Chapter 6 Composites

  1. What was the first tooth colored filing material
    Silicate Cements
  2. What are some properties of silicate cements
    • shrinkage left less than ideal margins that leaked excessively
    • Very acidic, highly irritating to the pulp, and highly soluble
    • anticariogenic
  3. What is the composition of silicate cement

  4. When did the first dental acrylic resin appear
    In 1948
  5. Who is responsible for major advancements in dental composites
    Ray Bowen
  6. What were the three major advancement made to dental composites in 1960
    • 1. Incorporated a strong ceramic filler particle into the acrylic polymer to form a much stronger dental restorative material
    • 2. Developed a polymer for dental composites by combining several monomers to form an oligomer - called Bis-GMA which has more cross linking. It’s stronger and has less shrinkage. Bis-GMA is made using bisphenol A (see next slide) as a starting ingredient
    • 3. Silane coupling agents – he incorporated a gluing agent that coats the filler particles and binds them chemically to the resin
  7. ______ is not a _______ of dental materials but it is a _____ of restoratives and sealants
    • BPA
    • direct ingredient
    • by-product
  8. Release of Bisphenol A after sealant or restoration placement is higher for first
    30-60 minutes
  9. What are the two phases of dental composites
    • Matrix
    • Filler particles
  10. Explain the matrix phase of the dental composite
    a polymer, typically bis-GMA and a diluent (both comprised of C=C) which is added to control the viscosity. Remember, the matrix polymerizes by addition polymerization activated by chemical or light. It is the weakest phase of a dental composite
  11. Explain the filler particles of dental composites
    • Filler particles (inorganic filler) - made up of ground glass (silicone dioxide) which:
    • reduces the amount of resin and therefore the amount of bad features (i.e. shrinkage, poor thermal expansion, wear, poor marginal integrity).
    • confers positive physical and mechanical properties to the restorative material (ex: strength, hardness, optics)
  12. What is a composite
    a compound of two or more distinctly different materials with properties that are superior to those of the individual components

    • Only 40-50% filler by weight
    • Smooth surface/easy to polish yielding excellent esthetics
    • easily chipped
    • prepolymerized resin fillers – these help to decreases polymerization shrinkage
  23. What are some characteristics of hybrid composites
    • 75 to 80% filler percentage by weight
    • Less curing shrinkage and good color matching
    • Thermal expansion and wear very similar to natural tooth
