Week 3- Tooth Bonding and Adhesives Flashcards
what is adhesion
the state in which two surfaces are held together by interfacial forces which may consist of valence or interlocking forces or both
what is adhesive
a material, frequently a viscous fluid that joins two substrates together by solidifying and transferring a load from one surface to the other
what is adhesive strength
the measure of the load bearing capacity of an adhesive joint
what is failure of adhesive joints caused by
- cohesive in substrate
- cohesive within the adhesive
- adhesive failure or at the substrate adhesive interface
what are the factors that affect adhesion
- clean substrate
- wetting ability of substrate
- adhesive viscosity
- surface roughness
what is wetting ability
ability to maintain intermolecule contact with dental surface
how does acid etching improve surface wetting
it increases surface free energuy
what does viscosity depend on
surface tension of the liquid (adhesive) and of the solid (substrate)
how does surface roughness affect the bonding ability
irregular surface increases the bonding ability
- increased area for bonding
- increased adhesive interlocking
how does acid etching affect surface roughness
increases the surface available for bonding and intermolecular contact with adhesive
what are the bonding mechanisms to tooth structure
- mechanical
- chemical/adsorption
- diffusion
- a combination of the 3
what does mechanical bonding do
- penetration of resin adhesive and formatino of hybrid layer/ or resin tags within the tooth surface after polymerization - entanglement
- resin tags
what do resin tags do
micromechanical interlocking within the tooth surface
what is chemical/adsorption bonding
chemical bonding to the inorganic component (hydroxyapatite) or organic components (mainly type I collagen) of tooth structure
what is the diffusion type of bonding
precipitation of substances on the tooth surfaces to which resin monomers can bond mechanically or chemically
what is the bond strength, origin, composition, structure, and type of substrate of ENAMEL
- 20MPa to 53MPa
- epithelial
- 97% mineral (hydroxyapatite), 1-2% organic (amelogenin and enamelin), 2% water
- prisms
- homogenous
what is the bond strength, origin, composition, structure, and type of substrate of DENTIN
- unpredictable
- conjunctive
- 55% mineral (hydroxyapatite), 30% organic (type I collagen), 15-20% water
- tubular
- very heterogenous
describe acid etching
- introduced by buonocore through the acid etch technique
- very predictable
- chemical drilling
- most effective for enamel retention (5-50 microns deep)
- 30-40% phosphoric acid (37% is most common)
- application 15-30 seconds, rinse for 10 seconds and 25 mL water is necessary
what is the role of acid etching
- clean surface for bonding
- increases wettability and SA for bonding
- increases surface free energy to EXCEED the surface tension of the adhesive
- micro retentions: adhesive penetration and resin tags
- mechanical interlocking after adhesive polymerization
- MICROMECHANICAL BOND
what is the fundamental mechansim of adhesion
micromechanical bond
what is the type 1 etching pattern on enamel
- honeycomb
- dissolutino of prism cores
what is the type 2 etching pattern on enamel
- cobblestone
- dissolutino of prism peripheries
what types are the best bonds achieved in enamel
type I and type II
where are type I and type II etching patterns of enamel location
occlusal and middel thirds of teeth
describe type III etching pattern of enamel
combination of type I and type II
describe type IV etching pattern
pitted
describe the type V etching pattern
-prismless
- flat and smooth
where is stronger retention and more predictable bonding performance of enamel located
incisal and middle third of the tooth
describe the bonding performance of the enamel in the cervical third of the tooth
prismless enamel -> fewer and shorter resin tags
why should you bevel the gingival floor in class II preps
reduce the microleakage at cervical and ascending walls
why is enamel prep with burs more efficient etching
it reveals underlying prismatic enamel
