bases and liners used for
protecting pulp, stimulate the formation of secondary dentin, blocks material during restorations, insulate tooth from hypersensitivity
bases are
never placed on… enamel, retention areas, surface margins
liner - calcium hydroxide(CAOH)(dycal)
comes in 2 tubes, compatible with all restoration materials, stimulates the formation of secondary dentin, used only on dry dentin, never placed on enamel
cavity varnish/ liner
only used with amalgam, seals dentinal tubules, improve marginal seal
application of varnish
uncap, saturate small cotton ball, place cap, cover tooth to margin, dry with air, repeat
insulation base
protects tooth form irritation
zinc phosphate
irritating to the pulp, seals dentinal tubules
polycarboxylate cement
non irritating to the pulp, dough like
glass ionomer
prevents microleakage, requirers the use of etch
ZOE
placed after dycal, eugenol - soothes the pulp, dough like consistency
light cured insulation bases
urethane dimethacrylate(resin material), stronger, faster, easier to utilize, long term release of fluoride to the dentin
adhesion of material to enamel is accomplished by
acid etch, self curing material(2 materials reacting)
direct restorations
amalgam and composite restorations
indirect
outside the mouth crowns, bridges, in/onlays, fixed veneers
etching
water solution of phosphoric acid, applied to enamel, 30 sec, helps adhesion to bond and restoration materials, rinse 20 sec
