MSA 2012 Flashcards
3 materials used for crowns
metal (gold, nickel, chromium, titanium)
metal ceramic (porcelain fused to metal)
all ceramic (milled)
4 types of post
smooth/threaded/serrated
parallel or tapered
metal/fibre
prefabricated/casted
name given to residual collar of dentine required before placing a post
ferrule
how much GP should be left in the canal space when placing a post
4-5mm apically
key purpose of post placement
to provide resistance, retention and geometric form to the otherwise compromised crown of the tooth
width of taper required for MCC crown
5-9 degrees
2 types of bone loss
horizontal
vertical
3 ways dose to pt reduced in normal radiographic technique
collimation
lead lined film packet
film speed
describe Compton scatter and how it differs from photoelectric effect
interaction of x-ray photon with loosely bound outer electron of atom. Electron is ejected due to greater energy of photon.
- Photon has lower energy after collision and undergoes change in direction
in photoelectric effect, there is interaction of the photon with the inner shell electron
- complete absorption of the photon and no scatter
metal used to absorb heat energy generated during X-ray production
copper
2 other metals (not copper) used in x-ray production
tungsten
alumnium
mental nerve is a branch of
inferior alveolar nerve
remove a retained root in 44
what type of surgical flap should be used
2 sided envelope flap - crevicular incision with distal relieving incision
EADT
EAT
(paeds)
extra alveolar dry time
extra alveolar time
3 potential storage mediums for an avulsed tooth
saliva
milk
saline
2 key points of information you would give to someone phoning up about avulsion
handle by the crown of the tooth
wash off any debris and if possible re-implant and get child to bite gently onto tissue
splint used in subluxation
min time in place
flexible splint
2 weeks
fluoride regime for high risk 4 year old
pea-sized 1450ppm fluoride toothpaste
apply fluroide varnish an additional 2 times a year (total = 4)
0.5mg fluoride supplements
what age is it suitable to deliver mouthwash to paediatric pt
7
if able to demonstrate able to swirl and spit
fluoride toxic dose
5mg/kg
tx of 5mg/kg F toxic dose
give calcium orally (milk)
tx 5-15mg/kg F toxic dose
give calcium orally (milk, calcium gluconate)
admit to hospital
tx >15mg/kg F toxic dose
admit to hospital immediately
cardiac monitoring, life support (IV calcium gluconate)
retention of denture design feature
extension of flanges to function depth of sulcus and incorporation of post dam
stability of denture design feature
no interference with frenal attachments
materials that can be used in primary impression stage
impression compound
polyvinyl siloxane
impression compoud
- mucocompressive - displaces the tissues meaning a more accurate record can be taken with the master impression
- resulting in a denture which is tight fitting to tissues
- relatively cheap
- re-usable
polyvinyl siloxane
- low permanent deformation
- more accurate (less viscoelastic) than hydrocolloids
- more tear resistant than hydrocolloids
thickness of shimstock
8 microns
name this shape
Posselt’s envelope
RCP
Retruded contact position
ICP
intercuspal position
Pr
maximum protrusion
R
maximal mandibular opening with the condylar heads in the reproducible retruded position but no antero-inferior condylar translation
- arc (retruded arc of closure) has its centre of rotation passing through condylar heads (terminal hinge axis)- termed centric relation (CR)
T
maximal mandibular opening with full antero-inferior translation of the condylar heads
E
edge-to-edge position of incisors
RCP-ICP
path is termed a slide
- potential for horizontal, vertical and lateral components (lateral element cannot be seen in sagittal plane)
