92
factors to increase stability in RPD
``` retention indirect retention bracing strong connector even distribution of rests ``` = obtained by all the factors which provide support, retention, reciprocation, bracing, indirect retention, occlusion, and connection. and correct function by pt
93
define: support
resistance to movement of the prosthesis towards the edentulous ridge
94
define: resistance
resistance to movement of prosthesis away from edentulous ridge along path of placement
95
define: reciprocation
the means by how forces acting on one part of the RPD are counterbalanced/ counteracted/negated by another part of the RPD
96
define: bracing
resistance to horizontal forces from mastication and tongue
97
problems of a) increased ovd | b) decreased ovd
a) increased ovd = decreased freeway space - difficulty speaking, difficulty eating,muscle pain b) decreased ovd - poor facial profile (collapsed face), generalised facial discomfort, lack of chewing pressure
98
define: indirect retention
the resistance to rotational forces of a tooth-tissue supported denture and palatal major connector away from the denture foundation area when occlusal forces (e.g sticky foods) are applied to denture base
99
define: stability
the resistance to movement of a dental prosthesis due to functional forces
100
What can occur with a Upper complete and partial lower?
combination syndrome- when maxillary complete denture occludes against mandibular RPD with distal extension- severe anterior maxillary resorption combined with hypertrophic and atrophic changes in diffferent quadrants of maxilla and mandible
101
indications for copy dentures?
- replacement of immediate dentures - spare set - wear of occlusal surfaces - loss of retention in otherwise favourable dentures - polished surfaces good and correct position of teeth
102
define neutral zone?
zone of minimal conflict of muscular displacing force
103
technique for copy dentures
Visit 1 • Four upper plastic disposable stock impression trays are selected and silicone adhesive applied to the inner surfaces of two and the outer surface of the other two trays. • The dentures to be copied are cleaned, disinfected and dried. An appropriate amount of polysiloxane impression putty is mixed and placed in one of the trays with the adhesive on the inner surface. • The denture is inserted occlusal surface down, and putty manipulated to within 2mm of the periphery. • When set, petroleum jelly is applied to the exposed putty, for ease of separation of the two halves of the mould. A second mix of putty is then manipulated into the fit surface of the denture and an impression tray with adhesive on its outer surface, positioned on top of the putty. The residue is wrapped around the tray. • When set, the mould is separated and the dentures removed. • The dentures are cleaned and returned to the patient. Visit 2. • Check that the templates have no voids or rough edges. • The templates are effectively used as special trays. They are modified with greenstick impression tracing compound to correct under-extension and to ensure properly moulded peripheries. Working impressions are taken in a light bodied silicone or zinc oxide eugenol impression material. The jaw relationship can then be recorded together with any modifications to the occlusal vertical dimension, with wax or bite registration paste and a tooth shade taken. Then the same as usual.
104
factors to check at trial stage
``` extension retention stability occlusal planes occlusion aesthetics and speech position of teeth occlusal height ovd / freeway space centre lines ```
105
Knife edge ridge management for lower complete denture
impression technique: take impression firstly as normal. then roll finger along ridge to identify areas of discomfort - check for grimace, then cut relief in imp and take again with mucostatic impression material e.g light bodied PVS put soft lining material on knife -ridge area surgery: to smooth ridge down
106
indications for shortened dental arch
``` sufficient healthy teeth good periodontal support pt acceptance reasonable aesthetics function ```
107
Correct posterior extension of an upper and lower denture?
maxillary- impression extends to hamular notches and 1-2mm anterior to palatine fovea mandibular- extends to retromolar pad and vestibular sulcus
108
3 ways to assess vertical dimension
willis gauge, callipers, check speech, visually with ruler and dots
109
2 ways to assess position of maxillary anteriors
labial profile, alma gauge, centre lines alma gauge - defines position of anterior centrals incisors

113
Steps of cavity prep
``` 1 outline form 2 resistance and retention form 3 convenience form 4 removal of remaining caries 5 finishing of cavity walls ```
114
principles of outline form (first step of cavity prep)
all fault or caries removed all friable or weakened enamel should be removed - avoiding marginal ditching all margins placed in a position to afford good finishing of margins of restoration- giving cavosurface angle correct angulations according to restorative material ( 90 degree for amalgam, obtuse for cast gold)
115
rules for outline form
rules- 1 extend to sound tooth structure 2avoid terminating the margins on extreme eminence e.g cusp height or ridge crest 3if extension include 2/3 of cusp incline, cusp capping is done for non adhesive restorations 4 extend prep margin to include all fissures that cannot be eliminated by enameloplasty (shaping of fissures to be non retentive)
116
What is resistance form of cavity prep?
refers to the design features in cavity prep which allow tooth and restoration to resist the masticatory stresses without fracture 90 degree csa walls parallel or perpendicular to forces rounded line and point angles flat and smooth walls

