Current Adhesives and Composite Bonding Flashcards
attraction between similar molecules or atoms
Cohesion:
attraction between unlike molecules, attraction between two contacting surfaces
Adhesion:
: material bonded to another material by means of an adhesive
Adherend
: substance that promotes adhesion
Adhesive
: joining two materials by means of an adhesive
Adhesive Bonding
_______ adhesion classification:
◦Interlocking
◦Undercuts, surface irregularities
◦THIS IS THE DENTAL ADHESION MECHANISM
Mechanical Bonding
-the ability of a liquid to maintain intermolecular contact with a solid surface
Surface wetting
Is enamel bonding or dentin bonding more predictable?
Enamel
Chemical “drilling”
◦30-40% phosphoric acid is most effective for enamel retention
◦Removes about 10 microns
Creates porous layer 5-50 microns deep
Acid etching enamel
What type of enamel etching?
“honeycomb” from dissolution of prism CORES
Type 1
What type of enamel etching?
“cobblestone” from dissolution of prism PERIPHERIES
TYpe 2
What type of enamel etching?
combination of I and II
Type 3
What type of enamel etching?
“pitted”
TYpe 4
What type of enamel etching?
“prismless” (flat and smooth)
Type 5
RINSE with water for ___ seconds _____ etching
◦To remove acid and leave enamel surface clean for bonding
◦25mL minimum water is necessary
10 ; after
Etching _____ wettability and surface area of the enamel
Increases
Etching raises the surface free energy to EXCEED the _______ of bonding material◦= produces spaces where resin can penetrate to for resin tags
surface tension
In what portion of the tooth is there less adhesion due to shorter and fewer enamel tags?
Cervical 1/3
Reduce microleakage at cervical and ascending walls in Class II preparations
NECESSARY!
Increases surface energy
Bevels
The micromechanical bond that is formed in enamel interlocks with etched ______
Enamel rods
