Q

what happens in the maturation stage

A

al3+ salts precipitate for 24 hours
the setting process can continue for unto a year but very slowly
the formation of poly salts is continued

12
Q

what role does water play

A

slowly hydrates the mature cross linked matrix
this leads to increase strength
improved translucency
increased resistance to desiccation

Q

how does fluoride release

A

a rapid initial process

then a second slower much sustained process responsible for the long term release of fluoride

Q

what is the advantage of fluoride

A

prevents secondary caries as it promotes remineralisation

it is also the main reason for GIC replacement

26
Q

what is the survival time on posterior teeth of GIC

A

MEDIAN survival time of 6 years

27
Q

deserve resin modified GIC

A

RMGIC are glass ionomer cements with the addition of a small quantity of resin components

28
Q

what is the % of resin in set cement

A

4.5-6%

29
Q

what are the advantages of RMGIC

A
tooth coloured 
improved aesthetics 
medium fluoride release 
shorter setting
decreased moisture
improved tensile strength
30
Q

what are the advantages of RMGIC part 2

A
sets on command 
better wear characteristics 
easier to use
higher bond strength to composite 
fewer steps than composite 
can finish
31
Q

describe modifications of conventional GICS

A

less water- it is replaced by a water/HEMA(hydroxyethyl methacrylate)

32
Q

what is polyacid modified with

A

side chains that can polymerise by high curing mechanisms

33
Q

what does the polymer also contain

A

polymerisable functional groups of COO and COOH which can be cured with blue light

34
Q

what does HEMA stand for

A

hydroxyethylmethacrylate

35
Q

disadvantages of HEMA

A

irritating to the eye and known contact allergen

36
Q

how do we reduce the risk of allergic response to hema

A

minimise exposure

esp to uncured resin

43
Q

what does the setting mechanism 1st stage include

A

light curing induces the polymerisation of the resins

44
Q

what does the setting mechanism 2nd stage include

A

after water uptake the acid base reaction takes place resulting in further cross linking of the matrix

45
Q

pros of the setting mechanism

A

excellent handling
command set
good strength

46
Q

cons of the setting mechanism

A

poor adhesion

A

75 MPa

49
Q

what is the tensile strength of dyract

A

95 MPa

50
Q

why do GPC restorations fail

A

due to recurrent caries

51
Q

what % of GPC restorations fail due to recurrent caries

A

50%

52
Q

describe chemfil rock

A

added zinc which makes it stronger tougher and earlier
no need to condition the cavity
no need to protect with varnish

53
Q

describe new bioactive RMGIC

A

It chemically bonds to teeth, seals against bacterial microleakage, releases more fluoride and is more bioactive than glass ionomers, and is more durable and fracture resistant than composites
