paste 1: glycol salicylate
paste 2: zinc oxide with calcium hydroxide

17
Q

what is the setting reaction for calcium hydroxide cements?

A

VLC activated polymerisation of methacrylate monomer
monomer mixed with hydroxyethylmethacrylate

18
Q

what increases the rate of set of calcium hydroxide cements?

A

moisture

19
Q

visible light cured materials are endo or exothermic?

A

exothermic

20
Q

positives of using calcium hydroxide cements

A

high pH so beneficial irritancy and bactericidal
thermal and electrical insulators
good restorative material compatibility

21
Q

negatives of using calcium hydroxide cements

A

insufficient strength to withstand amalgam condensation/packing
not adhesive so no coronal seal

22
Q

polycarboxylates consist of a powder and liquid containing what?

A

powder - zinc oxide (or freeze dried)
liquid - aqueous solution of polyacrylic acid

23
Q

polycarboxylates have a strong bond to ?, weak bond to ? and non existant bond to ?

A

gold
stainless steel
porcelain

24
Q

polycarboxylates are mildly irritant. why?

A

acidic but have a high molecular weight reducing penetration

25
Q

positives of polycarboxylates

A

fluoride renders them bacteriostatic
thermal and electrical insulator
strength for amalgam condensation
good restorative material combatibility
adhesive to coronal seal

26
Q

what does RMGIC stand for?

A

resin modified glass ionomer cement

27
Q

positives of glass ionomers

A

bacteriostatic due to fluoride release
thermal and electrical insulator
strength to withstand restoration placement
adhesive
good restorative materials compatibility

28
Q

what is composite bulk fill

A

flowable composite with delayed/reduced shrinkage
allows you to fill cavity in 4mm increments rather than 2mm like standard composite

tricalcium silicate
calcium carbonate
zirconium oxide
water
super plasticising agent

30
