Lec 1/5 ACC restorations and ceramic materials I Flashcards
Indications for full coverage resto:
extensive coronal damage, max R/R form needed, short crown, axially tilted teeth, restore endo treated teeth, parafunctional habits
Adv of ACC:
esthetic, excellent translucency (sim to tooth), good tissue response (biocompatible), lack of reinforcement by a metal substructure permits more conservative reduction of facial surface
Disadv of ACC:
proper prep design is critical to get mechanical success
Contraindications, ACC:
more conservative restoration can be used, not possible to provide adequate support or an even shoulder width of at least 1mm circumferentially
Slope of ACC should be:
NONE! 90’ modified shoulder
Reductions for CI ACC:
1.5mm incisal, 1mm modified shoulder all around, 1.5mm axial reduction
Benefit of proper marginal design:
good stress distribution
What does occ reduction for ACC depend on?
type of ceramic, monolithic, layered, location of resto
General occ reduction for ACC:
1.5mm - 2mm
Type of margin for ACC:
butt joint
All ceramics have a glass and a crystalline phase except:
polycrystalline
What is the glass phase of ceramics?
Silica, mostly
Crystalline phase ceramics:
Leucite, LIDi, Alumina, Magnesia, Zirconia
2 polycrystalline ceramics:
Alumina, Zirconia
What are ceramic metals based on?
Amt of crystalline phase, fabrication technique
As this inc, flexural strength inc:
amt of crystalline
Type of Leucite that is between Feldspathic and LiDi in terms of flexural strength:
pressed
TF? Translucency inc, as flexural strength inc.
F.
TF? Translucency inc, as crystalline inc.
F.
Ceramics based on crystalline phase:
pred glass, particle-filled, polycrystalline
5 fabrication techniques for ceramics:
Conventional Powder/ Slurry Castable, Pressable, Slip-Casting, Machinable
Conventional Powder/ Slurry Ceramics are used mainly as:
Veneers, porcelain jacket crown
Material for PJC:
Feldspathic or w aluminous core
Disad v of PJC:
brittle, easily fractured, poor marginal adaptation,
