Q

Enamel Bonding vs Dentin Bonding

A

Enamel Bonding
* Reliable
* Predictable
* Shear bond strength=20+ MPa
* Etching: Turns low surface energy surfaces to rough high surface energy surfaces w/Increased wetting

Dentin Bonding:
* Just as strong
* Not as reliable or predictable

Q

Why is it hard to bond to dentin?

A

Composition:
* dentin has more organic and water (not affected by acid) & Less mineral

Structure:
* enamel rod’s= parallel
* Dentin: collagen=bowl of spaghetti

Depth:
* The Deeper you go= Larger & more number dentin Tubules= Decreased bond strength

Smear Layer:
* decreses dentin permeability

Q

Etch

A

30-40% phosphoric acid
* 15 seconds
* Rinse w/water for 10 seconds

Removes smear layer
* Cleans surface debris

  • Etched Enamel: Chalky, creates microporosities
  • Etched Dentin: exposes collagen layer; widens dentin tubules

Q

Self Etch Systems

A

Less powerful etch
* Decreased Post-op sensitivity
* weaker bond= doesn’t completely remove smear layer
* Recommend: Carbide burs only-leave less smear layer

6th Gen:
* Etch/Primer
* Bond

7th Gen
* Etch/Prime/Bond

Q

Composite Resins

A

Resin Matrix: Bis-GMA
* leach bisphenol A (BPA)–> wear of composite or uncured resin
* Negligible side effects

Filler Particles: Silica
* radiopaque
* affect composite properties

Coupling Agent: Silane
* adhesion b/w Filler & Resin

Q

Larger Fillers vs Higher Filler content

A

Larger Fillers:
* more strength
* Don’t polish or wear (rougher) as well

Higher Filler Content= Less water absorption

Q

Self Cure vs Light Cure Composite

A

Self Cure Composite: 2 paste system
Benzoyl peroxide=intiator
Tertiary Amine: activator

Light Cure Composite: 1 Paste System
* Camphorquinone=initiator
* 468 nm light initiates polymerization

Q

Polymerization shrinkage

A

Composites shrinks 2-3% as they polymerize

C-Factor=Configuration factor
* =ratio of bound to unbound surfaces

GV Black class is inversely related to C factor
* The higher the class, the lower the C factor

Q

Compare Glass Ionomer & Composite Resin

A

Glass Ionomer
* Acid: Polyacrylic acid
* Base: FA Glass
Retention: Chemical Bond (Calcium Chelation)
* Self Adhesive (no prime or bond)
Strength: Weaker vs composite:
* FL release

Composite Resin:
* Matrix: Bis-GMA
* Filler: Barium silicate glass
* Light cure or self cure
Retention: Micromechanical bond
Strength: Stronger vs GI
* No Fl release

17
Q

Resin-Modified Glass Ionomers (RMGI)

A

Sets by:
* acid-base rxn
* Free-radical addition polymerization (Light &/or chemical cure)

More rapid polymerization bc of free radical initiation
Releases FL
Stronger than Glass Ionomer

18
Q

Compomers

A

Aka: Polyacid-Modified Resin Composites

Anhydrous (Water free) Single pastes
* contains the major ingredients of Composite resin and Glass Ionomer
* EXCEPT WATER

Used in ortho
* slower polymerization (more time to clean up excess)
* Releases fluoride

19
Q

Ionomer-Modified Composites

A

Sets only by Polymerization

But contain ion-leachable glasses (=Fl release)
