4mm
Which pin is more retentive-threaded or cemented?
THREADED
Threaded pins are _____ than their respective hole, and cemented pins are _____ than their respective hole

0.5mm
What is biological width in mm? What two anatomical tissues make it up?
2.04mm…Junctional Epithelium + Connective Tissue (so from the attachment of the gingiva to the crest of the alveolar bone)
Grooves are placed __mm deep and __mm wide in “buik tooth structure” (looks like dentin mainly)

single crown 5%, FPD abutment 11%….RPD abutment 23%
Using a post in an endo treated tooth is NOT to _______ the tooth, but only to _______ the core material.
reinforce the tooth….retain the core material

threads….BEST retention….metal
passive post-______ in diameter than the drill diameter and it is adhesively _____ to the tooth
smaller…adhesively
hybrid post- ACTIVE at the ______ area, PASSIVE at the _____ area, made of _____, and helps with mechanical _______
HYBRID = ACTIVE AT CORONAL, passive at apical area…made of metal…mechanical retention
