techniques as a component of periodontal therapy which can be used to enhance successful placement and retention of fibers containing tetracycline. Potential problems that may lead to clinical failure are also addressed and modalities to overcome these obstacles are suggested. This treatment technique need not be limited to the periodontal specialist. The general dentist, with clinical experience in restorations, may possess superior skills needed for optimal clinical success.
