  • wingless clamps are smaller and easier to place in mouth
39
Q

Five ideal features of cavity prep.

A
  1. Remove all caries and defective pits/grooves
  2. Access form - Conserve all healthy structure (except in class II)
  3. Retention form is created to retain restoration
  4. All enamel rods are supported by dentin
  5. Resistance form -material and remaining tooth can resist normal forces
40
Q

Enamel thickness is approximately?

A

1.5 mm to 2 mm

41
Q

As teeth age, the size of the pulp chamber _______

A

Size of the pulp chamber decreases with age due to tertiary dentin

42
Q

Minimum mesial ridge thickness of Class I prep?

A

1.5 mm mesial ridge thickness

43
Q

Define “Cavosurface”

A

Of or relating to the wall of a cavity preparation and the surface of a tooth.

The cavosurface angle is the angle (boundary) between the cavosurface and the sound tooth structure

44
Q

List 5 points that should be done to carious lesions prior to resorting to restroring

A
  1. attempt to reminieralize
  2. polish early lesions
  3. smooth off enamel defects
  4. increase oral hygiene
  5. assess diet for high risk cariogenicity

If all else fails, then you restore

45
Q

4 objectives to cavity preperations

A
  1. remove all defects and give protection to the pulp
  2. Create margins of the restoration that are as conservative as possible
  3. Cavity form is created in a way that will not fracture the tooth or restoration under masticaticatory forces
  4. Cavity prep allows for the esthetic and functional placement of restorative material
46
Q

Three biological consideration to cavity prep

A
  1. maintain pulp health
  2. prevent recurrent caries
  3. prevent gingival inflammation
47
Q

Three mechanical consideration to cavity prep

A
  1. Type of restorative material used
  2. Remaining enamel structure is sufficient and strong
  3. Masticatory stress (occlusion) is considered to avoid damage
48
Q

Factors influencing outline form

A
  1. extent of decay
  2. extent of demineralization
  3. undermined enamel
  4. esthetics
  5. locate the margin on smooth cleansable surface
  6. avoid terminating margin on cusp tip or fissure

NOTE: outline form is the outline of where you’re working whereas access form is cutting through good tooth structure to access decay

49
Q

Define: Resistance form

A

Resistance agaisnt fracture - the shape and placement of cavity walls that enable both the RESTORATION and the TOOTH to withstand functional forces

50
Q

principles of resistance form

A
  1. flat floors (perpendicular to long axis) - prevents masticatory forces at oblique angles
  2. Do not over extend buccal-lingual (isthmus too wide)
  3. Slight rounding of internal line angles to reduce concentration of stresses
  4. eliminate weak areas of tooth structure
  5. Allow for enough thickness of restorative material
  6. Avoid occlusal contacts with margins of cavity - opposing tooth should contact natural tooth or tooth and filling (not just the filling)
51
Q

Define: Pulpal axial line angle (PALA)

A

The angle between the gingival floor and the axial wall (the internal wall of the box)

Class II prep should have a PALA that is rounded

52
Q

principles of Primary Retention Form

A
  • convergent walls (class I, II, III, V)
  • Dovetailing outline (class II) - wraps around cusp to lock restoration in mesial-distal direction

Primary rention form involves the shape and form of the prep, while secondary retention form involves grooves and pins

53

A

Pulp capping

Cavity liners

Bases

A
  • Good control of occlusal and interproximal anatomy
  • excellent esthetics
  • good seal if cemented properly
  • good longevity
  • excellent wear results
    • gold = enamel
    • porcelain is more abrasive
65
Q

disadvantages of Indirect technique (restorations fabricated outside mouth - ie crowns, bridges, veneers)

A
  • costly
  • requires multiple appoitnments
  • a lot of good tooth structure may need to be removed
  • technique sensitive
66
Q

Three steps to amalgam placement

A
  1. condensation
  2. carving
  3. burnishing
67
Q

Treatment hierarchy

A
  1. no treatment (watch it, and modify factors)
  2. polish it and apply fluoride
  3. sealant
  4. Enameloplasty (depth: 0.25mm) and sealant
  5. Preventive Resin Restoration (PRR)
  6. Conventional restoration (amalgam or composite)
68
Q

Five reasons for class V resotrations

A
  1. caries
  2. replacement of faulty restorations
  3. erosion (chemical)
  4. abrasion (caused by excessive brushing and may have gingival recession)
  5. abfraction (caused by grinding or clenching)
69
Q

Abrasion

A
  • mechanical tooth damage (ie: hard tooth brush or rigorous brushing)
  • V-shape notch (deepens faster once softer dentin is reached)
  • not usually associated with caries
  • may be associated with gingival recession
    *
70
Q

Erosion

A
  • non bacterial chemical demineralization
  • smooth, dull, shallow depressions; margins are not sharply demarcated.
  • ie: bulimia, acid reflux, acidic diet (sodas, citric)
71
Q

Abfraction

A
  • Excessive occlusal stresses causing flexure of the teeth with forces concentrated in cervical area.
  • Leads to micro cracks within the cervical enamel making it more susceptible to abrasion or erosion (theory postulates that toothbrush abrasion works in combination with bruxing)
  • lesions tend to be much worse on the buccal surfaces of the premolars and the canines where patients are likely to place the most brushing force. It becomes progressively worse from the posterior teeth to the anteriors
72
Q

When do we treat an abrasion or erosion type lesion ?

