W3. Fundamentals of periodontal preparation, tooth aspects Flashcards
I. Tooth preparation
1. What is the tooth preparation?
The selected form given to a natural tooth when it is reduced by instrumentation to receive a prosthesis (e.g. artificial crown or a retainer for a fixed or removable prosthesis)
I. Tooth preparation
2. How is the selection of form guided?
The selection of the form is guided by clinical circumstances and physical properties of the materials that make up the prosthesis.
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
1. What are the 6 examples of Fixed Prosthodontics?
- Full veneer crown
- Partial veneer crown
- Laminate veneer
- Inlay
- Onlay
- Fixed partial denture
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
2A. What is full veneer crown?
Cemented extracoronal restoration covers outer surface of clinical crown
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
2B. What are indications for full veneer crown?
- Protect weakened tooth structure
- Improve or restore esthetics
- Restore the tooth to function
- Use as a retainer for fixed
bridgework
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
2C. What is FPD retainer for full veneer crown?
extracoronal restoration that is cemented to the prepared abutment tooth
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
3. What are the 5 Principles of crown preparation described by Schillingburg?
- Preservation of tooth structure
- Retention and resistance form
- Structural durability of the restoration
- Marginal integrity
- Preservation of the periodontium
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
3A. How should we preserve tooth structure?
- Avoide excessive destruction
- Design restoration to reinforce and protect remaining enamel and dentin
- Overtapered or shortened too much:
- no retention and reistance
- thermal hypersensitivity
- pulpal inflammation
- Necrosis
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
3B. Why are retention and resistance forms important in crown preparation?
- Geometric configuration of tooth preparation
- Retention prevents removal along the path of insertion or long axis
- Resistance prevents dislodgement of oblique forces
- Retention and resistance are interrelated and inseperable qualities
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
3C1. How do we use taper in crown preparation?
- Axial walls of a preparation must taper slightly to permit the restoration to seat
- Two opposing surfaces, each with a 3degree inclination (diamond held paralell to the intended path of insertion) 6 degree taper
- The more nearly paralell the opposing walls of a preparation, the greater should be the retention
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
3C2. Why are walls tapered?
- visualize preparation walls
- prevent undercuts
- compensate fabrication inaccuracies
- permit complete seating during cementation
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
4. Explain this picture
- CA:convergence angle - Total occlusal convergence of a preparation
- AI:axial inclination - Angle of the preparation wall relative to the line of draw of the preparation
- Sum of the axial inclination of two opposing walls equals the convergence angle. Symmetrical preparation: CA is twice the value of the axial inclination
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
5. What is the angle of convergence?
Respective relationship between 2 opposing walls
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
6. What is inclination of wall?
Relationship of 1 wall to the long axis of preparation
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
7. What is Angle between the hour and minute
Angle between the hour and minute hand at 12:01 is 5.5 degree
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
8. How do we hold Diamond rotary cutting instrument?
Diamond rotary cutting instrument held parallel to the path of insertion when preparing the axial surfaces:
- AI equals to that of the diamond being used 12 degree to insure absence of undercuts
- Overall target: 10 - 22 degree
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology - Retention and resistance
10. Why is occlusogingival a factor of retention and resistance?
- Occlusogingival length: factor of retention and resistance!
- Greater the surface area of preparation (longer preparation), the greater its retention= preparations on large teeth are more retentive than preparations on small teeth
- Cement creats mechanical interlocks between inner surface of restoration and axial wall of preparation
- Surface area can be increased by adding boxes and grooves - The shorter the wall the more important its inclination
- shorter preparations: as little taper as possible to increase resistance
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology - Retention and resistance
11. What are good retention and resistance forms?
1/ Limit the pathes of withdrawal=retention!
- long, parallel axial walls and grooves=good retention
- short, overtapered preparation= restoration easy to remove, less retention
2/ Limiting freedom of displacement from torquing or twisting forces in a horizontal plane=resistance!
3/ Additional internal features: boxes, grooves!
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
12. Why is structural durability important in crown preparation?
- Adequate space created by tooth preparation
- Occlusal reduction:
- Material of restoration withstand occlusal forces and create harmonious occlusion - Axial reduction:
- Normal axial contours preventing periodontal problems
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
13A. What should occlusal reduction of functional cusp?
buccal of mandibular molars and premolars
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
13B. What should occlusal reduction of non-functional cusp?
lingual of mandibular molars and premolars
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
13C. What should occlusal reduction for full metal crown be?
1.5 mm functional cusp
1.0 mm nonfunctional cusp
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
13D. What should occlusal reduction for Metal-ceramic be?
1.5-2.0 mm functional cusp
1.0-1.5 mm nonfunctional cusp
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
13E. What should occlusal reduction for All-ceramic be?
2.0 mm of clearance
- Provides space for a cast restoration of adequate thickness in an area of heavy occlusal contact
- Prevents thin casting and perforation
- Prevents overcontoured restoration and poor occlusion
- Prevents overinclination (destroy tooth structure, less retention)
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
14. How should axial reduction be?
- Space for adequate thickness of restorative material
- Prevent thin walls and weak restoration
- Prevent overcontoured restoration
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
15. How should Marginal integrity be?
- Margins of restoration must be closely adapted to finish line of preparation
- Configuration of the preparation finish line dictates the shape of restorative material in the margin of the restoration
- Finish line configurations: knife edge, slice, shoulder, (radial shoulder, shoulder with a bevel),chamfer (heavy chamfer, chamfer with a bevel)
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
16. What are the 5 Finish line configurations?
- Slice-Knife-edge
- Bevel
- Chamfer/ shoulder with a bevel
- Shoulder
- Chamfer
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
17. What are the features of Knife edge and slice finishing configure line?
- Less destruction of tooth structure
- Difficult to follow both on tooth and die, axial reduction fade out instead of terminating a definite finish line
- Thin margin that fits finish line difficult to wax and cast
- Overcontoured restorations
- Indicated only on axial wall toward tooth is tipped-preservation of tooth structure!
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
18. What are the features of Shoulder finishing configure line?
- Recommended for all-ceramic restorations only
- Resistance to occlusal forces and minimize stress that might lead to porcelain fracture
- Adequate bulk of material at the margin
- Require much tooth structure destruction
- 90 degree internal line concentrates stress-coronal fracture!
- Radial shoulder: rounded internal angle
- Shoulder with a bevel:adding a bevel to a shoulder creates acute edge of metal at the margin
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
19. What are the features of Chamfer finishing configure line?
- Cast metal restorations: acute margin,sufficient thickness and strength
- Rounded concavity, lower stress concentration within cement film
- Cut with the tip of a round- end tapered diamond, axial reduction with side of instrument
- Heavy chamfer-large radius internal angle 90 degree surface: ceramic restorations!
- Chamfer with a bevel: bevel added for use with a metal restoration
II. Fixed Prosthodontics Terminology
20. How should we preserve periodontium?
- Margins as smooth as possible
- Kept clean by the patient
- Duplicated by the impression
- Placed in enamel if possible
- Supragingival placement of finish lines whenever possible!
- Subgingival finish lines 2.0 mm from alveolar crest (combined dimension of epithelial and connective tissue attachments)
