Principles of Tooth Preparation (Pt. II) Flashcards
2)Resistance Form
• Features of a tooth preparation that enhance the ____ of a restoration and resist ____ along an axis other than path of placement
• Mastication and parafunctional activity subject prosthesis to substantial ____ and/or oblique forces
• Lateral forces tend to displace the restoration by causing ____ around the gingival margin
– Causing tipping of crown off preparation
stability
dislodgement
horizontal
rotation
(2)Resistance Form • Adequate resistance depends on – (a)\_\_\_\_ of the dislodging forces – (b)\_\_\_\_ of the tooth preparation – (c)\_\_\_\_ properties of the luting agent
magnitude and direction
geometry
physical
(a)Magnitude and Direction of the Dislodging Forces
• In normal occlusion, biting force is distributed over all teeth, mostly ____
• A carefully fabricated fixed prosthesis has the load well distributed and favorably directed
• Different habits (ex. ____) apply oblique forces and axial forces
– Adequate resistance form essential
axially
bruxing
(a)Magnitude and Direction of the Dislodging Forces
Force within margins, no ____ forces
Force outside margins, torque can ____ or rotate crown
lifting
tip
a)Magnitude and Direction of
the Dislodging Forces
tensile stress: ____ from tooth
shear: ____ with the interface
shear and compression: ____ toward tooth
compression: ____ to tooth
away
parallel
angle
perpendicular
(b)Geometry of Tooth Preparation
• Tooth preparation must be shaped so areas of axial wall prevent ____ of crown
• Resistance is a function of relationship between
– (1)____ taper – (2)____
– (3)____
rotation
axial wall
preparation diameter
preparation height
(b) Geometry of Tooth Preparation
(1) Axial Wall Taper
• Resistance ____ as taper ____
Tangent line formed by connecting ____ of all arcs of rotation
Area above tangent line is ____
decreases
increases
tangent lines
resisting area
(b)Geometry of Tooth Preparation (2)Preparation Diamete
• Resistance DECREASES as diameter ____
– Crown on narrower tooth has a shorter radius of rotation resulting in a lower tangent line and larger ____
Resisting area is above the \_\_\_\_
increases
resisting area
tangent line
(b)Geometry of Tooth Preparation (3)Preparation Height
• Resistance INCREASES as preparation height ____
In short prep, resistance is minimal because most of ____ is missing
increases
buccal wall
(b)Geometry of Tooth Preparation
• ____ in healthy tooth structure are effective in enhancing resistance form because they interfere with ____ movement (tipping) of crown
grooves or boxes
rotational
(c)Physical Properties of Luting Agent
• The higher compressive strength of luting cement, the higher ____ of cemented restorations
resistance
(3)Preventing Deformation
• A restoration must have sufficient ____ to prevent permanent ____ during function or it will fail
strength
deformation
(3)Preventing Deformation • The change of form or shape of an object • Prevention depends on: –(a)Adequate \_\_\_\_ –(b)\_\_\_\_
tooth reduction
margin design
(3)Preventing Deformation (a)Adequate Tooth Reduction
• Sufficient bulk of material needed to withstand ____
• Functional cusp requires more ____ than non-functional cusp for ____
• Occlusal reduction should be as ____ as possible, following cuspal planes of teeth
– Ensures sufficient occlusal ____ and preservation of tooth structure
occlusal forces reduction strength uniform clearance
(3)Preventing Deformation (b)Margin Design
• Tooth reduction should provide sufficient ____ for bulk of metal at margin to prevent distortion
