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)
