18
Q

what is amalgam composed of and its indications and contraindications

A

indications:
- used for stress bearing areas
- small to moderate sized caries
- poor personal hygiene
- moisture control is problematic

contraindications:
- aesthetics are important
- history of allergy
- for large restorations

composition:
- mercury
- alloy powders ( silver, tin, copper zinc)
- 1:1 ratio

19
Q

what is composite composed of and its indications and contraindications

A

indications:
- restoration for class I-V restorations
- restoration of surface defects
- closure of diastema
- aesthetic recontouring

contraindications:

20
Q

what is glass ionomer composed of and its indications and contraindications

A

indications
- primary teeth
- final restoration in non-stress areas
- sealants
- core mateirals for buildup
- provisional restorations

composition:
- resin modified
metal reinforcements

21
Q

what are indications for temporary restorative materials

A
  • reduces sensitivity
  • maintains function and aesthetics before permanent restoration
  • protects margins of prepared tooth
  • prevent shifting
  • if tooth has lost filling, IRM would be used
  • for crown preps, provisional materials would be used
22
Q

what are the temporary restorative materials

A

IRM
- restoration of primary teeth
- caries mangement

provisional restorative materials
- temp crowns are designed to cover major portions of tooth

23
Q

what are indirect restorative materials and types

A

restoration that is fabricated outside the mouth

gold-noble metal alloys
- noble metals are gold, palladium, platinum

ceramic castings
- combination of metallic and non-metallic
- porcelain-fused to metal, porcelain bonded to metal

porcelain
- type of ceramic used in dentistry

24
Q

what is polymerization

A

process where the resin material is changed from pliable state into hardened restoration
- can be light-cured or auto-cured

25
Q

what is tooth whitening and its adverse effects

A

can be done in clinic or ate home
- can cause sensitivity (gum recessions, minute cracks in teeth), and tissue irritation