A
  • Esthetics
  • Sensitivity
  • To prevent further tooth loss that could otherwise lead to pulpal damage or structural weakness
  • Caries secondary to the erosion or abrasion
  • Compromised periodontal health
73
Q

Dimensions of class V prep

A

axial depth:

  • gingival: 1.0 - 1.25 mm
  • occlusally 1.25 - 1.5 mm

Inciso-gingival dimension: 1.5 - 2.0 mm

Note: must stay within line angles of tooth and follow curvature of DEJ ( causes divergent walls, thus RETENTION GROOVES are important)

74
Q

Define: Reverse Curve

A
  • The result of blending together the proximal and occlusal portions of the prep, the outline resembling a backwards “S”
  • The reverse curve circumvents the cusps, conserving tooth structure and helps to create proximo-facial cavosurface angles that are as close to 90 degrees as possible
75
Q

Gingival Axial Line Angle (GALA)

A

The angle created between the axial wall and gingival floor (of the box)

NOTE: Accentuate the GALA with handtool to create retention groove

76
Q

Class II dimensions

A
  1. Axial depth (horizontal distance from cavosurfce to axial wall):
    • premolars: 1.0-1.25 mm
    • molars: 1.25-1.5mm
  2. Axial height (vertical dimension of axial wall from gingival floor to pulpal floor):
    • 1.25-1.5 mm from pulpal floor
77
Q

Retention Form for Class II (3 points)

A

  • Parallel or slightly convergent buccal & lingual walls in both occlusal & proximal box portions
  • Pulpal & gingival floors at right angles to axis of the tooth crown, this to preclude any lateral displacement
  • Buccal & lingual retentive grooves in proximal boxes as appropriate. (ONLY in slot preps)
78
Q

Resistance Form for Class II

A
  • Minimal thickness for restorative material on occlusal surface 1.5 mm.
  • NO undermined enamel at any cavosurface margin
  • Smooth cavosurface margins
  • 90 degree angle of amalgam at cavosurface, no flash (excesses), no ditching
  • Maximal Width of prep 1/3 intercuspal distance
  • Rounded pulpal-axial line angle, internal line angles
  • Rounded junction of occlusal & box portions, no sharp points
  • “Reverse S” where appropriate
  • Each portion of prep (occlusal & proximal) should be self-retentive, this to minimize stress at isthmus
79
Q

Define: Isthmus

A

The narrowest portion of the cavity preparation between the occlusal portion and the box portion

80
Q

Class II outline form

A

There is no predetermined shape for class II

The outline form is determined by:

  • occlusal morphology
  • proximal contact
  • extent of caries
81
Q

Enamel spur results in strong or weak:

  • retention form
  • resistance form
A

Weak resistance form (enamal easily breaks off)

Strong retention form (amalgam holds into place)

Note: if cavosurface is greater than 90 degrees it results in strong resistance form but weak retention form. Therefore make it 90*

82
Q

Three reasons for clearing contact in class II prep

A
  1. Ensure removal of caries
  2. Allow for proper carving & finishing
  3. Allow for follow up inspections

Exceptions to the rule: Conservation of tooth structure

83
Q

Classic signs of mercurialism

A
  1. Psychosomatic symptoms
  2. Alterations in affect or emotional lability
  3. Insidious loss of mental capacity (progressively affecting memory and logical reasoning)
  4. Motor effects (in the arms, progressing to incoordination, imbalance, and tremor in muscles that perform fine motor control)
84
Q

Three forms of mercury associated with disorders

A
  1. Hg gas (mercury vapor)
  2. Hg2 salts (inorganic form)
  3. Methyl mercury (organic mercury)

NOTE: Methyl group increases solubility in blood and lipids, thereby increasing distribution and bioavailability.

85
Q

Mercury exposure in amalgams occurs during the following:

A
  • Removal of old amalgam
  • Placement of amalgam
  • Release of un-reacted mercury
  • Chewing
  • Proportional to surfaces and corrosion behavior

A peak is observed the day after removal or placement of amalgam filling.

86
Q

Diseases linked (?) to mercury poisoning from amalgam

A
  • Autism (no - not linked to vaccine)
  • Chronic fatigue Syndrome
  • Alzheimer’s Disease (no - no difference with edentulist)
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Auto-immune diseases
  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
