Q
  • *placed pin far enough that it will retain build up, but not so far that by the time you prep your build up its not encased…you may have to prepare into the pin. If you expose the pin during prep …..
A

A: THAT’S OK. YOU WANT IT ENCASED, BUT NEVERTHELESS ITS OK to prep into the pin.

When doing a build up or foundation and putting a pin in as a general rule pins but stress on teeth (internal stress)..but somesimtes we don’t have a choice…and that’s how we attach a buildup to the core. (Generally post/pin is after endo..) but sometimes its used to retian things.

  • cant be in so far that they violate vital pulp
  • putting pin at line angle is safest place
  • post can crack teeth too
  • *placed pin far enough that it will retain build up, but not so far that by the time you prep your build up its not encased…you may have to prepare into the pin. If you expose the pin during prep THAT’S OK. YOU WANT IT ENCASED, BUT NEVERTHELESS ITS OK to prep into the pin.

Q

Smear layer

A
  1. After tooth preparation and the cre- ation of undercuts, glass ionomer is used to build the tooth up to ideal preparation form, if any defects are relatively small. Adhesion to dentin can be enhanced by removing some of the smear layer with a chemical agent. However, excessive removal of the smear layer is not recommended, because it could lead to pulp irritation.

commonly used ferric sulfate solution. Contact between the astringent and the prepared tooth surfaces must be minimized if the smear layer is to be maintained

Q

When you heat cristobalite what happens

A
  • When you heat cristobailite (in investments)or any quartz (silicon dioxide) it goes to a phase change..it expands as its heated…goes ALPHA TO BETA

Cristobalite
changes from the a to the b (high-temperature) form between 200°C (392°F) and 270°C (518°F); quartz transforms at 575°C (1067°F). These transition involve a change in crystal form, an accompanying change in bond angles and axis dimension, and a decreased density, producing a volume increase in the refractory components.

Q

Which investment has most quartz gypsum or phosphate

A

PHOSPHATE

(because they expand even more than gypsum!) *in gypsum more powder gives more expansion, but liquid for the phosphate

The principal difference between gypsum- bonded and phosphate-bonded investments is the composition of the binder and the relatively high concentration of silica refractory material in the latter.
The addition of water (Silica) to the colloidal silica suspension increases the working time, and some expansions. With gypsum water doesn’t give more expansion but powder does.

Q

What tooth do i think will recieve more wear and tear in lifetime of the mouth?

A

( lower first molars). (missing lower first molars is common thing..if space is left you get 2nd molar drifting, super eruption from maxillary, alters curve of spee and Wilson

alters function, the molars end up picking heavy balance contacts!) so we see A LOT OF BRIDGES THAT ARE PUT IN TO RESTORE THE SPACE, better solution is to endo treat first molar, shorten it, ortho upright first molar, and then restore them so swayback bridge isn’t there. (reduce and put crown on)

Q

Resistance

A

ability of crown of getting dislodged by horizontal or oblique forces

26
Q

Retention

A

risk of crown getting dislodged in a manner parallel to insertion

27
Q

Resistance factors

A

they like haviing:

minimal taper, small diameter, long prep, compete coverage, adhesive resin

28
Q

Retention factors

A

they like having: parallel taper, large surface area, molar, rough intaglio, adhesive rein luting agent

*retention depends more on shape that cement for retention.

29
Q

2 main disadvantages f using composite as a core material

A

high thermal expansion,

moisutre absorbtion

30
Q

If you do an amalgam core buildup what should you avoid?

A

amalgam avoid COPPER!!! LOW COPPER!! (COPPER GIVES MORE EXPANSION WITH MOSITURE CONTAMINATION SO AVOID THAT)

glass ionomer doesn’t need etch, just more brittle, but does release fluoride.
- if you use amalgam for buildup in a mosit environment you def don’t want to use composite resin. (moist environment..you should dry it up) if you do amalgam avoid COPPER!!! LOW COPPER!! (COPPER GIVES MORE EXPANSION WITH MOSITURE CONTAMINATION SO AVOID THAT)

31
Q

One of he ways grooves and boxes improve resitance isby

A

subjecting additional luting agent areas to compression forces on cement.

