do you use retention grooves or sharply defined retention forms?
NO
Do you place proximal flares for ceramic systems?
NO
what are the disadvantages of ceramics?
potential to cause abrasive wear on opposing tooth structure
- repair difficulties
- multiple appointments.
What is the clinical divergence requirement for inlays and inlays?
6 degrees OR MORE
What is the isthmus requirement?
at least 1.5 mm!
how thick does your onlay/inlay need to be?
at least 1.5 mm
what are the indications for a ceramic inlay?

no…relative contraindication. You want to have supgragingival margins!
Do you need to use a temporary cement for an onlAy?
NO
what are the 4 types of ceramic styles?
- traditional feldspatheic-
- leucite based ceramics
- Lithium Discilicate
- Slip cast
what are 3 milled ceramics??
feldspar, leucite, lithium disilicate
NAMES:
FELT (delicate like FELT)
Leucy
and LIT DIS
Leucy LIT DIS Felt and milled it!
Do you cement or bond an inlay or onlay?
this depends entirely on the choice of material!
If you had the choice to cement or bond…what’s the better choice?
bond
Cementing may be easier, but bonding is better
Describe the process for feldspathic?
you resin bond to the tooth and the ceramic.
Etch the porcelain first with hydrofluoric acid
THEN use silane, then bond!
Silane brings porcelain to composite I thinK?
What is the process for lithium Discilicate?
EITHER!
