title: Customized and low-cost aspirator device for intra-oral sandblasting.
abstract: This paper presents a simple technique that uses a novel device made of low-cost materials and is very helpful in routine clinical activity. This device plays an important role in reducing the suspension of particles in the air when a sandblaster of aluminum oxide powder is used intraorally to create additional micromechanical retention prior to applying a bonded restoration.
