Sixth 3 Flashcards
Does Violating conformity of surface texture (characteristics of natural teeth ) cause unwanted prominence of your restoration ?
Yes , it determine how light reflected , transmitted , scattered and thus effect hue , chroma , value , translucency
How does appearance of tooth determined ?
By how light interacts with the curved and varied surfaces
Heavy texture = more directions of reflection = less value
Which surface of tooth is the most important for aesthetic restoration and why ?
Buccal surface and it must be matched cause it determine how light interacts with the curved and varied surfaces
Attractive prosthodontic replacement starts with a consistent silhouette and shape of the buccal surface
Which surface of tooth is the most important for aesthetic restoration and why ?
Buccal surface it’s the must important and must be matched cause they determine how does majority of light will be reflected
Attractive prosthodontic replacement starts with a consistent silhouette and shape of the buccal surface
Which tooth or restoration characteristic we see them from 5-6 fits away and which we must be close enough ?
Hue , chroma fairly enough close
Value , surface texture , opacity , disparities 5-6 fits away
Which tooth or restoration characteristic we see them from 5-6 fits away and which we must be close enough ?
Hue , chroma fairly enough close
Value , surface texture , opacity , disparities 5-6 fits away
Because we mainly see the surfaces of a tooth that are perpendicular to us, WHAT we can manipulate and how it affect the surface width and length of the restoration?
Cause we see only the perpendicular surface we can manipulate the perceived width and length by bending or flattening the surface , you can make the tooth look narrow or shorter by decreasing the width or length of the direct buccal reflective surface .

How does maxillary incisors that are tipped lingually appear ?
They don’t reflect light , appear dark
How can we made the smile uniform without re-slinging the teeth ?
Bright it up
What’s specular reflection ? give an example ?
returns a high percentage of direct non-diffused ( straight , more directional )light, and if strongly illuminated, will be brighter and stand out .
Reflection from a smooth, mirror-like surface results in the production of a clear well defined image.
How does smoothing the texture of buccal surface will make teeth appear ?
Smoothing the texture of the buccal surface will make teeth appear lighter and brighter and therefore a primary determinate of value.
Cause light it doesn’t reflect in many directions
How does smoothing the texture of buccal surface will make teeth appear ?
Smoothing the texture of the buccal surface will make teeth appear lighter and brighter and therefore a primary determinate of value.
Which with time become smooth with specular reflective characteristics convexities or concavities ?
Most teeth have irregular surfaces with convexities and concavities. The convexities tend to wear and become smooth with specular reflective characteristics
What’s The visual impact of a tooth comes from these specular highlights of convecities wear
give the tooth its visual shape.
