18
Q

Should the class 3 prep be done parallel or perpendicular to long axis of tooth?

A

Perpendicular

19
Q

The purpose of the bevel is to ____ the bond to the tooth

A

Increase

20
Q

Can you bevel dentin and cementum?

A

No

21
Q

Same principles as Class III BUT the incisal angle is missing
◦Increase in restorability difficulty level!

A

Class IV Prep

22
Q

Increase the bevel and extend beyond the bevel with the resin for more ______ and a better ______ appearance.

A

retention; esthetic

23
Q

Should you use tofflemires or clear matrices for class 3 and 4 composite restorations?

A

Clear matrices

24
Q

______

  • Increases retention
  • Reduces microleakage
  • Sides of enamel rods don’t bond well
A

Bevels

25
Q

What 2 portions of the tooth can’t be bevelled?

A

Cementum

Dentin

26
Q

Bond strength to natural sclerotic dentin is __-__% lower than to sound cervical dentin-REMOVE with bur

A

25-40%

27
Q

◦Flexure and fatigue of enamel and dentin
◦Caused by occlusal forces
◦Stress is concentrated at cervical area of tooth, causing fractures

A

Abfraction

28
Q

What are the 5 instances when a non-carious cervical lesion needs to be treated?

A

◦Lesion is deep enough to compromise tooth
◦Sensitivity
◦Involved in partial denture design

◦Defect contributes to a periodontal problem

29
Q

What type of composite is best for abrasion?

A

Flowable composite

30
Q

◦From mechanical or chemical stimuli
◦Temperature changes
◦Air drying
◦Osmotic pressure
A

Hydrodynamic Theory of dentin sensitivity

31
Q

Causes of _______

◦Includes iatrogenic from polishing instruments

A

Tooth Sensitivity

32
Q

What is the component of sensitivity toothpaste that helps sensitivity?

A

Potassium Nitrate

33
Q

_____ is a desensitizing agent placed by dentist when prepping tooth
-Place after etching

A

Gluma

34
Q

How do treatments help sensitivity?

A

Block fluid movement in dentinal tubules
