Effect of Rubber Dam on the Value of Dental Pulp Pulse Oximetry in Primary Molars


Abstract in English

Many factors affect dental pulp pulse oximetry technique (PO), as recipient signals may reflect not only pulpal blood flow, but also may mixed with signals of blood flow of the periodontal or gingival tissues. To evaluate the effect of isolation of the periodontal tissues apart from the dental crown using rubber dam; during pulpal blood oxygenation of the deciduous molars.
