Q

what can over drying of the etched dentine result in

A

collapse of the collagen layer

this results in reduced bond strength

it is essential to keep it slightly wet, also called WET BONDING

Q

dentine can be classified as primary, secondary and tertiary dentine

what is tertiary dentine

A

tertiary dentin is reactive dentine, this is localised formation of dentin on the pulp-dentin border, formed in reaction to trauma such as caries or restorative procedure.

Q

A

(Circumpulpal dentin, more mineralized dentin which makes up most of the dentin layer and is secreted after the mantle dentin by the odontoblasts)

Q

what is aprismatic enamel

A

Aprismatic enamel is a thin surface layer of the tooth, thought to be solid without individual enamel rods or prisms.

  • Surface of Aprismatic layer is 30um
  • Apatite crystals parallel and tightly packed
  • Essentially no sheath like enamel
  • High fluoride content (more acid resistant)
  • More difficult to achieve optimal etch

Q

dentine can be classified as primary, secondary and tertiary dentine

what is secondary dentine

A

(it develops after root formation has been completed and representing the continuing but much slower, deposition of dentin by odontoblast. The ratio of mineral to organic material is the same as for primary dentin)

Q

developmental dentine is broken down to 2 components mantle and circumpulpal dentine:

where is mantle dentine located.

A

(The outer layer closest to enamel is known as mantle dentin. … Mantle dentin is formed by newly differentiated odontoblasts and forms a layer consistently 15-20 micrometres (µm) wide)

Q

which of the following region of the tooth has the most water region

dentine

enamel

cementum

bone

A

water

27
Q

what is occuring in the translucent zone

A
  • 1st carious change
  • Loss of 1-2% mineral
  • 50% of cases
28
Q

which cell is of neural crest origin

A

odontoblast

29
Q
A
30
Q

what is the function of the hybrid layer placed after acid conditioning

A

: a hybrid layer is placed on the exposed collagen. They hybrid layer is a resin which consists of a collagen network. The layer is an interface between dentin and adhesive resin.

31
Q

what is the purpose of acid etch

A

These acids have an etching effect that causes surface roughening

32
Q

The dentine is present with dentine tubules inside, these tubules have curvatures, in the form of?

A

primary and secondary curvatures

33
Q

what is the name of the incremental lines present on the enamel

A

Striae of Retziius

34
Q

what does this structure form

A

enamel prisms

35
Q

the direction of the collagen fibres present in the dentine follow the shape of what

A

they follow the shape of the ADJ

this gives the dentine reinforced strength

36
Q

which of the following region of the tooth has the second most mineralised region

dentine

enamel

cementum

bone

A
37
Q

what is indicated on the cuspal region of the histology

A

Q

A

increase in strength

39
Q

are enamel tufts hypomineralised or hypermineralised

A

hypomineralised

40
Q

what is a ground section of a tooth

A
  • A section of bone or tooth prepared for histological study by polishing until thin enough for microscope viewing
41
Q

which two cells are found in the cell rich zone

A

odontoblasts and fibroblasts

42
Q

give an example of an an epithelical product

A

  • Porosity now 5-10%
  • Consists of large pores and small pores
  • In the dark zone – demineralisation and remineralisation occurring
