24
List the different types of GI
Type I - Luting cements for crown/bridge AQUACEM Type II - Class III and V restorations Type III - Liner/base VITREBOND Type IV - Core build up
25
List the constituents of GI
Acid - Polyacrylic acid - Tartaric acid Base - Silica - Alumina - Calcium F/Aluminium F
26
Describe the acid base reaction of GI
Glass + acid --> salt + silica gel
27
What are the 3 phases of the GI reaction
1. Dissolution - Acid reacts with glass - H ions diffuse into glass 2. Gelation - Ca ions form crosslinks - Initial set 3. Hardening - Aluminium forms trivalent bonds - Takes about 7 days to set
28
List advantages of GI (4)
- Adheres well to enamel/dentine - Thermal expansion similar to enamel/dentine - F release - Can be light cured
29
List disadvantages of GI (3)
- Technique sensitive - Brittle - Poor aesthetics
30
What is RMGI
GI with resin composite properties, set with a curing light
31
Name the constituents of RMGI
POWDER - Barium glass - Polyacrylic acid - Ascorbic acid - Pigments LIQUID - HEMA - Polyacrylic acid - Tartaric acid - Water
32
Advantages of RMGI (6)
- F release - Light cured - Stronger than conventional - Lower solubility due to resin - Can be polished immediately unlike conventional - More aesthetic than conventional
33
Disadvantages of RMGI (3)
- Polymerisation contraction - Swelling due to uptake of water HEMA extremely hydrophilic - Monomer leaching HEMA toxic to pulp
34
Describe the process of acid etchant (4)
- 37% phosphoric acid - Creates defects in enamel increases surface roughness - Removes smear layer - Leave on for 20s
35
Function of a dentine primer
Wets dentines and penetrates the dentinal tubules
36
Function of a bonding agent
Aids the retention between material and tooth and fills the space, reducing chance of micro leakage
37
When is a liner used and why?
Placed over exposed dentine - Seal dentine - Pulpal protection - Thermal insulation - Stimulation of tertiary dentine
38
Function of CaOH
Stimulates formation of tertiary dentine Used in direct/indirect pulp capping Catalyst + base system
39
Properties of CaOH
- Low thermal conductivity - Formation of tertiary dentine - pH 11-12
40
Setting time for CaOH
1.5-2.5mins
41
Name some examples of liners (4)
CaOH ZOE Zinc phosphate GI
42
What is temp bond?
ZOE Cement with sedative effect on pulp Acid base reaction

57
Describe bonding of NEXUS
- Porcelain etched with HF acid - This allows micro mechanical retention - Silane coupling agent applied to porcelain - Bifunctional molecule that increases surface energy of porcelain to allow resin bonding - One end binds to roughened porcelain surface - One end binds to composite resin cement
58
What is RELYX Adhesive UNICEM?
Self adhesive universal cement
59
Indications for RELYX UNICEM
MCC All ceramic crowns Bridges Inlays/onlays
