JD Hardison, MI Scarlett, HE Lyon, TM Cooper, and RJ Mitchell
Department of Restorative Dentistry, University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, Chandler Medical Center, Lexington 40536-0084.

This study examines the time required to perform two routine dental procedures requiring fine hand manipulative skills--a pin placement procedure and an endodontic procedure. No significant time difference was noted in performing the procedures while wearing gloves or not wearing gloves. Twelve dentists who had routinely worn gloves for the past 6 months participated, each performing four procedures.
