20 - Glass Ionomers and Composite Resins Flashcards
how are glass ionomers cured
chemical and light cured
how does phase I GI rexn occur
- silica gel coating on glass particles formed
- matrix formed between glass particles
- matrix begins to attach silica gel coating on the glass
how long does phase I GI rxn take
4-5 minutes
is glass ionomer reaction sensitive to H2O solution or upratke during this phase
YES
what happens if GI reaction has moisutre during pahse I
GI becomes soft and weaekt
what happens during GI phase II
- matrix formation completed and GI forms bond to tooth
how long does GI phase 2 take
several minutes to several hours
what phase is very sensitive to moisutre loss or dehydration
phase II
what is the liquid in GI
polyacrylic
what are the different sets in chemical cure
- initial set
- final set
what happens sduring initial set of chemical cure
- cross linkages between PAA and aluminosilicate glass
- moisture sensitive and acid soluble
final set of chemical cure
- achieves more permanent set than light cured
- bonds to tooth structurel carboxyl groups attach to calcium or dentin
how does VLC cure GI
Resin component
cures in 30 seconds
Not as moisture
sensitive because
resin forms
protective scaffold,
once polymerized
strengths of class ionomers
Pulpal response
Conservation of tooth structure
Chemically bonds to dentin and cementum
Potentially anti-cariogenic
Fluoride leaches out into surrounding tooth structure
Good retention rates
weakness of GI
Lack of translucency
Rough surface
Technique sensitive
Delay required for finishing
Chemical cure (~6 minutes!!)
Solubility–water
Poor abrasion resistance
Do not use in area of function or wear
But can be great for kids and geriatrics
What can GI be used for
- fixed luting agent
- cavity liner
- cavity base
- core build-up material
- restorative material
cavity conditioner for GI
20% polyacrylic acid (KNOW THIS)
how to use cavity conditioner for GI
- 10-20 second scrub in prep
- rinse well
- blot dry of high vac
- apply Fuji IX or Fuji II LC
what is a resin modified GI cement that LUTES and does not conventionally BOND like composite?
Fuji plus
what GI requires a dual cure
Fuji II LC
what is a packable GI (after some setting)
Fuji IX
composition of composite resins
- bisGMA or dimethacrylate resin
- filler particles (usually glass or ceramic particles)
- coupling agents (silane compound)
- pigments
- UV light inhibitor (preservative)
- photo-initiatoar (ketone source)
what determines the composite resin?
fillers and resin base
(glass particle size, glass type/distribution, type of resin)
what must you consider regarding biocompatibility of composite resin
- mostly biocompatible but some problems
- hass allergic potential
- organic compound release during degradation and funcitonal use
- resin does not totally polymerize in degradation and leaching of constiutents
- POLYMERIZATION SHRINKAGE!!
do dental resins contain and leach bisphenol A
no- some sealants do thho
two types of polymerization
- chemical cure (auto-cure 2 paste)
- photo activation (VLC)
what is combined in chemical cured composite
tertiary amine and benzoyl peroxide
in chemically cured composited when combined, what happens
free radical are generated that start the polymerization of bis GMA