32
Q

grooves and boxes are mainly for what?

A

resistance

33
Q

increase prep height will causes on of the following:

o INCREASES BOTH RESIS AND RETENION
o DECREASES BOTH
o INCREASE RESIST DECRE RETENTION
o OR VICE VERSA

A

INCREASES BOTH RESIS AND RETENION

34
Q

Increasesed surface will benefit what?

A

RETNETION ONLY and decrease resistance.

35
Q

C&B metabond

A

chemical bonding cement

will increase bond strength.. done after your resources for resistance and retention are lost. You should then tin palte if gold and then metabond.

36
Q

Why is close marginal adaptotion important for fixes prosthess to avoid caries?

A

Close marginal adaption is important for to avoid:

DISSOLUTION OF LUTING AGENT OVER TIME WILL HAPPEN!! MOST IMPORTANT!!

also affects fixed prosthesis to avoid caries, irritation, dentinal tubule exposure
o IF YOU HAVE A TIGHT MARGIN and use zinc phosphate it will stay ther forever. Otherwise not if loose margin.

37

3 conflciting princepls of tooth preparation are

A

38
Q

on lingual axial chamfer of pfm the depth should be

A

39

40
Q

if you get sparking with electro surgery instrument you should

A

adjust the current DOWN

41
Q

If the cutting tip drags and doesnt smoothly cut you need to

A

increase the current

42
Q

electrosurgery

A

The electrode should be passed rapidly through the tissue with a single light stroke and kept moving at all times. 8. If the tip drags, the instrument is at too low a setting, and the current should be increased. 9. If sparking is visible in the tissue, the instrument is at too high a setting, and the current should be decreased. 10. A cutting stroke should not be repeated within 5 seconds. 11. The electrode must remain free of tissue fragments. 12. The electrode must not touch any metallic restoration. Contact lasting just 0.4 second has been shown to lead to irreversible pulpal damage in dogs.23 13. The sulcus should be irrigated with hydrogen peroxide before the displacement cord is placed.

Q

Anticholinergics or antisilagoues are mainly contraindicated in:

A

old ppl and those with glaucoma

  • familiar with siallorea (drooling) (antisalagoues… contraindication : glaucoma and old ppl metabolisizng) Anti- cholinergics should be prescribed with caution in older adults and should not be used in any patient with heart disease. They are also contraindicated in individuals with glaucoma, because they can cause permanent blindness. The incidence of undiagnosed glaucoma in the general population is high, and

46
Q

The principal difference between gypsum- bonded and phosphate-bonded investments is the composition of the binder and the relatively high concentration of silica refractory material in the latter.

A

remember phosphate has more silica and expands more!

47
Q

hydrocal

A

o The second form of product results when gypsum is dehydrated under pressure, and in the presence of water vapor at about 125°C
o This gypsum product is called hydrocal, and is used to make type III dental stone
o Type III dental stone is an α-hemihydrate form of calcium sulfate
o Type III stone is used in many laboratory procedures, as well as to fabricate diagnostic casts, and partial and complete dentures

48
Q

A

o The third form of dental product results when gypsum mineral is boiled in a 30% calcium chloride solution
o The chloride is then washed from the rock, and the remaining mineral is ground to the desired level of fineness

61
Q

Phosphate-bonded investment materials offer certain advantages over gypsum-bonded invest- ments.

A

They are more stable at high temperatures and thus are the material of choice for casting metal- ceramic alloys. They expand rapidly at the tempera- tures used for casting alloys, and their expansion can be conveniently and precisely controlled. The increased expansion that they exhibit results from a combination of the following factors:
