121
Q

A
  • Mandible moves forward
  • Anterior teeth guide the movement
122

A

The occlusal surface is shaped with a round or oval carbide finishing bor or similarly shaped finishing diamond
Or use the disc things

126
Q

What intstruments do you use to finish a composite restoration BEFORE light curing?

A

Plastic instrument - to place and smooth composite on occlusal surface
hollenback carver - to carve anatomy, primarily used for amalgam
Optrasculpt - to develop anatomy in composite resin prior to light curing

127
Q

A

Mild flurosis
White and brown spot lesions
- Following ortho treatment
Class II

128
Q

When are indirect pulp caps used?

A

when a deep carious lesion occurs and there is no clinical or radiographic evidence or irreversible pulp damage (such as a history of spontaneous pain, heat sensitivity relieved by cold, or PA lesion)

129
Q

What should a tooth look like for an indirect pulp cap?

A
  • Be completely asymptomatic
  • Show signs of reversible pulpitis
    ex/ moderate cold sensitivity, with pain subsiding within about 15 seconds
    Remember, caries is usually deeper than it appears to be on the radiograph
130
Q

What is the objective of an indirect pulp cap?

A

AVOID A DIRECT PULP EXPOSURE

131
Q

Describe the two appt approach of a pulp cap?

A

First appointment
- All caries are removed from all areas EXCEPT the deepest, nearest pulp
- Leave the last bit of infected dentin to avoid exposing pulp
- Cover remaining infected dentin with calcium hydroxide (Dycal or Life) then glass ionomer (Vitrbond)
- Place a temporary restoration - IRM
- It may be acceptable to leave some undermined enamel temporarily to help hold in the temporary restoration

Second appointment
- Allow 6-12 weeks to allow the body to form reparative dentin in the site of the near exposure
Desired result = dentin bridge formation
- At the end of the 12 weeks
Confirm that the patient is asymptomatic and that the tooth is vital
- Traditional approach
Remove the temporary restoration, the glass ionomer and the CaOH
CAREFULLY remove the remaining infected dentin (soft, leathery caries)
Leave the affected dentin (dry, powdery caries)
A #4 round bur on slow speed with a light shaving touch is the best choice for this function, better than a spoon excavator since the larger bur will put less force per unit area than the hand instrument would therefore making it less likely that one would break through the pulp
Place new liner of Dycal covered by vitebond. Remove all undermined enamel, modify the prep to properly retain the restoration, and restore with your selected permanent material

132
Q

Describe the single appt approach of a pulp cap

A
  • Remove infected (soft, leathery) dentin
  • Remove affected dentin (dry, powdery caries) from any areas where a pulp exposure is not likely to occur
  • DEJ must be completely caries free!
  • Leave the affected dentin ONLY in the deepest area where the possibility of a direct pulp exposure is a concern. You want to remove ALL affected dentin if at all possible
  • To avoid pulp exposure, it may be permissible to leave a small amount of affected dentin in deep areas
    Place CaOH (dycal or Life) over the deepest area close to the pulp
    Place glass ionomer (vitebond) over the CaOH
    There is fluoride release from the vitrebond allowing possibility of remineralization of the affected dentin as long as restoration is well-sealed
  • Remove all undermined enamel and place the permanent restoration
    If time does not permit placing the permanent restoration (if, for instance, you are trying to do temporary, caries control restorations in several teeth at the same appointment, place a temporary restoration
    Schedule next appointment to complete definitive restoration - do not remove vitebond or dycal
    If crown is indicated, RCT is recommended prior to placement of the crown

Q

When are direct pulp caps used?

A

Used when a small pulpal exposure occurs during cavity preparation

134
Q

What material is used in a direct pulp cap?

A

A thin layer of calcium hydroxide is placed over the exposed pulp
A layer of glass ionomer is placed over the CaOH
Stimulate the pulp to form secondary odontoblasts, which can produce a dentin bridge across the exposure site

135
Q

When are direct pulp caps most successful?

A

when the exposure is mechanical rather than carious
- When pt is young, in exposure sites less than 0.5 mm
- If bleeding at the site is easily controlled and there is no pus or serious exudate
- If area has not been contaminated by saliva
- If there has been little or no mechanical damage to the pulp tissue

136
Q

When is it not appropriate to place a pulp cap?

A
  • spontaneous pain!!!!!!
  • Pulp exposure - indirect pulp cap is no longer an option - direct pulp cap may be an option
  • If the tooth will require a crown, DO NOT RELY DIRECTLY ON PULP CAP
137
Q

What is reversible pulpitis?

A

Pulpal sensitivity due to caries or following cavity preparation and restoraiton

138
Q

What are symptoms of reversible pulpitis?

A

Twinge of pain due to sugar, cold, or acid from caries first contacting dentin
Pain lasts a few seconds

139
Q

How to test for reversible pulpitis?

A

As long as an irritant, such as touching an ice stick to the tooth causes pain that lingers no more than 10-15 seconds after removal, its called reversible pulpitis and can be treated with a restoration

140
Q

What is irreversible pulpitis?

A

When pain is spontaneous, or elicited by an irritant linger more than 15 seconds, infection of the pulp often has occurred and resolution by operative dentistry treatment is usually no possible; root canal therapy is advised

141
Q

What is pulpal necrosis?

A

When this irreversible pulpitis is untreated

142
Q

What are symptoms of pulpal necrosis?

A
  • spontaneous, continuous, throbbing pain elicited by heat than can be relieved by cold and then later no response to any stimulus
  • as inflammation and infection move beyond the root apex, the tooth may become sensitive to percussion
143
Q

What is therapy for pulpal necrosis?

A

Root canal therapy
