most dental cements have what kind of strength and solubility when being compared to other restorative material?
INFERIOR strength
HIGH solubility
what are three advantages of a varnish?
seal dentinal tubules by 2-3 layers
reduce micro-leakage and staining
dentin bonding agents largely replaced varnish
what is the pH of calcium hydroxide?
9-11 (alkaline)
what does alkali calcium hydroxide stimulate and what is it used for?
stimulates secondary dentin used for pulp capping
what is calcium hydroxide?
a liner/low-strength base
T/F a high strength base is
>
0.5mm for thermal protection over metal
True
False
FALSE! under metal
a high strength base provides thermal ___________ and __________ support for restorations
insulation
mechanical
why would a sedative be used for TEMPORARY fillings?
to evaluate the response of the pulp before placing a final restoration (in case a RCT is needed)
glass ionomer is used for which types of Black's classification restorations? (hint: "GI" Joes are Odd)
1, 3, 5
what is the strongest cement?
RESIN cement
what cement is highest in mechanical strength?
RESIN cement
if you want to strengthen the cement, what is it controlled by?
the amount of powder used
T/F an INCREASE in powder to liquid ration INCREASES the strength of the cement
True
False
TRUE! (BUT if you use too much, it weakens it)
what is the LEAST SOLUBLE cement?
resin-containing cement
adding powder to a cement will increase _________, increase ________, and decrease _________ of the cement
strength
viscosity
solubility
Dual cure is used in which type of which type of restoration?
one that cannot penetrate light
Which cement CAN you USE alcohol to clean up the spatula and glass slab?
ZOE! (she is so cool! she likes alcohol)
zinc oxide eugenol is used for what type of cementations? (2)
TEMPORARY and
INTERMEDIATE
eugenol has a _______ and _______ effect on the pulp
sedative and antibacterial
T/F eugenol cannot be used when dealing with the process of resins because it interferes with the polymerization process
True
False
TRUE
what is not used under composites before final cementation with hybrid glass ionomer or resin cements?
EUGENOL!
what type of CHEMICAL reaction occurs with zinc phosphate?
EXOTHERMIC
what kind of incorporation of powder to liquid on a cooled glass slab when mixing zinc phosphate?
INCREMENTAL
why is incremental incorporation of powder into liquid on a cooled glass slab necessary over a LARGE area? (3)
to dissipate heat
lengthen working time
neutralize chemicals
what is the liquid in a zinc polycarboxylate cement?
POLYacrylic acid
what liquid has minimum pulpal irritation in a dental cement?
poyacrylic acid (in zinc carboxylate)
which cement can no longer be used when it loses its gloss and become stringy?
zinc polycarboxylate
which type(s) of retention do zinc polycarboxylate cements have?
chemical AND mechanical
zinc carboxylate has ______ viscosity and ______ compressive strength
HIGH viscosity
LOW compressive strength
what does GIC stand for?
glass ionomer cement
which type of bond does a GIC use?
CHEMICAL bond with tooth structure
what kind of base does a GIC have?
HIGH strength base
which cement is fluoride releasing?
Glass Ionomer
what is the component that adds radiopacity to glass ionomer cement?
BARIUM
margins of restorations are coated with GI agent or varnish to protect from what?
MOISTURE
T/F fluoride releasing agents MAY have anti-cariogenic effect
True
False
true
what is a resin modified glass ionomer cement?
GI with addition of resin
what is a hybrid ionomer cement also called?
resin modified glass ionomer cement
what cement is virtually insoluble in oral fluids and is fluoride releasing?
hybrid ionomer cement
why is hybrid ionomer cement not used for cementing all indirect restorations?
because of fracture risk due to expansion (absorbs moisture after seating)
MOST METAL FREE indirect restorations can be cemented ONLY with _______ cements
RESIN CEMENTS
resin based cements are virtually ________ in oral fluids
INSOLUBLE
when should eugenol not be used?
in TEMPORARY cements when BONDING permanently is necessary
