ASK pt if they use tobacco
ADVISE on benefits of quitting
ASSESS willingness to quit

Describe the 5R’S regarding smoking cessation advice
RELEVANCE
RISKS
REWARDS
ROADBLOCKS
REPETITION
- these are only used when a patient is not in a place to stop, aim here is to provide motivation to POTENTIALLY STOP.
what aids are there available to stop smoking
NRT
non-nicotene products
How can we work out pack years
no of packs/day multiplied by no of years the pt has smoked for
describe some NRT methods
- gum/lozenges
- e-cigarettes
-microtabs
-patches
-nasal spray
-inhaler
Describe some non-nicotene products
- hypnosis
- ‘dummy cigarettes’
-diet and exercise
-complementary therapies
how do we decide whether to intervene/treat caries
how extensive the caries are
- if more than 50% into enamel we treat
- if less than 50%, treat as enamel caries
ANYTHING INTO DENTINE OCCLUSALLY, WE INTERVENE
list ways we can dx caries
- rads
- clinically
- seps to see ID
- transillumination
- caries detection dyes
- dry/clean the tooth
time frame for pts radiographs
high risk - 6/12
moderate risk - 12 months
high risk - 2 years
what different types of composite do we have
PARTICLE SIZE - micro/macro/nanofilled/hybrid
WAY IT IS CURED - heat/light/chemical
TYPE OF COMPOSITE - flowable, bulk, conventional
Constituents of composite
filler (silica powder/glass)
resin matrix
camphorquinone (activator)
coupling agent
bacteria causing caries
s.mutans (aciduric/acidogenic, gram +)
lactobacilli - facultative
actinomyces (root caries)
How does caries cause damage
fermentation - the break down of acid
diff types of LA
lidocaine
articaine (if IDB unsuccessful)
prilocaine
Whats in an LA cartilage
LA agent
epinephrine
solvent
water
fungacide
List the 4 liners used to protect the pulp
zinc oxide euginol
zinc phosphate
hard setting CaOH
Resin GI
what is the gold standard for moisture control
DAM
provides airway protection
best way to isolate tooth
protects sts in mouth
properties/function of etch
removes enamel changing the structure of prisms
it creates micromechanical tags - lock and key effect
exposes dentine tubules and removes the ‘smear’ layer
properties/function of primer
bond has a solvent in, therefore need to make surface of dentine hydrophobic to hydrophillic
properties/function of bond
like a ‘glue’ flows into dentinal tubules and sticks w AID of primer
Name of mobility index
MILLERS MOBILITY INDEX
name of index to measure furcation
