Q

what happens if pins are not totally seated?

A

YES! pliers but never reuse a nicked pin

23
Q

A

Super Sep flows easier. Vaseline clumps thus possibility of void

24
Q

when measuring the cast, do you measure 15-18 mm to the cervix of the tooth or to the occlusal surface?

A

occlusal surface

25
how many mm bevel at base of cast? why?
3 mm bevel allows for easier separation between HardRock pour and FlowStone pour
26
T/F: short pins are circled, long pins just have X
TRUE
27
what should you use to continue to drill hole if the pin doesn't go all the way in
hand reamer
28
what is the name of the adhesive to put the pins in
liquid cyanoacrylate

FACIAL! to give more space between the pins
31
do you use the whole thickness of the boxing wax or half the thickness? do you place the cut or uncut side down
half lengthwise; place uncut side down
32

1. separate die 2. removable die (pindex)
40
advantages of separate dies
1. no addn procedures needed to create a die other than making two casts (a full-arch and a sectional) 2. keeps relationship between abutments fixed and immovable 3. easier to obtain physiologically harmonious restoration contours when fabricating wax pattern
41
disadvantages of separate dies
transferring of wax pattern between 2 casts lead to distruction of internal aspect of wax up
42
T/F: a properly trimmed die means the handle with be at an angle
FALSE. will not have an angle and at 1 inch long
43
what can you use to trim the die
acrylic bur (pear shaped one) and can shape with scalpel
44
die contours should be what length
at least 4 mm
45
should the preparation finish line on the die be outlined?
yes with red pencil
46
where should you place die relief
preparation portion of the die
47
types of antirotational devices used for removable dies
1. flat-sided single dowel 2. double straight dowels w/ a common head 3. two separate parallel dowels
48
how many mm extension of FlowStone
4 mm but actually 3 mm bc taking into account the bevel
49
should you be able to see the end of any of the long pins at the base of the FlowStone
YES
50
should you carve FlowStone until you can see the bevel
YES
51
how can you cut the stone
with a diamond disc or hand saw but use the diamond disc
52
do you put plaster on the whole blue base
