these ALL are
CCTTR
Sit with feet in _____ with knees _____
tripod, lower than hips

calcium hydroxide
What do you condense first when placing amlagam?
the box
Voids in amalgam are often due to
placing to much of it at once
and not getting it full condensed
Marginal Ridge should be carved at the ________ and should be _______
- same height as adjacent tooth
- perpeidcular to the long axis
T band is moslty used in
pedo
When do you polish amalagm?
when rough and at the recall appt
after 24hrs
Hydrodynamic theory
small fluild movements in tubules–> pain
removing the smear layer
gives stronger bond
irreversible pulpitis
sponateous pain or irritaint that last more than 15secs
Order of hardness
cementum < denitn < enamel
outer dentin is harder than inner (deep)
What structure does this define: gray in color, shiny, semitransluecent.
Enamel
What is the smear layer?
the surface of denitn when cut.
