Instructions:​A 35-year-old man in general good health arrives at the dental office complaining of upper right first molar tooth sensitivity for the past month. This is triggered when he drinks cold beverages or when he breathes cold air. This cold sensitivity does not last very long once the stimulus is removed. The tooth does not hurt when he bites. After a clinical examination and evaluation of a radiograph, the dentist informs the patient that there is a moderate-to-deep cavity in the tooth. The dentist decides to remove the cavity in order to better evaluate the patient’s treatment and restorative options.How would the dental assistant set up the room with respect to restorative materials?

Treatment of the patient and restorative Options:
Restorative dentistry as the name suggests is meant to restore the function of a tooth or teeth by bringing it back to its natural state so that the whole set of teeth can function properly and can bring the smile back in the person. Restorative options are also done so that other adjacent teeth are not affected and the problem can be arrested and rectified at an early stage.  In our case here the restoration option is to remove the cavity from the patient’s tooth.
