Day 2 Lecture 1 Flashcards

1
Q

Caries

A

A multifacorial infectious disease that attacks teeth by certain bacteria if the conditions are permissible causing destruction (demineralization/ dissolution) of the tooth - bacteria are part of microflora. When other factors line up, you get caries. Mutens and… other primary bacteria (60+). Substrate is carbohydrates - used as food, pH of mouth also has a role.

Q

Demineralization

A

Dissolving of the tooth. Collagen fibers (small amount - tooth is mostly calcium phosphate*) small amount of organic matter is broken down, Calcium phosphate demineralizes.

Q

Remineralization

A

Opposite of demineralization. If remineralization exceeds demineralization, you’re good and no operation is needed. Enough flourides in saliva to where flourohydroxyapatite can form.

Q

Class IV

A

Proximal surfaces of incisors and canines, but also will involve the incisal edge. Chips,

23
Q

Class V

A

Gingival third (area near the gingiva) of the facial or lingual surfaces of any tooth. **Gingival = cervical in operative.

24
Q

Class VI

A

Involves the incisal edges of anterior teeth and the cusp tips of posterior teeth. These are rare.

25
Q

Amalgam

A

Intricate, requires a specific size/shape of cavity preps.

26
Q

Tooth prep steps

A
  1. removal of caries, 2. removal of weak tooth structure to provide well supported hard tissue, 3. protect the pulp.
27
Q

Caries prep goal

A

Not showing any further progression.

• Smooth and polished like surface

28
Q

Healthy state is reestablishing the following

A

Tooth is not diseased anymore, normal function, aesthetically pleasing for anteriors

29
Q

Walls

A

External wall and internal wall. External extend to outer uncut tooth surface. Internal walls do not. Angle based on long axis. Axial and perpendicular walls.

30
Q

Cavosurface margin

A

External margin that touches an uncut tooth surface. Junction between external wall of prep and uncut tooth surface.

31
Q

Dovetail

A

Class 1 - isthmus connects two dovetails. Dovetail design includes each marginal fossa and the developmental grooves around the marginal pits. See images.

32
Q

Isthmus

A

Narrowest portion of cavity prep in class I, portion of the cavity connecting an occlusal and proximal portion in class II.

33
Q

Axial walls

A

Parallel to long axis of tooth. Internal wall

34
Q

Pulpal walls

A

Perpendicular to long axis. Internal wall. Also called perpendicular.

35
Q

Wall names

A

Termed based on adjacent surfaces.

36
Q

Line angles

A

Whether external or internal, use other rules. It is consistent.

37
Q

Principles of amalgam cavity prep

A
  1. outline, 2. resistance, 3. retention, 4. convenience, 5. finsihsing, 6. debridement
38
Q

Outline form - step 1

A

conservation of tooth structure Final shape of tooth, shape of cavity prep, perimeter of the tooth prep in width, length and depth. Factors - conservation of tooth structure, location and extent of the carious lesion, position of pit and fissures. Extent of lesions - entire carious area should be removed, any weak enamel removed.

39
Q

Old outline form vs new

A

Old - extensive tooth preps, unnecessary loss of structure. New - conservative approach to try to lessen amount of lost tooth structure. Composite is more conservative

40
Q

Maxillary tooth anat

A

Oblique ridge. Separating ridge - less than 0.5mm of enamel will require joining cavities. Oblique ridge should not be touched otherwise, as it is important.

41
Q

Resistance form - step 2

A

Design features of cavity prep - allow remaining tooth structure and restoration to withstand forces to long axis of tooth. 5 factors to resistance

42
Q
  1. Removal of undermined surface enamel
A

Cavosurface margin should not terminiate on unsupported or undermined enamel to prevent its fracture. Undermined = unsupported = weakened

43
Q
  1. Flat pulpal floor
A

Cup shaped cavity - rotation of the restoration (micromovement) results in a wedging effect on the supporting dentin bridge. Box shaped - pulpal floor perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth. **Cup can move due to wedging action, will eventually break or crack tooth structure.

44
Q

Cavity prep depth

A

Amalgam - metal alloy - must have depth to have enough thickness to prevent fracture under load. Must be 1.5 mm at the least.

45
Q

Well defined rounded internal line and point angles

A

• Placing line angles to delineate the walls • Sharp line angles are not recommended in any restoration • Sharp line angles act as stress concentration areas

46
Q

Type of restorative material

A

Amalgam has low edge strength. Margin is of prime importance, in order to reinforce amalgam, need 90 degree angle from enamel to dentin.

47
Q

Cavosurface angle

A

Angle formed by cavity walls and external tooth.

48
Q

Butt-joint margin

A

90 degree amalgam margin. Exposed edge will break otherwise, 90 degree cavosurface angle.

49
Q

Retention form

A

Design features of the cavity prep prevent dislodgement of the restoration by lifting or tipping forces. Amalgam does not bond to tooth structure, thus increasing the surface area of the walls that contacts the amalgam (increased friction).

50
Q

Convenience form

A

Sufficient access to the cavity, to facilitate visibility and instrumentation of the cavity preparation and the insertion of the restorative material. Visibility - for complete removal of decay, access to prep for instruments, insertionof restoration material (1 mm is the smallest diameter of condenser). Narrowest portion of cavity must be at least 1 mm.

51
Q

Finishing

A

Finishing the cavosurface margin (enamel margin) to prevent jagged or rough outline
•To achieve the best marginal seal

52
Q

Debridement

A

Final step before restoration. Rinsing the cavity is done with air/water spray syringe and high suction evacuation. To wash away dental shavings and debris, dry out cavity.

53
Q

Smear layer

A

Layer of dentinal shavings.
