Q

Constituents of RMGI

A

Powder (barium glass)
Liquid (HEMA, tartaric acid, polyacreyic acid, photo initiator)

23
Q

Setting reaction for RMGI

A

Dual curing - acid base
Tri curing - redox

24
Q

Name 3 examples of liners

A

CaOH

ZOE

RMZOE

25
Q

How does CaOH work to protect pulp

A

Bacteriocidal (alkaline)
Imitates odontoblast layer
–> necrosis
–> forms tertiary dentine to protect pulp

26
Q

When to not use ZOE

A

Do not use under composite
Inhibits resin set

27
Q

List some properties of acrylic (denture base)

A

Dimensionally accurate
High thermal conductivity
Non toxic
Non irritant
Poor mechanical strength

28
Q

2 types of PMMA

A

Self cure - URA
Decreased fracture resistance

Light cure - Denture
Increased fracture resistance

29
Q

List some ideal properties of a denture base (7)

A

Aesthetics
Cost effective
Non toxic/irritant
Low weight
Dimensionally stable
High thermal conductivity
Flexural strength

30
Q

Consistuents of PMMA (2)

A

Liquid - methacrylate, inhibitor

31
Q

Faults during production of PMMA (acrylic)

A

Contraction porosity

Gaseous porosity

Granular

Crazing

32
Q

How do we bond to enamel?

A

Enamel = hydrophobic + high surface energy

37% phosphoric to roughen enamel + allow micro mechanical interlocking of resin fillers

Improves wettability

Removes contaminants

33
Q

How do we bond to dentine?

A

Dentine = hydrophilic + low surface energy

Dentine conditioner
- Etches dentine
- Opens up dentinal tubules and removes smear layer

Primer
- HEMA/MDP, 4META = coupling agents
- Bifunctional with hydrophobic + hydrophilic ends

Adhesive
- Mix of bisGMA+HEMA forms hybrid layer

40
Q
