20
Q

A metal pin used in stone casts to remove die sections and to replace them accurately in the original position:

A

Die pin

21
Q

Definitive cast die requirements:

A
  1. bubble free

  3. must reproduce both prepared & unprepared tooth surfaces
  4. all occluding surfaces must allow for precise articulation of the opposing casts
  5. all relevant soft tissues should be reproduced
22
Q

Die requirements:

A
  1. reproduces the prepared tooth exactly
  2. all surfaces must be accurately duplicated
  3. no bubbles
  4. no voids
  5. finish line should be especially accurate
  6. unprepared tooth structure 0.5mm apical to finish line should be visible
