Quiz 1 - Spring Flashcards
1557 carbide
Used for gross reduction and depth cuts, doesn’t heat up the tooth as much
170 carbide
Retention grooves, anti-rotational grooves
172 carbide
Retention grooves, refinement of isthmus and proximal boxes
1/4 round carbide
Pilot hole for pins, retentive slots and grooves
012 diamond
Breaking proximal contacts, light zirconia and Gold chamfer, light veneer preparations
77K-018 diamond
Heavy chamfer, limited access
78K-018 diamond
Most chamfers, occlusal refinement, this is the workhorse
016 diamond
All ceramic axial refinement, and rounded butt joint margin creation, also a workhorse
45KR-018 diamond
Posterior all-ceramic onlays, broader butt joint margins
023 diamond
Looks like an oval,
009 diamond
Tight spaces, rounding of line angles and point angles for all ceramic preparations
010 diamond
Beveled margin creation with Au partial coverage preparations, for interproximal area, only fine grit
Definition of a liner
Materials placed as a thin coating, usually less than 0.5 mm, on the surface of a cavity preparation
Liners are used for thermal insulation. True or False?
False. They are also not used to add bulk to a cavity preparation. Liners do not have sufficient hardness or strength to be used alone in a deep cavity
What are the five main types of liners?
- Varnishes
- Calcium Hydroxide
- Glass Ionomers
- Resins
- Resin-modified Glass Ionomers
What are the names of some varnishes?
Copalite, duraphat, dura-flor
What are the characteristics of calcium hydroxide?
Is basic, pH of 11, which inhibits bacterial growth and neutralizes acidic bacterial byproducts, is a pulpal irritant that stimulates the formation of reparative dentin, extracts growth factors from dentin matrix to produce dentin bridge
What are the names of some calcium hydroxide products?
Dycal, Life, TheraCal
What are the characteristics of glass ionomers?
Form ionic bond between carboxylates and calcium in the dentin and enamel
Provide sustained fluoride release to counter the effects of microleakage
Should not be used as pulp capping agents
Most common formulations are now in the form of resin-modified glass ionomers
Very moisture sensitive until set
What are the names of some glass ionomers?
Ketac bond, Fuji lining
What are the characteristics of resins?
High compressive strength
High tensile strength
Low solubility
Not recommended for direct pulp capping
What are the names of some resin-modified glass ionomers used as liners?
Vitrebond, Ketacbond, Fuji lining LC
What are the characteristics of bases?
Can be considered as restorative substitute for the dentin that was removed by caries and or the cavity prep
Are thicker than liners
Act as a barrier against chemical irritation, provide thermal insulation, resist the condensation forces on a tooth when placing a restoration
Can be shaped and contoured after placement into the cavity prep
Are often used to build out to ideal in preparation for either the direct or indirect restorative material
What are the main six types of bases?
- Reinforced zinc oxide and eugenol (IRM) (Don’t leave IRM under composite resin because it will soften it, and will also do so to acrylics, your temporaries. TempBond has eugenol and will do that)
- Zinc phosphate (Flecks) (Have to have good margins)
- Zinc polycarboxylate (A permament cement, might use on a temporary that is not very retentive, only way to get off is with ultrasonic scaler)
- Glass ionomer
- Resin (Compcore, Luxacore)
- Resin modified glass ionomer (Vitremer)
