E3: LUTING AGENTS! Flashcards
Solid + Solid = _____ Adhesion, Liquid + Solid = ______ Adhesion
POOR….Good
What are the 3 mechanisms of adhesion?
Mechanical, Physical, and Chemical
Whats the simplest type of adhesion?
Mechanical
Mechanical adhesion is _______ of surface irregularities.
interlocking
Physical adhesion occurs when two surfaces are in _____ proximity.
close
Physical adhesion is from dipole-dipole forces and is rapid, reversible, and not suitable for ________ bond
permanent
Chemical adhesion: Molecules dissociate after adsorption onto the surface and constituent components then bond themselves separately by _____ or _____ forces
covalent or ionic
Chemical Adhesion: _________ between the two atoms in the chemical bond distinguishes it from PHYSICAL adhesion
sharing of electrons
An intermediary substance that is able to bond to BOTH materials involved:
Coupling Agent
Whats and example of a coupling agent?
Silane
________: Modifies the characteristics of the surface of one of the two materials involved so a bond can be created
Primer
Whats an example of a PRIMER?
Rely-X Ceramic Primer
A material that fills the gap between the tooth and the indirect restoration and holds them together:
Luting agent
The period of time, measured from the START of MIXING, during which it is possible to manipulate a dental material without an adverse effect on its properties.
Working Time
That part of the WORKING time specified or required in order to obtain a satisfactory MIX of the components of the dental material.
Mixing Time
The period of time, measured from the START of MIXING until the cement has SET, according to criteria and conditions prescribed for each particular material.
Setting Time
________: Used for the period of time between the preparation and seating the definitive
restoration – to seal, preventing marginal leakage → preventing pulpal irritation
Provisional Cements
