Q

What is the difference between creep fatigue and deformation

A

Deformation is caused by stress alike fatigue however it results im permanent change to dimensions instead of fracture
Creep also results in dimensional change but gradually due to repetitive small forces

Q

What is DE-BOND

A

applied forces sufficient to break material-tooth bond

16
Q

What is impact

A

Large sudden force which causes fracture

17
Q

What causes most fractures

A

Fatigue- repeated loads are applied causing small flaws/cracks resulting in the risk of fracture under a small force

18
Q

When is debonding used in dentistry

A

To remove orthodontic appliance, shear force is applied to separate bracket/bonding material from tooth surface
