Dental technicians keep mouths functioning

TRANSIT CENTER AT MANAS, Kyrgyzstan - Capt. Bryan Wilson (left), 376th Expeditionary Medical Group general dentist, uses a high-speed hand piece that shoots water to cool a fractured tooth while removing an old amalgam filling on a patient while Master Sgt. Kenneth Kasper (right), 376th EMG noncommissioned officer in charge of surgical/dental service, clears the field of water and debris with suction and uses an air/water syringe to keep the mirror free of splatter Aug. 31. Capt. Wilson is also shaping the prepared part of the tooth to provide good support and retention for a new amalgam filling. The Medical Group has done root canals, fillings and extracted teeth providing the full range of general dentistry capabilities. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Nathan Bevier)
