filler
polymer

23
Q

Polymerisation shrinkage plays a significant role in restoration failure which can lead to …. 4 things

A
  1. gap formation
  2. secondary caries formation
  3. marginal leakage
  4. post-operative sensitivity
24

A

“depth of cure”

25
Q

On curing a limited thickness of composite undergoes ………… so composites have a limited …… ……… …….

26
Q

3 types of composites

A
  1. Nanocomposites
  2. Flowable composites
  3. Bulk filled composites
27
Q

4 Properties of Nanocomposites

A
  1. nano sized particles (very small)
  2. low polymerisation shrinkage
  3. good aesthetics
  4. high flexural strength
28
Q

Nanocomposites have a very smooth surface which makes them have a high polish retention which makes them good for (5)

A
  • long lasting aesthetics
  • reduced plaque adhesion
  • reduced risk of secondary caries
  • reduced risk of gingival inflammation on class V
  • high oral comfort
29
Q

Flowable composites gives rises to ….. …….. ……..

A

high contraction stresses

30
Q

Flowable composites have a reduced amount of …… ……. making them a lot more …….. but with a higher shrinkage rate

A

filler content
flexible

31
Q

Flowable composites are now recommended to only us as 3 things

A

liners
fissure sealants
small restorations

32
Q

What does pre-warming composite do

A

Enhances flow of composite as viscosity decreases , better for placement

33
Q

What are bulk-filled composites

A
  • composites that do not require incremental curing
  • can cured up to depths of 4-5mm
