Q

CEMENTS, LINERS AND BASES

A

¢ In Dentistry Cements, Liners and Bases describe more of a Function than a Specific Class of Materials.
¢ Often There is Overlap Between the Function and Chemical Classification
¢ Cements also refer to a Type of Materials such as a Glass-Ionomer Cement
¢ Confusing because a Glass-Ionomer Cement can be used as a Base.
¢ Glass-Ionomers can be Cements and a Base
¢ Zinc Oxide Eugenol (ZOE) can be a cement, liner
and a Base
¢ Calcium Hydroxide can be a liner and a Base

Q

Resin Based Cements

A

— Composites

— Compomers

17
Q

Oil Based Cements

A

— Zinc Oxide Eugenol

18
Q

Curing mechs.

A

CURING MECHANISMS
¢ Sometimes Light Cure Not Possible ¢ Cold-Cure for Methacrylate
¢ Water Cure for Cements

19
Q

REQUIREMENT FOR CEMENTS

A

¢ Low Viscosity but Good Mechanical Properties

¢ 25 μm Thickness

20
Q

HOW TO BALANCE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND VISCOSITY?

A

¢ For Glass-Ionomers it is the Powder to Liquid Ratio
¢ Powder = Filler
¢ More Filler = More Viscosity More Filler = More Modulus

¢ This concept is true for most Materials that Are
Set by Mixing a Powder and Liquid
¢ ZOE, Calcium Hydroxide
¢ Low Powder to Liquid also Increasing Working and Setting Time

21
Q

4-META MODIFIER

A

¢ Additive to Promote Bonding
¢ Very Common in Resin Adhesives
¢ Manufactures will Tailor Cements to Products

22
Q

ZINC PHOSPHATE

A

¢ ZnO + H3PO4 = Zn3(PO4)2
¢ Used for Crowns
¢ More of Legacy Material?
¢ Handling Can be Controlled by Powder to Liquid Ratio

23
Q

ZINC POLYACRYLATE (POLYCARBOXYLATE)

A

¢ Polyacid + ZnO = Cement
¢ Zn is only Divalent
¢ More of a Legacy Material
¢ Controlled by Powder to Liquid Ratio

24
Q

LINER

A

¢ A relatively thin layer of material used to protect the dentin from residual reactants that diffuse out of the restoration or oral fluids that may penetrate leaky restoration interface
¢ Thin Layer so Materials are Lower Viscosity

¢ Solution liners (2-5μm)
— Copal varnish-under Amalgam — Adhesives- under composites
¢ Suspension Liners (20-25μm)
— CaOH2 (Dycal)-under Ag or Comp
¢ Cement Liners (200-1000μm)
— GI (KetacCem), RMGI (vitrebond) — Under amalgam (Ag) or Composite

25
Q

Pulp capping

A
¢  Near exposure
—  RDT <0.5 mm
—  Indirect pulp cap
¢  Pulp exposure
—  Direct pulp cap
Apply Calcium Hydroxide (CaOH2) liner
26
Q

Defensive reparative dentin

A

15 days -cells differentiate

30 days-microscopic reparative dentin 100 days -radiographic reparative dentin

27
Q

CAOH2 LINERS

A

¢ Paste(CaOH2)/Paste (polyphenolics)
¢ Acid - base reaction
¢ Ca+ ions act to crosslink polyphenol groups ¢ Insulator
¢ High solubility (10-30% vol loss in 10yrs) ¢ Stimulates reparative dentin

Works by: ¢ Release hydroxide ions (pH>11)
¢ When ionized in low concentration — Stimulateodontoblastformation
¢ Dycal-brand name

28
Q

REINFORCED ZOE

A

¢ IRM (intermediate Restorative Material)
¢ B&T (base and temporary)
— Reinforced fillers (PMMA beads-powder)
— ZnO (powder)
— Eugenol (liquid) oil of clove
¢ Oil of clove acts as obtundent (dulls pain) ¢ Expands when set –seals
¢ *cannot use under composite ¢ *Inhibits polymerization

29
Q

BASES

A

¢ Are used to provide thermal protection for the pulp and to supplement mechanical support for the restoration by distributing local stresses from the restoration across the underlying dentin surface during amalgam condensation (or cementation of indirect restorations)
¢ Require Greater Mechanical Properties

All water based and acid-base reactions
