Aim: To evaluate the rapidity and amount of separation of
four different types of separators (i.e. Elastomeric separators,
Dumbbell separators, Kesling springs and NEET springs) and
also the percentage of loss of these separators.
Materials and Methods: The separating effect of 4 different
types of separators (i.e. Elastomeric separators, Dumbbell
separators, Kesling springs and NEET springs) were assessed
for 3 days, and the separated space between molars and
premolars were noted separately for three consecutive days.
The number and types of lost separators were recorded
at the same time. The amount of separation between
molars and 2nd premolar in each quadrant was measured
separately with a leaf gauge (sensitivity 5/100mm) and noted
on each day.
Results: Dumbbell separators proved to be the fastest in
producing separation and they produced consistently greater
amount of separation on all three days.
Conclusions: The Dumbbell separator would be ideal for
situations where in rapid separation is needed, and also
in cases where in the patient comes with the loss of
separators. |
