Q

New material should have hardened when light passed, but didn’t… you would say material did not what?

A

Cure

23
Q

Which type of composite has the lowest viscosity

A

Flowable

24
Q

Filler size and polishability, easier to polish what?

A

Microfilled

25
Q

What releases Fluoride?

A

Glass ionomer

26
Q

What function does kaolin perform in porcelain

A

Causes parameters to be cohesive when wet and it adds pigment

27
Q

Bases help to do what with thermal conductivity?

A

Limit/eliminate

28
Q

What do varnishes do?

A

Seal dentin tubules

29
Q

What is the best base to use in a deep cavity prep

A

calcium hydroxide

30
Q

Don’t use ZOE under a material that you want to what? (i.e. composite)

A

polymerize

31
Q

Copalite is to what?

A

Seal dentinal tubules

32
Q

What is created with high speed, debris of enamel and dentin

A

Smear layer

33
Q

Pt with history of sensitive teeth, requires amalgam restoration of max molar which base material may be the best choice

A

glass ionomer

34
Q

Base metal alloys are utilized to make what?

A

Crowns, bridges, PFM

35
Q

Can glass ionomers be utilized as cements and restorations and bases?

A

Yes

36
Q

Which are characteristics of glass ionomers?

A

release fluoride, bond to composite, enamel and dentin

37
Q

Which element is most responsible for reacting with mercury causing amalgam to set up?

A

Silver

38
Q

Pt. comes in with amalgam of equivalent age in 2 first molars, amalgam in #19 shows more marginal breakdown than the one in #30?

A

Both of these answers are correct

  • amalgam in 19 is less corrosion resistant than 30
  • amalgam in tooth 19 has higher creep than 30
39
Q

Advantage of amalgam…

A

Easy to insert, manipulate, resists fracture

40
Q

Corrosion effects the Cavo surface margin

A

True..(where amalgam and tooth meets)

41
Q

What percent of gold is in 18 k gold?

A

75%

42
Q

Compared to pure gold, dental gold alloys are:

A

Harder

43
Q

Which type of porcelain is used in a porcelain fused to metal crown?

A

Low fusing (if it were high fusing it would melt the metal that has already been built on the prep. Tooth)

44
Q

As a metal restoration ages micro-leakage does what?

A

Decreases because of the process corrosion (self seals)

45
Q

Pt presents with well defined very red scalloped area along gingival margin, adjacent to base metal crown which of the following is not a cause…
​-sub gingival crown margin
​-nickel allergy
​-galvanic reaction

A

Galvanic reaction

46
Q

What restorations can be placed to provide healing time

A

ZOE

47
Q

How can mercury enter body?

A

Inhaling, ingestion, across skin

48
Q

Which setting phase of amalgam adds strength

A

gamma 1

49
Q

Which phase is most detrimental

A

gamma 2​

50
Q

Similar to a filling, but indirect, contained within cusps, cemented

A

Inlay

51
Q

Indirect restoration on the occlusal surface, includes a cusp, cemented or bonded

A

Onlay

52
Q

Considered color name

A

Hue

53
Q

Lightness or darkness of a color (hue)

A

Value

54
Q

Vividness or strength of a color or hue (difference between 1 or 2 coast of paint)

A

Chroma

55
Q

The way the light is affected when entering a substance

A

Translucency

56
Q

Components of porcelain

A

Combo of Kaolin, feldspar, and quartz…porcelain is fired whereas ceramic is machine milled.
