Test #1-2 Flashcards
What are the qualities that are needed for a base
- thick
- absorbs biting forces
- thermal insulation
- irritation to stimulate secondary dentin
what is the current belief that pulplal sensitivity is caused by
micro leakage not temp change
what is not preferred over a base material
bond, eliminates microleakage
what can be used as a base
any dental cement
what base cant be used under composite materials
ZOE
What base has a stronger matrix, has less effect on pulp due to neutral ZOE
EBA (ethoybenzoic)
why must zinc phosphate be mixed on a cool glass slab
exothermic*
Zinc oxide powder is mixed with __________ initial set is very_________
phosphoric acid, acidic
what is zinc phosphate not recommended for
deep cavit prep unless a layer of calcium hydroxide is first placed
what is the acidity like of polycarboxylate
acidic- but ph rises with time there fore its kinder to pulp
what restorations can polycarboxylate be placed under
all restorations, usually amalgam
what is the primary use of polycarboxylate
cement
what is the most popular base
glass ionomer
what are qualities of glass ionomer
strength, bonding, fl2, non irritating, anticariogenic
what are qualities of glass reinforced polymer
bonds to dentin, releases fl2
because glass ionomer is a polymer what else can it bond to
other polymer materials used in restorations
b/c glass ionomer bonds what does it reduce
microleakage at the interface
glass ionomer can be used under
all restorations
what are resin cements
fluid composites, less fillers
what are some examples of resins
mouthguards, bleach trays dentures, partials
what material will be used when the restoration is temporary
ZOE
what material will be used in a deep cavity prep
calcium hydroxide
what is used as a bonding agent under esthetic polymers, glass ionomers, composite and hybrids
acrylic resin/glass ionomer
What are varnishes being replaced by
bonding agents
What are varnishes used for
to seal cut dentin
T/F varnishes dissolve slowly in oral fluids and is not permanent
True
