Q

what are the components of enamel? describe each

A
  • enamel rods
  • interrod enamel: located around the rod enamel, same composition as enamel rod, just different direction
  • rod sheath contains proteins, water, and lipids. perpendicular to tooth surface

Q

what is dentin composed of

A

microscopic channels called dentinal tubules, which radiate outward through the dentin from the pulp to the exterior cementum or enamel border

16
compare the composition of dentin vs. enamel
- hydroxyapatite crystals are 30 times smaller making dentin somewhat softer than enamel - dentin is duller and darker in appearance
17
what is peritubular dentin
relatively dense mineralized tissue that surrounds the dentinal tubules, composed of crystals of carbonated/ hydroxy apatite together w/ a small amount of collagen
18
what is intertubular dentin
lies between tubules, less-calcified matrix that consists of some apatite crystals embedded w/in a collagen matrix
19
what are the 4 types of dentin, describe each
primary: first dentin deposited during development secondary: dentin deposited as a process of normal aging tertiary: dentin deposited in response to trauma sclerotic: hyper mineralized dentin, darker, non-carious, not necessary to remove (happens over a very long time)
20
define pulp
connective tissue that contains blood vessels and nerve tissue which occupies the pulp cavity of a tooth
21
what are the functions of pulp
1) formative: generate primary, secondary, and tertiary dentin 2) nutritive: provides vascular supply and transfer medium for metabolic fxns and maintenance of cells and organic matrix 3) sensory: transmits afferent pain sensation 4) protective: coordinates inflammatory responses to injury
22
what is the hydrodynamic theory of pulpal pain
inflammation -> swelling of odontoblasts -> occlude dentinal tubules -> increased pressure and sensitivity to fluid movements in the tubules
23
what are the 4 causes of pulpal inflammation
1) bacterial influences 2) desiccation (overdrying dentin after etching) 3) heat damage (bur friction, polymerization of temp. & composite materials) 4) osmotic changes (sweets)
24
what are the 4 biomechanical factors affecting pulpal health
1) depth and extent of prep 2) bur used (dull) 3) bur rotation (static, too much pressure) 4) use of coolants (H2O)
25
what are the 3 numbering systems
1) Palmar notation 2) FDI international 3) universal numbering system
26
describe the palmer notation system
- 4 quadrants, maxillary right and left, mandibular right and left - numbering is 1-8 and begins at the midline
27
which numbers belong to the mandibular right area for international numbering
25-32
27
describe the FDI international numbering system
- quadrants are numbered 1-4, top right, top left, bottom left, bottom right - numbering is 1-8 and begins at the midline
28
which numbers belong to the maxillary left area
9-16
29
which numbers belong to mandibular left area
17-24
30
which numbers belong to the maxillary right area
1-8
31
what are the 7 tooth surfaces
1) buccal 2) occlusal 3) mesial 4) facial 5) distal 6) incisal edge 7) lingual
32
which are the two biting surfaces?
occlusal and incisal
33
which are the four surfaces of the anterior teeth
mesial, distal, facial, palatal
34
what are the tooth surfaces of the posterior teeth

35
what was the first caries classification and when was it created
GV black classes of cavity preparations, 1908
36

- pits and fissures of occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth - pits in the occlusal 2/3 of facial and lingual surfaces of molars
37
describe GV Black class II
smooth proximal surfaces of posterior teeth
38
describe GV Black class III

39
describe GV Black class IV
smooth proximal surfaces of anterior teeth, involve the incisal edge as well
40
which are the anterior teeth
incisors and canines
41
which are the posterior teeth
premolars and molars
42
describe GV Black class V
smooth surfaces of all teeth in gingival 1/3 of facial and lingual surfaces
43
describe GV Black class VI
incisal edges of anterior teeth and occlusal cusp tips of posterior teeth
44
what is ICDAS? what did it do?
- international caries detection and assessment system - in 2004 updated caries classification to 0-6 scores
45
what is ICDAS score 0
no or slight change in enamel translucency after 5 s air drying
46
what is ICDAS score 1
first visual change in enamel (only seen after prolonged air drying, and w/in pit or fissure)
47
what is ICDAS score 2
distinct visual changes in enamel
48
what is ICDAS score 3
localized enamel breakdown in opaque or discolored enamel (no visual signs of dentinal involvement)
49
what is ICDAS score 4
underlying dark shadow from dentine
50
what is ICDAS score 5
distinct cavity w visible dentin
51
what is ICDAS score 6
extensive distinct cavity w visible dentin (more than half of the surface)
52
what is ICDAS radiographic score 0
no radiolucency
53
what is ICDAS radiographic score RA1
initial stage: radiolucency in the outer 1/2 of the enamel
54
what is ICDAS radiographic score RA2
initial stage: radiolucency in the inner 1/2 of the enamel +/- enamel-dentin junction
55
what is ICDAS radiographic score RA3
initial stage: radiolucency limited to the outer 1/3 of dentin
56
what is ICDAS radiographic score RB4
moderate: radiolucency reaching the middle 1/3 of dentine
57
what is ICDAS radiographic score RC5
extensive: radiolucency reaching the inner 1/3 of dentin, clinically cavitated
58
what is ICDAS radiographic score RC6
extensive: radiolucency into the pulp, clinically cavitated
59
what is the ICCMS
international caries classification and management system
60
what are the 5 components of the ICCMS
history, classification, decision making, management, and risk- based
61
what diagnostic data is needed
caries risk assessment medical and dental history occlusion diet patient exam and charting intra and extra oral exam
62
what are the methods of pulp vitality testing
- electric (EPT) - temperature (cold test)
63
what are the 3 phases after identifying caries risk
phase I: emergencies, infections, prevention, gingival health, sealants phase II: simple restorations phase III: complex restorations
