Before 2012 could only use 0.1% HP one can use up to 6%

43
Q

What is the process of home bleaching?

A

For each cycle,first cycle must be done by practitioner and for over 18 only

44
Q

What are the concerns with vital bleaching?

A
  • Trace amounts of phosphoric and citric acid might lead to low pH and demin
  • initial decrease in bond strength of composite which resolve over 7 days
  • possible cytotoxic
45
Q

Why is thre an initial decreases in composite bond strength?

A

Due to residual O2

46
Q

What is vital bleaching cytotoxic to?

A

Vascular endothelium

47
Q

What are the advantages and dis of localised resin based composite for discoloured anterior teeth?

A

AD
Useful for demarcated lesion
Dis: marginal staing, accurate colour match and reduce composite translucent and need good quality enamel

48
Q

When are veneers indicated?

A

Discolouration,
Diaestema
Mal positioned tooth
Large restoration a

49
Q

When are veneers contra indicated?

A

Poor quality tooth for bonding
Teeth to buccal in the arch
Heavy occlusal loading

50
Q

What is a good intermediate before placing porcelain veneers?

A

Composte resin
Good for children since have large pulp and immature gingival contour

For adults can be used as permanent but reversible and can be used a Dahl

51
Q

When are porcelain veneers indicated?

A

Adults

52
Q

T/F composite resins can be used directly ?

A

T

Lab made or direct

53
Q

What is the problem with composte veneers?

A

Increased labio Palatal bulk can be detrimental to gum health

54
Q

What are the disadvantages with porcelain veneers?

A

Hard to repair

Abrasive

55
Q

T/F porcelain veneers mask out gross discolouration?

A

T

56
Q

How much do you prepare porcelain veneers into teeth?

A

0.5mm

57
Q

How do you prepare the surface of the veneer?

Sand blast and the HF acid and then apply silane coupling agent

58
Q

What is a RRB?

A

A resin bonded bridge fixed to one or more unprepared or minimalist prepared natrual teeth

59
Q

What are the alternative names for RRb?

A

Adhesive
Minimum prep bridge
Maryland bridge

60
Q

What is the history begin RRB?

A

1973: Rochette used metsl wings to splint periodontal compromised teeth
Tags of resins were used to retain metal wing that had perforations on

61
Q

What are the advantages to RRb?

A
Fixed
Conservative
No La
Short clinical time
Relatively inexpensive 
Reversible/diagnostic
62
Q

What are the disadvantages of RRB?

A

Aesthetic: greying of the abutment and metal showing over
Try in of bridge can be hard
Temporising can be difficult
Extensive restore teeth cannot be used
Risk of debond and failure rate higher than conventional bridge work
Risk of caries greater if partial de bond of fixed fixed design
Technqie sensitive

63
Q

What are the failure rates for RRB? Reference

A

Djemal 1999

92% debond
4% metal fracture
2% caries

64
Q

What are the indications for RRB?

A

Single tooth replacement ideally
Unrestored abutments
Teeth with sufficient good quality enamel
Intermediate prosthesis in young patient

65
Q

What are the contras indications to RRB?

A
Heavily restored abutments
Teeth with lack of good quality enamel
Excessive occlusal loading
Poor OH
Diffuculty in isolation
Translucent incisal edge 
Disastomer
66
Q

What are the designs for a RRB?

A

Cantilever
Fixed fixed
Hybrid

67
Q

What are the features of a cantilever?

A
