Q

why can MCC be used in fixed dental prosthetics

A

because it can be a retainer due to its metal substrat to be cast or solfered connected
similar to cast metal crowns

Q

what is important for an impression to get

A
  • sufficient unpreparaed tooth structure immediately adjacent to the margin for the dentist and lab to identify contour of the tooth and all prepared surface
  • need to know contour
  • all teeth in arch
  • immediate soft tissue surrounding the prep
  • lingual surface of anterior teeth (lingual guidance)

heavy body tray

viscous syringe material

46
Q

how to help with dimensional changes in reversible hydrocolloids

A

thick as possible to increase volume to surface area

47
Q

Pros of polysulfides

A

high tear strength

easier to pour that others

48
Q

cons of polysulfides

A

messy
unpleasant odor
long setting time
stains clothes brown due to lead

49
Q

when should polysulfides be poured

A

right after impression despite better dimensional stability

50
Q

what tray is used with polysulfides and why

A

Custom to minimize bulk therefore reducing contraction

51
Q

pros of condension silicone

A

pleasant to use

short setting

52
Q

cons of condension silicone

A

hydrophobic
Poor wetting
low stability

53
Q

what was deveoped to overcome polysulfide disadvantages

A

Condensation silicone

54
Q

do patients prefer condensation silicone or polysulfides

A

Condensastion silicone due to its short time

55
Q

how to take a condesation silicone impression

set material very stiff- can break casts
imbition
short working time
allergies

58
Q

how does polyether set
