Q

What is decomposition in setting reaction?

A
  • Acid dissolves in water – forms viscos solution with glass spread
  • H+ ions dissociate from COOH groups on polyacid + displace cations on surface of glass

Q

What is Gelation in setting reaction?

A

• Cations form cross links in polymer chains > longer polysalts form, modified glass surface becomes a silica gel

Q

What does excess water do ?

A

Contamination >Increases opacity, decreases strength + harness

20
Q

What does loss of water do ?

A

Desiccation >Increases crazing/cracking

21
Q

How is bonding to tooth structure via GIC ?

A
  • Ca2+ ions present in HAP, form cross links with PA chain

* chemical bond to enamel structure – seals against bacterial ingress

22
Q

How does GIC bond to dentine?

A

polyacid chains bond to collagen in dentine via carboxyl/amine groups via Hydrogen bond

23
Q

What does GIC release?

A
  • Fluoride released from glass by acid attack (polyacrylic)
    o Ions =free to move
    o Ions contribute to biocompatibility of material + capacity to inhibit recurrent caries
24
Q

What does biocompatibility describe?

A

materials property of being compatible with living tissue
o Plaque can’t thrive on GIC surface
o S. Mutans growth is inhibited by restorations

25
Q

What can the freshly mixed cement of pH 0.9-1.6 lead to ?

A

lead to a mild inflammatory pulpal response

26
Q

What promotes dentine bridge formation ?

A

o Direct pulp capping material

27
Q

Indications of GIC?

A
  • Cementation of rigid restorations e.g. bridges/veneers
  • Restorations of primary teeth
  • Class III/V carious lesions
  • Crown margin repair
  • Forms a base under amalgam/composite
  • Temporary restorations – carious cavities/ fractured tooth
28
Q

What are cemerts?

A
  • Silver particles fused with glass
  • poor aesthetics
  • Mechanical properties are worse
29
Q

What are indications of cemerts ?

A

A

•GIC with addition of a small quantity of resin components

35
Q

What mods. are done to RMGIC?

A
  1. Water replaced by water/HEMA mix. (vitremer)

2. Mod. of polyacid side chains that polymerise by light curing mechanism (fuji II + Photac-fil)

36
Q

What is hydroxy ethyl methacrylate

A
  • Polymerises when exposed to light

* irritating and can be allergic to acrylate resins
