84
the mercury in amalgam is safe for use in dental applications.
a) true
b) false
a) true
85
why is the mercury in amalgam safe for use in dental
applications
the mercury is chemically
bound to the other metals
to make it stable.
86
Causes microleakage around the amalgam filling
thermal expansion
87
Occurs when dental dam is not used and the particles of amalgam are flung by the bur into the gingival tissues where they remain embedded, become fibrous tissue encapsulated, and corrode to form black corrosion products

filler particles
95
allow for minimally invasive dentistry, the removal of minimal tooth structure to access and remove decay while maintaining the ability to bond to enamel and support a restoration.

96
roughens the surface during composite prep, preparing
it for bonding

97
Compared with enamel bonding, _____ bonding is far
less predictable.

that tolerate minimal amounts of water (hydrophilic) have been developed to chemically unite the composite with the moist dentin surface.

Hybridization bonding
100
steps of a composite filli
1. shade selection
2. matrix and wedge are placed
