Q

How is fluoride released?**

A
  • It is a by product of the setting reaction.
  • Occurs over a period of time. Peaks at 24 hrs and stabilises at 3-4 months
  • Buffering: F released in acidic conditions
  • Reservoir effect: F taken up by GIC and can be recharged with F

Q

How does GIC adhere to tooth surface?

A
  1. Micro-mechanical interlocking

Removal of smear layer with conditioner before placement of GIC restoration with 10-25% polyacrylic acid.

Direct bonding with tooth and cement, as acid displaces P042- and Ca2+ ions on enamel and dentine surface, the in surface energy increases

  1. True chemical bonding = interfacial zone of ion exchange between carboxyl groups of cement and ca2 of tooth.

Q

You have stabilised the health of your patients gums, but they aren’t happy with the look of tooth 21. What material can you use to restore 21?

A

RMGIC- because chemical retention is not needed.

24
Q

What is the atraumatic restorative technique?

A
  • Hand instruments to remove caries
  • GIC used
  • Unreliable electrical power supplies- where there are no drills!
  • Suitable for middle/low income countries
25
Q

What is the open sandwich vs closed sandwich?

A
  • Open: GIC exposed to oral environment, used with no enamel is at gingival margin
  • Closed: CR completely encases GIC, used when enamel is at gingival margin
26
Q

What is the open/closed sandwich technique?

A
  • When you layer restorative materials in a cavity prep
  • Combines desirable properties of various materials
  • GIC placed as a liner/base, CR on top
27
Q

What are the issues of concern with RMGI?

A
  • Light curing: varies with depth, lower layers receive less light. Placed in layers less than 2mm
  • Cytotoxic to pulp: unreacted HEMA
28
Q

What are the improved properties of RMGIC?

A
  1. Greater working time
  2. Set on demand
  3. Fewer problems with water
  4. Immediate finishing
  5. Better aesthetics
  6. Higher tensile strength and fracture toughness
  7. Resistance to microleakage
  8. Bond to CR
29
Q

What is the setting reaction of RMGI?

A
  1. Neutralisation - acid base reaction
  2. Addition polymerisation- free radical polymerisation of methyl acrylate, light activated and chemically activated polymerisation
30
Q

How and why do you expand the clinical use of GIC?

A
  • Resin added to GIC
  • Because normal GIC has poor aesthetics, slow setting reaction and sensitivity to water in initial setting
31
Q

Your patient has short-duration pain on the carious mandibular first molar.

Pulp testing was conducted, and the tooth was determined to be vital. You take a radiograph.

Your diagnosis is reversible pulpits. You want to perform caries control and re-evaluate the tooth in four to six week.

What can you do in the mean time?

A

Remove caries

Cavity condition- wash out and dry

Bulk fill material- carve it back

Light cure/time cure

32
Q

33
Q

How does GIC differ from other restoratives?

A
  1. Adheres to enamel and dentine
  2. Anticariogenic fluoride activity
  3. Moisture tolerant
34
Q

What is the difference between a liner and a base?

And what type of GIC are these placed under?

A
  • Liner: placed under the restoration near pulp, a chemical barrier and reduces micro leakage.
  • Base: thicker and reduces chemical irritation, and thermal protection. Place where injured pulp.
