Sweep 1 Flashcards
Facebow needed for multiple restorations because
you need to have the original arc of rotation in order to properly make occlusion in multiple restorations.
Internal space
Uniform space of
25 μ to 35 μ for the luting agent
Cement spreads evenly
• Reduced marginal gap width
Most accurate way to adjust
proximal contact with
shim stock
Metal proximal contact adjustment
DO NOT USE
COARSE DIMOND BURS since they leave a rough finish that is hard to polish.
Check
2. Marginal Integrity
§ Disclosing wax
§ Rouge in turpentine
§ Powdered spray (Occlude)
§ Water soluble marking agents (Liqua-Mark) § Elastomeric detection pastes
Use a small bur (1⁄2 round or 330) to
adjust the internal surface
- Stability
The restoration should not rock or rotate when force is applied.
Causes:
Nodules, distortion during impression making or distortion of a poured cast. In FPD: Parallelism between abutments, Undercuts, Pontic.
Occlusion adjustment
Use for porcelain the
porcelain adjustment kit and for Metal, carbide finishing burs, white or green stones
Metal crown occlusal surfaces are best finished with a
carbide finishing burs and white or green small stones.
A small football shape bur helps
enhance and maintain the anatomy of grooves and triangular
The gold polishing kit contains
Coarse Brown points and discs, dark green Medium and lighter green Fine points and discs
FINISHING AND POLISHING METAL
Start with a Moore’s fine white sand paper disc to remove imperfections on the axial walls and continue with abrasive silicone wheels
Contouring Porcelain Armamentarium:
- Flexible diamond disk
- Porcelain grinding wheel • Diamonds
- Porcelain adjustment Kit abrasive wheels and points.
Today gold solders are given a fineness designation to indicate the
proportion of pure gold contained in 1000 parts.
Group I
Traditional gold containing solder
Group II
Special solders which have the
brand name with a pre or post designation.
Don’t use a coarse or reg diamond bur for proximal contacts, because
If you use in high speed, and grind any ceramic, you can cause microcracks in porcelain/zirconia. Feldspathic procelain may correct if put back in oven.
Pre-ceramic solders
Are high fusing alloys that slightly
melt beneath the softening point of the parent alloy to be joined.
This solders ideally should flow well above the fusion range of the subsequent applied porcelain
Porcelain fuses about
1800o F
Steps in seating a crown:
- Proximal contact
- Mariginal integrity (intaglio)
- Stability
- Occlusion
- Contouring (contacts, embrasures, pontic)
Shimstock tells you exactly how
a contact will be. Floss will give you contact, but it is an acquired feel. Tightness is the thing to learn here.
Shimstock -
slide in between teeth and pull. IF you push and it holds shimstock, it is too tight. If you push and it drags, you’re good. If you push and it pulls through, check again with floss.
PRE-CERAMIC SOLDERING
DISADVANTAGES:
- Difficult (narrow melting range) • Volatilization of base metal (overheating)
- Microporosity or pitting
- Not good bond with porcelain • Color
- Corrosion
Post-ceramic solders
Are low fusing alloys that
melt bellow the pyroplastic range of the porcelain
