Q

what is the base and catylist in polysulfide impression materials?

A

base- polysulfide

catalyst- lead oxide

21
Q

what is the base in polyether materials?

A

base-polyether polymer, filler/silica, plasticizer/phthalate or glycoesther.

22
Q

what is the catalyst in polyether materials?

A

alkyl aromatic sulfonate, filler and plasticizers, octyl phthalate, 5 % methyl cellulose - thinning agent

23
Q

polyether possitives

A

good tear strength, no water released in reaction, shorter setting time

24
Q

negatives for polyethers

A

absorb humidity( distortion), avoid sun,

25
Q

silicon

A

Si, semi-metal used for electronics

26
Q

Silica

A

SiO2 or silicone dioxide, examples are quartz & glass.

27
Q

silicone

A

polymoers that include Si, C, H, O

28
Q

type 1 condensation silicone materials

A

dimethyl siloxane+ tetra-ethyl orthosillcate= silicone rubber+ ethyl alcohol

29
Q

releasing of ethyl alcohol does what?

A

causes shrinkage, this can be avoided by using 2 step putty wash method

30
Q

type 2, PVS, addition silicone materials.

A

some siloxane+chloroplatinic acid ( a hydrid group)–> silicone rubber ( paladium is added to absorb hydrogens)

31
Q

whats special about type 2?

A

fastest working and setting times

32
Q

what material is used for mucostatic impressions?

A

alginate

33
Q

Historical teeth used in dentures were made of what?

A

human teeth, bovine, hippo teeth, ivory

34
Q

historical bases used in dentures were made of what?

A

hippopotamus ivory

35
Q

porcelain denture teeth

A

mechanically attached ( anterior teeth have pins, posterior have diatoric spaces)

36
Q

traits of porcelain teeth

A

esthetically better than acrylic, more resistant to wear, harder to grind, make clicking noise.

37
Q

Acrylic resin teeth

A

chemically bond to base,fluorescent, various shades, multiple layers, anatomically correct.

38
Q

before 1853 what was used for denture bases?

A

wood, bone, ivory, ceramics

39
Q

after 1853 what was used for denture bases?

A

vulcanized rubber, celluloid which is a nitrocellulose material

40
Q

characteristics of vulcanized rubber

A

formed the base and was unnatural looking, dark reddish brown color

41
Q

characteristics of celluloid

A

formed the gingival area. it was flexible but would absorb stains and develop odors and was flammable.

42
Q

what is PMMA?

A

polymethylmethacrylate resin. This is a acrylate polymer. There is a liquid and powder component that polymerize when mixed.

43
Q

powder portion

A

is the pre polymerized polymer

44
Q

liquid portion

A

non- polymerized monomer

45
Q

what is the polymer to monomer ratio of acrylic polymerization

A

3 polymer to 1 monomer

46
Q

what happens during acrylic polymerization?

A

carbon carbon bonds are created which decreases space and causses shrinkage

47
Q

what is relining a denture?

A

replacing the tissue surface side

48
Q

what is rebasing a denture?

A

replacing everything except the teeth.
