Q

4 personel involved in decon

A

Operator - authority to operate equipment, note readings and simple housekeeping duties
Engineer - annually and quaterly testing of machines
User - person in charge of day to day management - daily testing and maintence records
Manager - person in authority for the operation of LDU and ensuring instruments fit for use

28
Q

What water is used for final rinse in decon and why not mainis?

A

RO (reverse osmosis)
Due to mains having minerals that can be deposited on the surface of insturments

29
Q

Describe the apperance of dental fluorsie

A

A white chalky appearance or can appear like brown stains on teeth, they have scattered marks and tends to be symmetrical

30
Q

% fluoride optimum in drinking water

A

1ppm

31
Q

£ methods for fluoride in 8 year old

A

225ppm mouthwash
22,600ppm fluoride varnish
14500ppm flurodie toothpaste

32
Q

Local action of fluoride in oral cavity

A

Fluroapatite forms during the reminerlisation process
Fluoride ions replace hydroxly grous in the formation of apatite crystal lattice
Combines with calcium and phosphate to form fluroapaitie which is more resistant to deminalisation
It also inhibits bacterial metabolism and acid production

33
Q

Best treatment for fluorisis

A

Microabrasion - permanent results, cheap, effective, conservative and easily prefomred

34
Q

10 year old appears wth bad taste and gernalised white plq that scraps off and leave erythamtous base

A

pseduomebranous candidosis

35
Q

Predisposing factors for pseduomebranous candidodis

A

Local -use of coriticosteriod inhaler, URA
Medical - diabetes, immunocompromised

36
Q

Oral wab vs oral rinse

A

Oral swab - site specific, not quantitive,
Oral rinse - not site specific and quantitive

37
Q

1st line drug for pseduomebranous candidosis

A

Fluconazole

38
Q

Interactions of fluconazole

A

Warfarin - increases bleeding risk
Statins - skeletal muscle breakdown (rhabdomylosis)

39
Q

Describe the method of how composite bonds to teeth

A

the surface is etched to remove the smear layer and reopen the deintial tubules
Primer (HEMA) is then applied to change the surface from hydrophillic to hydrophoibic
Residue adhsive agent is applied and when polymerising it flows int othe dentina ltubles to form resin tages and polymer chains will also beocme entablge with collagen fibres to give micromechanical retention (hybrid layer)
Composite can then bond to the hydrophobic adhesvie surface

40
Q

How is porcelain treated to improve retention

A

Sandblasting of the fitting surface and hydroflouric acid to eatch the surface and then a silane coupling agent

41
Q

2 luting agents other than resin to cement crown

A

GI/RMGIC
Zinc polycarboylate

42
Q

Advantage of placing crown on posterior tooth

A

Aloows cuspal coverage to rpovide support and retention for remaining tooth

43
Q

5 causes of pain on biting and trainsent stimuli to 46 comp

A

Cracked tooth
The resotration is toot high and therefore high occlusion
Pulpal damage due to excessive heat during cavity prep with high speed
Uncured HEMA which expands due to moisture
Resual resin monomer cuasing pulpal inflammation

44
Q

5 resotrative features to prevent this from happening

A

Check occlusion with articulating paer and adjust
Ensure water is used in cavity prep with high speed
low polymerisation factor to prevent polymerisation shrinkage stress
ensure good curing regime is used
incremental placement to prevent soggy bottom
