L7 - definitive Flashcards
indirect restorations / fixed options
single units
multi units
implant supported crowns / bridges / splints
indirect restorations
partial dentures
full dentures
over dentures
implant supported or retained prosthetics
major options for material for crowns
gold / metal (semi-precious and non-precious)
porcelain / resin and hybrid ceramics
combinations of porcelain and metal
resin and metal
onlays vs amalgam and composites
amalgam and composite wear and stain and breakdown and must be replaced – finite life span and inlays use material with a LONGER life span
ceramic vs metal inlays
ceramic and resin inlays are BONDED = REINFORCE the tooth structure
metal inlays are cementd but mat be looked at as a WEDGE placed in the tooth – because of the divergent preps so create force
use of onlays
used to restore larger lesions with a material that has a long life span and to shoe or SUPPORT / PROTECT CUSPS
- amalgam onlays
- composite onlays (wear and stain and breakdown and have to be replaced - FINITE life span)
describe metal onlays - pros and cons
are cemented and are an excellent long term restorative option
pros
- RETAIN much of the natural tooth anatomy – can be used anywhere
- good for patient with parafunctional habits
cons
- not good against porcelain
- looked at as a aesthetic concers
good onnlay choice for parafunctional habit problems
metal
composite is what type
direct
what influences success of composite
size
location
isolation
occlusla forces
caries risk / hygeine (like amalgam could be less leakage?)
parafunctional habits
operator skills
pros of composite
tooth colored - bonded - seals and useful in small occlusal and interproximal lesions
cons of composite
micro -leakage, sensitivity, technique sensative
amalgam is good for and pros
restore defective in posterior teeth on the five surfaces of the tooth
missing cusps especially non functinal , core material
durable material long service life and works well in area where it is hard to visualize
inlay used for what size usually
like smaller lesiosn 1/3 width of tooth
ceramic and resin onlays are ___ to tooth? vs metal
BONDED
metal = cemented
pros and cons of cerami and resin onlays
pros
- reinforce the tooth structure
- aethstic
cons
- ceramics are subject to fracture if adequate THICKNESS is not maintained
- high skill level, technique sensative
- not for all situations and teeth - selective usage = success
esthetic of PFM depend on
reduction
- potential visiable metal margins
pros for use of PFM corwns
aesthetics compared to all metal
less aggressive prep than ceramic
multiple FINISH LINE OPTIONS
more places and conditions favor the use of PFM
bevels usually added when
situations where a shoulder is already present – and destruction by caries previous restoratins
facial of metal ceramic
metal restorations
shoulder use
all ceramic and margin of PFM crowns
radial shoulder
rounded shoulder – round ended tapered diamond ceramics need this
indications for chamfer
cast metal crowns and metal only portion of PFM crowns
heavy chamfer
ALL CERAMIC
cavo surface of chamfer
90 degrees but with havy – need a round end taperes
indication for knife edge margin
mandibular posterior teeth with very CONVEX axial surfaces
lingually tilted lower molars
knife edge permit
acute margin of metal
thin margin
suscetible to distortion
decision of PFM vs ceramic usually comes down to
finish line, location, and occlusion
prepare tooth and less than ___ there is a problem
less than 3 mm
