class 1 and rubber dam Flashcards
why do we get rid of caries? (I think that’s what its referring to -might be wrong)
- infectious desease
2. preparation ( surgical procedure) redices microorganisms
list 4 objectives of tooth preparation
- remove defects and protect pulp
- conservative cutting
- form preparation to withstand forces of mastication
- allow for functional placement of restoration
seven steps of cavity preparation are?
- outline form
- resistance form
- retention form
- convenience form
- removal of decay
- cavosurface finish
- debridement of the preparation
what are three characteristics of the outer shape or perimeter of the prep?
- FL width is 1mm ( measured with smallest amalgam condenser)
- extends slightly into occlusal primary groove ( slightly up major grooves)
- maintain marginal and oblique ridge integrity (follow contour of ridge)
what is resistance form?
internal shape produced that best prevents fracture of the filling material
5 steps of resistance form:
- amalgam preps:extend 0.5mm into dentin (clinically) on the pulpal floor
- preparation average 1.7-2mm (in typodont teeth)
- maintain marginal and oblique ridge integrity
- smooth, flat pulpal floor( perpendicular to long axis of tooth
- mesial and distal walls from 6 degree angle with pulpal floor
a. enter bur perpendicular to occlusal surface so 1/2 -2/3 of cutting length sinks into the prep
what is retention form?
internal shape that best prevents the filling material from falling out
* facial and ligual walls from right (or very slightly acute0 angle with the pulpal floor
how many classifications of tooth carries by location are there?
6
What should you know about class 1 carries (3 answers)?
- All pit and fissure carries
- can be found on premolars and molars
a. occlusal surface
b. facial or lingual surface (occlusal 2/3rds) - can be found on lingual surface of anteriors
where can class 2 carries be found?
proximal surfaces of posterior teeth
what kind of carries are class 2 - 6?
smooth surface carries!!!
where can class three carries be found?
proximal surfaces of anterior teeth
where can class 4 carries be found?
proximal surface of anterior teeth, involving incisal angle
what do class 5 carries involve?
gingival 1/3 of all teeth facially and lingually
where can class 6 carries be found?
on cusp tips and incisal edges
what 2 instruments are used?
- perio probe
2. explorers # 23 and # 17
what are 4 characteristics of tooth preparation walls ?
- axial wall is parallel to the long axis of the tooth
- pulpal floor or wall is perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth
- internal walls : pulpal and axial
- external walls : distal , facial, lingual and gingival
what is a line angle?
where two surfaces come together
