E2 Flashcards
Provisionals should incorporate the highest standards of (5):
Phsyiologic form Occlusion Axial embrasures Pontic Form Marginal Integrity
The most predictable way to establish an adequate and healthy embrasures zone is….
With provisional restoration moving to the final restoration by changing materials only
Provisional material should have ease of _____ and ___
Fabrication
Alteration
Provisional material ____ and ___ to wear abrasion
Strength
Resistance
Provisional material needs to be inert to _____
Eugenol
Provisional material should be a poor
Thermal conductor
Provisional material color should be
Stable and estehitcally acceptable
Provisional material to pulpal tissue and perio should be
Non-irritating
Provisionals establish
Occlusion and occlusal plane
Provisional determine
Path of insertion
Provisionals can aid in determining condition of a_________
Cracked tooth
Provisionals can maintain
Tissue after crown lengthening
PMM
Jet Acrylic
Duralaluy
PMM advantages
Best abrasion resistance
Best color stability
Good polishability
Good marginal finish
PMM Disadvantages
High heat polymerization
High shrinkage
Monomer irritant to pulp
Eugenol deteriorates resin
PMM indications
Indirect techniques
Long-term provisionals
Conventional provisionals
Long Span provisionals
PEM
Trim
Split line
Snap
PEM advantages
Low shrinkage Rubber stage to set Longer working time Lower polymerization time 125 degrees F
PEM Disadvantages
Poor hardness Poor abrasion resistance Poor color stability Poor finishability Eugenol deteriorates resin
PEM Indicators
Short term provisionals 1-3 weeks
Direct technique
Short span
Epimine Advantages
Lowest shrinkage
Negligible heat of polymerization
Lowest pulpal irritability
Eugenol does not affect resin
Epimine Disadvantages
High cost
Air bubbles
Poorest in color stability hardness abrasion resistance
Cannot be corrected by additions
Epimine Indications
Most biologically compatible when used in direct technique
Hybrid provisional advantages
Low shrinkage
Corrected by additions
Can be radiopaque
Hybrid Disadvantages
Brittle
Repairs and mixing are more difficult
Expensive
Hybrid indications
Long span restorations
Long term provisionals
ESF vacuum method uses
.020 polypropylene or polyvinyl matrix
Other uses of thin plastic matrices
Preparation guide
Develop full contour waxing
Aid in cutback design and metal frame design for MC restorations
Pontic classification
Mucosal contact
No mucosal contact
Mucosal Contact
Ridge lap
Modified ridge lap
Orate
Conical
No mucosal contact
Sanitary
Modified sanitary
Conical Pontiac’s may create
Food entrapment on broad residual ridges
Broad residual ridges math handle
Sanitary Pontic form better
A Pontic should have incisogingival height
That is the same as the original tooth
Pontic occlusal table
Equal to adjacent teeth
Pontic pressure should be
Minimum, free contact with ridge
Pontic should be
Rigid with no acute angles open embrasures
Pontic tissue surface
Convex
Smooth
Properly finished tissues surface
Pontic contact requirements
No tissue blanching
Pass thin floors
No visible space under contact with tissue on visually esthetic areas as possible
Sanitary used when
Severe ridge loss mandibular
Ovoid used when
Moderate ridge loss mandibular
Area of contact should resemble
The letter T when viewed from the gingival aspect on modified ridge
Metal connectors
2mmx2mm ideally
Heart shape connectors
Open to permit hygiene
Verification of embrasures form
Proxabrush
Floss threader
Super floss
Internal margin
1 mm wide band of metal closely adapted to the tooth
The 1 mm wide band of metal minimizes
Dissolution of the luting agent
Internal surface should have a uniform space of
25u to 35 u for the luting agent
- cement spreads evenly
- Reduced marginal gap width
Pro mail contacts tested
Shim stock-tightness
Floss-Size location
Metal crown occlusal surfaces are best finished with
A carried finishing bur and white or green small stones
Polishing metal first start with
A Moore’s fine white sand paper disc too remove imperfections
Contour
Gingival third
Color shade selection requires 3 things
An object
A Light
An observer
