Q

What does Satin Neoshine Polishers do?

A

removes scratches and imperfections for a smooth shine

22
Q

What are Hi-Gloss Neoshine Polishers?

A

high luster

23
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

enamel bonding is reliable, predictable, and strong

A

TRUE

24
Q

Acid etching transforms smooth enamel surface into what?

A

irregular (porous) surface

25
Q

What is the smear layer?

A

layer of organic and inorganic debris that seals the dentinal tubules
reduces permeability
caused by instrumentation of the preparation

26
Q

Why is the smear layer bad or good?

A

BAD: interferes with adhesion
GOOD: reduces post operative sensitivity

27
Q

How does the smear layer reduce post operative sensitivity?

A

smear layer PLUGS the dentin tubules
prevents the fluid inside to be exposed

28
Q

Which is easier: dentin bonding or enamel bonding? Why?

A

Enamel bonding
enamel structure is more structured/predictable
therefore easier to etch
DENTIN TUBULES and collagen are like a MAZE
Dentin is filled with fluids and enzymes that may interfere with bond integrity

29
Q

Dentin bonding includes which three steps?

A

Etch
Primer
Adhesive (Bond)

30
Q
A
31
Q

What is the purpose of etch?

A

removes the smear layer

32
Q

Etched enamel creates what?

A

microporosities
chalky/froster white appearance if you air dry it

33
Q

What does etched dentin do?

A

exposes layer of collagen
widens dentinal tubules

34
Q

Is resin hydrophobic or hydrophillic?

A

hydrophobic

35
Q

Primer contains a ________________- end that interacts with the moisture on the tooth and a _____________ end that provides bonding sites for the adhesive

A

Hydrophilic
Hydrophobic

36
Q

What is the primer’s function in dentin bonding?

A

infiltrates dentinal tubules
wets dentin surface
prevents collagen collapse
keeps the “spaghetti” moist/upright for micromechanical interlock

37
Q

Do we need primer for enamel bonding?

A

No

38
Q

What is Bis-GMA

A

part of adhesive/bond
bonds to underlying primer and overlying composite resin

39
Q

Why do we gently air thin the primer and the adhesive for a few seconds?

A

to evaporate the solvent which we no longer need at this point, leaving a nice thin layer of primer/adhesive inside the cavity prep
TO MAKE THE LAYER THIN AND NOT TOO BULKY

40
Q

What does the primer and adhesive create?

A

the hybrid layer

41
Q

What type of interface does the hybrid use?

A

mechanical

42
Q

What are resin tags?

A

adhesive resin lock into the microporosities of etched enamel and dentinal exposed collagen and widened tubules

43
Q

What kind of bond is there between the tooth structure and the prime/bond (adhesive)?

A

Micromechanical

44
Q

What kind of bond is there between the primer, the adhesive, and the resin?

A

Chemical

45
Q

Which generations reduced post op sensitivity since smear layer is providing some sealing of dentinal tubules?

A

6/7

46
Q
A
47
Q

What are the components of composite resin?

A
  1. Resin Matrix
  2. Filler (Silica)

Q

What are the characteristics of resin matrix?

A

Bis-GMA (resin) + initiator

  5. Nanohybrid
50

A

Promotes adhesion (chemical) between the filler and resin matrix

51
Q

What are the characteristics of macrofill?

A

large particles
good fracture resistance
low shrinkage
poor wear resistance
poor polish

51
Q

What are some characteristics of microfill?

  3. Dual cure
55
