Q

How can you improve crowns retention?

A

by limiting the number of path of insertions (to prevent the removal of the restoration along the path of insertion)

Q

What is resistance?

A

prevents dislodgment of the restoration by the forces in apical or oblique directions

21
Q

What is the ideal taper of crown prep walls?

A

6 degrees

22
Q

What does longer crown prep walls cause?

A

interfere with tipping displacement

23
Q

What can you do to improve crown retention?

A

the use of grooves and slots

24
Q

What are the types of finish line ?

A
  • knife edge
  • bevel
  • chamfer
  • shoulder
  • bevelled shoulder
25
Q

How should the margins of the crown be?

A
  • smooth and fully exposed to cleansing action
  • placed where the dentist can finish them and the patient can clean them
  • placed at gingival margin whenever possible
26
Q

What are the dimesions of MCC crown prep

A
  • Axial reduction : 1.3mm
  • Occlusal reduction on functional cusp : 1.8mm
  • occlusal reduction on non functional cusp: 1.3mm
  • Finish line:
    Chamfer 0.5mm
    Shoulder: 0.4mm metal and 0.9mm pocelain
27
Q

What are the stages of preparation for a metal ceramic crown?

A
  • occlusal reduction : tapered fissure bur
  • separation: long tapered diamond bur (5-10 degrees)
  • Buccal reduction in two planes ( apical and coronal)
  • palatal or lingual reduction - diamond chamfer bur
  • shoulder and chamfer finish: use tungston carbide tapered shoulder bur or parallel shoulder bur for shoulder
  • smooth and polish
  • check occlusion
28
Q

What is the most common reason the lab cannot construct crown?

A
  • insufficient occlusal clearance
29
Q

What would be the difficulties when placing a veneer?

A
  • heavy occlusal contacts
30
Q

What material would you use for buccal veneers?

A

composite

31
Q

Why should you keep veneer preparation in enamel?

A
  • because composite bonds better to enamel
32
Q

how to prepare veneers and what are the dimensions?

A
  • depth cuts
  • incisal reduction 1-2m
  • middle third : 0.5mm
  • cervical third : 0.3mm
33
Q

What are the types of prep for veneers?

A
  • feather
  • window
  • bevel
  • incisal overlap
34
Q

What would you say to the patient about veneers and crowns when consenting?

A
  • they will fail at some point
  • may then need something more comprehensive
35
Q

What are indirect restorations?

A

restorations fabricated outside the mouth by a technician in a laboratory

36
Q

What is an onlay?

A

an extra-coronal restoration fabricated outside the patient mouth for cuspal coverage

37
Q

What are the three types of onlays?

A

gold, composite , porcelain

38
Q

What is the reductions in preparation of onlays?(porcelain)

A
  • non working cusp - 1.5mm
  • working cusp - 2mm
  • margins - 1mm shoulder and shamfer
39
Q

What information would you give the lab?

A
  • tooth
  • material
  • thickness
  • shade
  • characteristics
40
Q

Which cement would you use to cement ceramic onlays?

A

Nexus ( dual composite resin cement)

41
Q

What cement would you use to cement MCC?

A

-Aquacem

42
Q

What type of veneer would you use and why?

A
  • overlappes incisal edge (so it has more retention and lasts longer)
43
Q

What other types of veneers are there ? (not material)

A
  • feathered incisal edge
44
Q

When to mark tooth contacts?

A
  • before preparing a tooth
  • before removing a restoration
  • after placing a crown
  • after placing a restoration
45
Q

Why did you choose a semiadjustable articulator?

A
  • it allows you to set the condylar and bennet angle
46
Q

What is an example of a semi adjustable articulator?

A
  • Denar
47
Q

What is bennet angle?

A

-The Bennett angle is the angle formed between the initial path of the mandibular condyle during lateral movement and the sagittal plane
- recorded to know the lateral shift of the mandible in lateral movement of the condyle on the non working side

48
Q

What are you reviewing when mounting casts on an articulator?

A
  • TMJ function
  • incisor relationship
  • molar relationship
  • open or cross-bites
  • guidance
  • wear facets severity of tooth-wear
  • restoration fractures
  • occlusal contacts
  • working and non working side contacts
