CSL Book 2 Blue Flashcards
2 things that can lead to class IV restoration
- trauma
- progression of class III caries
who is most at risk for trauma injuries to teeth
children
normal angle of fracture across crown
45 degrees towards palatal surface
3 special investigations with trauma cases
- clinical exam/history: discolouration of crown, mobility of tooth, position of tooth in occlusion
- vitality: at least 2 methods inc pulp tests to eliminate concussion
- radiographs: 2 views periapicals with different angulations to identify fracture lines
2 complications of trauma leading to class IV
- root fracture
- damage to adjacent teeth
is enamel bevelling usual for class IV restorations? why?
no because it removes more tooth structure.
what bevel is normal for class IV and how is it done
labial margin only is bevelled so composite can be blended with tooth structure
use D&Z850 at 45 degrees or greater to long axis of tooth –> 1mm bevel
not to edges to avoid damage to adjacent teeth
what lining to use for class IV cavities
- total etch and bond (shallow -moderate depth cavities, this is enough to seal dentine tubules)
- light-cured GIC (bonds to dentine AND composite)
- setting calcium hydroxide (when deep cavity nr pulp)
usually use GIC or setting calc hydroxide
type of wax used to box the impression in lost wax technique and why this is done 2
ribbon wax
- contain die stone, prevent distortion
- ensure the model has sufficient thickness for drilling in to its base
what type of gypsum is used for cast metal restoration
modified alpha hemi-hydrate (artificial/die stone)
thickness of model and why 2
15mm gingival margin to base
- avoids fracture during drilling
- ensures base is flat for next stage
are labial/lingual pins longer and colour of sleeve
LONG, WHITE, LIPS
labial: longer, white sleeve
lingual: shorter, grey sleeve
LONG LIPS, WHITE IS LONGER WORD
what is used to base the model
50:50 plaster stone mix
3 advantages of pindex system
- PRECISE location in to plastic sleeves
- DURABLE- plastic sleeves prevent wear
- STABLE (twin pin system- 2 pins per area –> no danger of rotation)
what can be applied to die and adjacent teeth to prevent damage/distortion, how do they work
stone die and plaster hardeners (resins in soln)
absorb in to die stone material –> seal/waterproof surface while protecting definition of margins (don’t create another layer, just blend in to surface)
what material is the plastic coping made of
polythene
thickness and positions of pieces of plastic foils
thicker 0.6mm below thinner 0.1mm (thinner one contacts the die)
0.6-0.1-die
how far above margin to trim plastic coping
1mm
size and angle of sprue
2mm
45 degrees to thickest section of wax pattern
why must sprue be fairly large
allow free flow of molten alloy
where should sprue be positioned in crucible former and why
no less than 7mm from upper edge
prevents molten alloy from breaking through when entering the mould
when is wetting agent applied and why
prior to investing
reduce surface tension–> smooth cast surface
why must investment be mixed under vacuum
eliminate air inclusions that may result in air pockets forming against pattern surface
% shrinkage of casting gold and what compensates for it
1.5%
compensated for by 3 EXPANSIONS: setting, hygroscopic and thermal of investment material
4 requirements of an investment
SERS
- produce smooth Surface to casting
- permit Escape of gases to casting
- facilitate easy Removal of casting
- sufficient Strength to withstand temps in furnace
order, time and temp of casting
-1 hour: allowed to set crucible removed -30 mins (min), 250C hotplate -10 mins 740C furcace -few minures: allowed to cool -cold water *the hotter the process, the shorter the time*
details of gold alloys
types I-IV. contain Au,Ag,Cu,Pt/Pd,Zn
I:85% gold
IV: 65% gold
melting point 950-980C
other name for class V 2 materials used to fill class V cavity
abrasion cavity
GIC, compomer
3 causes of class V cavities
- caries due to poor plaque control
- abrasion due to horizontal scrubbing when brushing
- abfracture (occlusal stresses concentrate at thin enamel near enamo-cemental junction –> fracture of enamel)
what to clean class V cavity with and why
clean to remove pellicle and surface plaque
oil, glycerine, fluoride-free prophylaxis paste (would decrease bonding,use a pumice slurry)
rubber polishing cup (not brush-may break rubber dam and damage gingivae)
what to do after washing/drying class V cavity and why 2
CONDITION: 25% polyacrylic acid with cotton wool, leave for 30s, wash for 30s,dry gently
- remove smear layer
- improve bond strength for GIC
what matrix to use for class Vcavity and why 3
cervical matrix
- forms missing surface –> contains filling material
- compresses filling material while it sets
- smooth finish surface
how long to amalgamate gic
10s
how long to press gic for and why
2 secs
rupture membrane –> polyalkenoic acid contacts aluminosilicate glass
2 advantages of encapsulated gic
- viscosity and quality are reproducible
- can be injected directly in to cavity
ratio of gic powder to liq
2:2
mixing time of gic
max 25 secs
how long to leave class 5 gic (cervical)
5 mins to ensure fully set
when to finish gic restorations and why
24hours after unless gross excess present. allows second ion exchange (with aluminium) to take place
what is used to protect gic for first 24hrs and why. how to apply
light-cured bis GMA resin (best) or varnish
stop it gaining/ losing water –> weaker
resin: leave for 30s to penetrate voids in material, light cure 20s
what to use to polish gic/compomer class v
prisma glosses
felt polishing cup (NOT rubber)
contents of compomer and why
- aluminosilicate glass (gic filler)
- acid polymerisable resin (TCB tetracarboxylic acid butate, allows methacrylate groups to polymerise in to long chains while pendant acid groups react with glass surface)
does gic or compomer have better aesthetics
compomer
why must dentine not be desicated
will prevent hydrophilic bonding resin from wetting the tooth surface
prime and bond contents
elastomeric resins and penta
contents of penta and why
phosphate ester of methacrylate. it is polar – wets surface (hydrophilic) and forms ionic bonds with apatite crystals
what matrix is used with compomer class v and what is it made of
hawe neos cervical matrix (must use transparent matric with light cured material)
cellulose actate
2 ways to increase bond strength of compomer
- non rinse conditioner: maleic and polyacrylic acids , leave for 20s then air dry
- phosphoric acid etchant: same as always, leave for 30s, water 30s, gently air dry,
