Q

3 special investigations with trauma cases

A
  • 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

Q

what bevel is normal for class IV and how is it done

A

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

Q

what lining to use for class IV cavities

A
  • 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

77
Q

how to make holes for pins EAR
