Q

describe how to bond to enamel

A

37% phophoric acid - etch/conditioner
acid roughens surface of the dry enamel, allowing micrmechanical interlocking of resin filled materials

etching inc the suface energy of the enamel suface- imrpove wettability - allows resin to adapt better

A

high elastic limit
inc UTS and hardness
dec ductility

62
Q

dislocations

metal

A

weak points which lead to an alteration of lattice structure and shape
resistable, occur due to slip
accumulate at grain boundaries

63
Q

impeded dislocation movement
causes

A

inc elastic limit
inc UTS
hardness

dec ductility and impact resistance

64
Q

cold working

metal

A

work hardening/strain hardening

work been on metal/alloy at low temp - below recyrstallisation temp
causes slip - leading to stronger harder metal
e.g. bending, rolling, swaging

65
Q

cold working effect on mech properties of metal

A

inc elastic limit, UTS, hardness
dec ductility, impact strength and corroision resistance

strengthening metal by plastic deformation, dislocations interact and create obstructions in cystal lattice, resistance to dislocation formation develops

66
Q

annealing

metal

A

heating of metal/alloy so that greater thermal vibration allow migration of atoms and atoms rearrange

67
Q

stress relief annealing

metal

A

eliminates internal stresses caused by cold work by allowing atms to rearrange within grains

68
Q

recrystallisation

A

occurs when metal/alloy is heated
leads to smaller equi-axed grains reducing EL, UTS, hardness and inc ductility

spoils benefits of cold working but allows for further cold working

69
Q

70
Q

solid solution

interstitial - atoms are markedly different in size and smaller are located in sapces of larger atoms

71
Q

types of alloy cooling

2

A

slowly - metal atoms diffuse through lattice, ensuring grain composition is homogenous but large grains

rapidly - prevents atoms diffusion through lattice, causes coring as composition varies throughouot grain (undesirable) - smaller grains impeded dislocation

72
Q

homogenising annealing

alloys

A

reverse coring

reheats alloy to allow atoms to diffuse and cause grain composition to become homogenous

Copper-enriched - increased strength and hardness >6%

particle types types
* Lathe-cut
* Spherical (less mercury, higher tensile and early compressive strengths, less sensitive to condensation, easier to carve)

83
Q

setting reaction for amalgam

A

Ag3Sn + Hg -> Ag3Sn + Ag2Hg3 + Sn7Hg9

Copper enriched:AgSnCu + Hg -> AgSnCu + gamma-1 + Cu6Sn5

Weak strength, poor corrosion resistance.

Copper-enriched removes gamma-2 phase, making it stronger and causing less creep
Silver copper is mixed with gamma-2 to make it stronger and less corrosive.

Other methods to reduce corrosion includes polishing margins and avoiding galvanic cells

84
Q

indications and contraindications for amalgam

Anterior teeth, aesthetics paramount, mercury sensitivity, inability to produce retentive cavity, pregnant, child

85
Q

advantages and disadvantages for amalgam

hardness, cheap

Poor aesthetics, no bond to tooth, high thermal diffusivity, destructive prep, marginal breakdown, tooth discolouration, ditching (LT corrosion at margin), lichenoid reactions, amalgam tattoo

86
Q

why are amalgams now zinc free

A

Zinc is a scavenger during production - preferentially oxidises and slag formed/removed.

Materials are now zinc-free due to the reaction of zinc with saliva/blood: Zn + H2O -> ZnO + H2
* Bubbles of hydrogen gas is formed within amalgam.
* Pressure build-up causes expansion. Downward pressure causes pulpal pain. Upward pressure causes the restoration to sit proud of the surface/protrude

92
Q

setting reaction for GIC

Dissolution. Acid added to solution; hydrogen ions interact and attack the glass surface, causing glass ions to be released/leached out. This leaves silica gel around unreacted glass

Gelation. Initial set. Calcium ions crosslink with the polyacid by chelation with the carboxyl groups, forming calcium polyacrylate. Calcium ions are bivalent, so can react with two molecules

Hardening. Trivalent aluminium ions ensure good crosslinking with an increase in strength - takes up to 7 days

93
