bisacryl is a combination of ___ and ___
bis-GMA and acrylic
acrylics typically come in what form?
a powder/liquid form (the liquid is the monomer, the powder is the polymer)
should you leave a restoration with a cavosurface margin that has stained, sclerotic dentin?
no because it is questionable
___ stimulus can increase salivation
painful
what can you add to die stone to improve its hardness?
low viscosity cyanoacrylate
how many types of dental stone are there?
5
which type of dental stone is used for study models?
type 3
which type of dental stone is used for dies?
types 4 and 5
what is the difference between type 4 and type 5 dental stone?
- type 4 is hard, but has less expansion than type 5
- type 5 is the hardest stone, but expands the most
which type of dental stone is used as mounting stone?
type 2
which dental stone has the lowest expansion of all types?
1
color is defined by what 3 variables?
value, hue, and chroma
which color variable is the most important factor in the treatment room?
chroma
it is important for all aspects of the treatment room (chairs, counters/cabinets, patient bibs, doc/assistant clothing, etc.) be no more than ___ pastels
4
a desiccated tooth increases which color variable?
value
with respect to color variables, the cervical area of an unrestored canine has the highest ___ of the dominant ___
- chroma
- hue
with respect to color variables, when shade matching, ___ and ___ should be viewed directly, while ___ should be viewed peripherally
- hue and chroma
- value
___ is determined by the wavelength of the reflected and/or transmitted light observed
hue (it’s the actual color…red, blue, yellow, etc.)
___ is the intensity of the hue, while ___ is the lightness or darkness of the hue
- chroma
- value
which cement is fairly soluble and only lasts a long time if the margins are completely sealed?
zinc phosphate
which cement has the lowest solubility?
resin cement
which cement has the least potential for moisture damage?
resin cement
which cement’s solubility is inbetween zinc phosphate and resin cements?
glass ionomer
*it is more soluble if it is misused
what type of cement is relyx luting plus?
resin modified glass ionomer cement
what are two important things to remember when using relyx luting plus?
- you want to keep the saliva away from it for 5 minutes while the cement is setting up
- use enough so that there is a bead of cement that sets up around the margin
what are 3 things that excursive contacts on posterior teeth can cause?
- broken cusps
- issues with the TMJ
- increases the activity of the elevator muscles
what are some symptoms of a cusp fracture?
- symptoms occur with biting pressure - the pain is increased on release of the pressure
- cold sensitivity
- pain is sharp and short
- *sometimes symptoms are inconsistent
do cusp fractures always need to be fixed immediately?
- no, as long as the filling is still intact
- most patients just want the fractured cusp smoothed
can you use a self adhesive resin cement to bone a ceramic onlay?
- no because it is does not create a strong enough bond for an onlay
- however, it is a good luting agent
what kind of build up material do we use at the SOD?
dual cure resin restorative material
T or F:
self etch adhesives are compatible with build up materials
false
etch and rinse adhesives are safe to use
what is the criteria for full arch impressions?
- most posterior tooth (2nd molar)
- 3 or more units (fixed bridge)
- involving canine
what are the purposes of a stress breaker?
- no teeter-totter
- perio involved teeth
- peir to pier to pier bridges
- crossing the midline in the lower arch (due to symphysis)

- taller
orthodontically uprighted 2nd molars can frequently involve ___
endo

modified ridge lap
T or F:
pontics should be convex in all directions
true

2mm
what is the recommended location for sanitary/hygienic pontics?
posterior mandible