What is retention form of cavity prep?
refers to design features in cavity prep which allow it to retain restoration securely during function wall convergence (undercuts) increase length of wall - to increase frictional retention axial retentive design features (where base of box is larger than top of box)
118
risks of ortho
decal root resorption relapse gingival recession

how long ortho on for
18-24 months | 4-6 week visits
120
how to prevent decal during ortho tx
good oh f- good diet

ap class skeletal pattern
``` class 1: maxilla 2-3mm in front of mandible class II: maxilla >2-3mm in front class III: maxilla <2-3mm in front of behind ```
122
Convenience form features?
those that improve visibility and accessibility during prep and restoration
123
Finishing principles of cavity prep?
Noy's principles - - enamel should rest on sound dentine - enamel rods forming CSA must have their inner ends resting on sound dentine - CSA beveled and covered by strong restoration
124
What aspects of cavity prep ensure i) caries adequately removed ii) finished restoration margins are cleansable
i) access through enamel, removed infected, affected enamel and infected, affected dentine, clearing ADJ ii) no unsupported enamel, contact point cleared width and depth, do not finish on contact point occlusally
125
Describe the mechanism by which resin composite is bonded to dentine
Etch - 37% orthophosphoric acid, demineralises dentine surface, widening dentinal tubules and exposing collagen fibrils. wash then dry prime- invades space created from etching with primer monomer by displacing water by solvent. has a bi-functional coupling molecule = both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Bond- unfilled resin monomer, infiltrates spaces occupried by primer, creating hybridb layer which when cured forms strong cross linked bond to dentine. Includes resin tag creating micromechanical retention. air inhibition of surface layer leaves unreacted monomer to subsequently bond with incrementally build up composite.
126
post materials (6)
resin, cobalt chrome, type IV gold, carbon fibre, ceramic, stainless steel
127
length of post requirements
post extends beyond alv bone, 3-5mm gp remains in root, post is at least as long as height of crown being fitted, 1/2-2/3 of root length
128
bonding agents
bis-gma (med chain length) udma (short chain length) tegdma ( long)
129
3 methods for removing fractured post
1. gonon kit - corkscrew like, remove restorations, force to split post from tooth, mandrel screwed in and extracting forceps used 2. masseran kit - hollow trepans of differing sizes- to cut around obstructions in root canal 3. ultrasonic vibration
130
how to check for debonding of adhesive bridge
floss, prove, press and check for flexion
131
alternative tx for bridge
rpd, implant, nothing, ortho,
132
factors affecting implant
``` smoking perio status monetary status alternative tx options pt motivation mh consent ```
133
reasons for MOD amalgam fracture
``` pt factors- parafunction clinician factors: secondaring caries due to poor prep .:. internal stresses, poor compaction, curing or inadequate isolation imperfections in material residual monomer present occlusion not corrected ```
134
tx options for fractured large mod amalgam
remove restoration and re-restore direct restoration or indirect overdenture xla
135
causes of erosion
i) intrinsic - gord, vomiting, anachlasia, alcohol intake induced reflux ii) extrinsic - acidic juices, occupational exposure, diet
136
4 types of wear
erosion abrasion attrition cervical abfraction
137
factors needed for diagnosis of wear type
``` location of tooth wear history diet analysis toothbrushin habits clenching/grinding presentation (cupping/fragmented) ```
138
Causative factors for wear
``` diet habits drugs xerostomia mh parafunction tmd ```
139
tx for wear
``` ohi diet advice address habits/ parafunction, restorative, occlusal adjustment splint fluoride ```

CASE discoloured 21, 20 yr old male, exacerbating over 2 years. good pdh and pmh nil aetiology local factors to consider 5 restorative options
aetiology: intrinsic- pulp obliteration, internal root resorption, external root resorption, caries, plaque/ calculus extrinsic- diet,smoking, tanins, chx local factors: trauma history, diet, smoking, tanins tx: external/ internal bleaching, direct comp, veneer, crown, micro/macroabrasion
141
factors to consider in bridge placement and design
``` space available abutment selection support type of retainer aesthetics type of pontic colour occlusion (space for pontic) ```
142
factors to consider in implant assessment
history: pt motivation, hard and soft tissue availability, perio health, dentition, occlusion, available interdental and interocclusal space, mouth opening smoking, untreated perio = no implant lip and smile line mh- poorly controlled DM, immunosuppresion, scleroderma, bisphosphonates = incrs. risk of failure rads: quality & quantity bone, any bone path
143
difference between reversible and irreversible pulpitis
reversible has a sharp shooting pain on hot/cold stimulus, stops when stimulus removed whereas irreversible has a spontaneous dull ache pain which persists after removal of stimulus, keeps awake at night. Reversible responds to EPT an ethyl chloride, probably hyperreactive. irreversible has hyper or hypo response to sensibility testing
144
how to: evaluate post and core clinically and w/ rads
clinically: looking for visible or felt margin defects to check coronal seal rads: length, position, radiolucent areas, opacity of root, gp left, condensation of gp
145
what is dentine hypersensitivty
pain arising from exposed dentine in response to a thermal, tactile or osmotic stimulus. due to dentinal fluid movement stimulating pulpal pain receptors diagnosis through elimination of other causes
146
tx of dentine hypersensitivty
eliminate or reduce aetiological factors (i..e improve ohi, toothbrushing instruction, elimination of extrinsic and intrinsic erosive factors) decrease permeability of dentinal tubules - tp containing strontium/ f-, f- varnish, dentine de-sensitisers, dentine adhesive system or restoration

148
CASE | pt lost crown/bridge what would you do
provisionalisation- to provide aesthetics, function, occlusion, gingival health and contour, can fabricate directly or indirectly - direct: matrix (impression and vacuum form) or shells or free hand indirect: putty index of diagnostic wax up on study model
149
describe indirect fabrication of provisional restoration
- take putty index of diagnostic wax up on study model - carry out your intra oral crown prep - take alginate impression of crown prep - pour impression in quick setting stone to make a stone model of prep - fill putty index with PMMA and seat it on the stone model to fabricate provisional crown - once set, remove from model and modify/ trim fabricated provisional crown as required
