Lecture 8 Flashcards
Adhesive joint:
A layer of intermediate material (adhesive) with 2 surfaces (adherends) producing 2 adhesive interfaces
Tooth structure is generally hydro–
hydrophilic
composite is generally hydro–
hydrophobic
2 adhesive interfaces:
adhesive and composite, adhesive and tooth structure
Year acid etch was put into use, and by whom?
1955, Michael Buonocore
Ray Bowen discovered what, in what year?
Bis-GMA 1962
To understand the principles of adhesions we must talk about these parameters:
Substrate, adhesive system, mech of adhesion, clinical techniques
Enamel is hydro (philic/phobic) compared to composite
hydrophilic, bc of the water content
Enamel is hydro (philic/phobic) compared to dentin:
hydrophobic
Enamel is __% mineral by weight, __ % organic, and ___ % water.
95, 4, 1
What kind of shapes form enamel?
prisms
How many hyrdoxyapetite crystal form a prism of approx. 5-7 microns?
10,000
Comp of dentin:
70% inorganic, 20% organic (collagen), 10% water
What type of substrate is dentin?
dynamic substrate, subject to constant physiologic and pathologic changes in composition and microstructure
How does the dentin change with age?
the relative conc of organic vs. inorganic content, happens with repetitive trauma as well
Characteristics of dentin as a substrate:
permeable, wet, heterogenous, tubular, mineralized, collagen reinforced with inter and intra-fibrillar apatite
Dentinal tubules contain:
odontoblasts (1/3 into tubules), fluids, nerve fibers, other molecules in the intracellular matrix
2 types of dentin:
peritubular and intertubular
Peritubular dentin:
more mineralized than intertubular, lining of tubule, little organic matrix
intertubular:
rich in collagen fibers, ideal for hybridization, bulk of dentin
Adhesion to tooth structure is primarily:
micromechanical
T or F? Current adhesive system only employ bonding to hydrophilic substrates.
F. both hydrophilic and phobic
Adhesives used to be classified according to:
time of appearance into market: generation 1-7
Current classification of adhesives:
steps and adhesive strategy (1,2, or 3 steps)/ (etch-and-rinse, self-etch)
2 types of adhesive strategies:
etch-and-rinse AND self-etch
3 steps of dentin/enamel bonding:
etch, primer, adhesive
etch step is aka:
conditioner (typically acid)
Fxn of etch step:
cleans/preps surface, removes smear layer and mineral
What is primer?
amphipathic monomers + solvent carrier (has both hydrophilic and phobic carriers), connects philic and phobic
Fxn of primer:
infiltrates exposed collagen network, displaces moisture and links to hydrophobic adhesives
Adhesives are:
hydrophobic resin monomers
Fxn of adhesive:
link to resin composite
Most resin systems are based on:
high molecular weight hydrophobic monomers (UDMA, Bis-GMA)
The only true chemical bonding occurs with:
glass ionomers
What is the base for self-etching adhesives?
phosphate based acidic primers
How many steps are etch-and-rinse systems applied in?
either 3 or 2 (2: conditioner, then primer + adhesive, i.e. optibond solo plus)
How many steps are self-etching systems applied in?
either 2 or 1 (2: etch + primer no rinse, then adhesive), (1: all 3 in one bottle, shelf life and sensitivity make it undesirable)
How many steps are glass ionomer systems applied in?
2
What is the smear layer?
mineralization
What are you left with when you remove the smear layer?
demineralized dentin
What are you bringing into the interface when you add the primer and adhesive?
monomers
What does the final hybrid layer consist of?
Collagen + adhesive monomers
Fxn of etching:
to achieve adhesion to the restorative resin (i.e. acids, lasers, air abrasion), remove smear layer and open dentinal tubules, increase surface area of the enamel and create micro-porosities
With what systems is etching required?
All
ideal etch enamel:
phosphoric aced
How long to leave etchant on tooth:
15-20 sec depending on the acid pH and the substrate
Who was the first to talk about etchant?
Buonocore
T or F? Phosphoric acid is an organic acid.
F. inorganic
2 types of inorganic acid etches:
nitric acid, phosphoric acid
2 types of organic acid etches:
citric acid, malice acid (10% for either)
Acid-etch technique is aka:
hypertonic acids
How do different acids differ in terms of how they etch?
Leave different pattern in the tooth structure (circular holes for 37% phosphoric acid)
