Linings and bases Flashcards
what do linings and bases protect the pulp from?
an overlying restorative material
phosphoric acid based cements are composed of a powder containing what?
zinc oxide and other metallic oxides
phosphoric acid based cements are composed of a liquid containing what?
aqueous phosphoric acid
is the setting reaction of phosphoric acid based cements endo or exothermic?
exothermic
how do you delay the set and increase the working time of phosphoric acid cement?
introduce the powder incrementally into the liquid
why is phosphoric acid based cements highly irritating to the pulp?
low pH
low molecular weight so can penetrate deep into tubules
positives of using phosphoric acid based cements 3
thermal and electrical insulator
strength to withstand condensation
radiopaque
