Popis: Rubber dam is considered as one of the gold standardin the isolation techniques .But often clinicians consider the application of rubber dam as a painful experience for children whichbrings up an uncooperative behavior in them and it hampers the treatment. The most challenging or painful part during rubber dam application is during the clamp placement. There can be many problems associated with poorly fitting rubber dam clamps. The impingement of clamp to the gingiva can often cause discomfort or painful experience. This review article highlights on various techniques ranging from clamp modification, different anesthetic agents to behavior modification techniques used to alleviate/reduce discomfort during clamp placement.
