Know from google doc -10. Metal framework design (7): b. What about for an anterior bridge? - what type of connector is used? Rigid or non ridged and what are each of them?
"1. Connectors should have maximum height without impinging the gingival tissue 2. Lingual to contact area (to resist faciolingual flexion) 3. Approximal struts of metal should be continuous with lingual metal collar 4. If vertical depth on bridge is small, connectors should be extended onto occlusal or lingual surface 5. U-Shapped design of connector 6. Linguo-cervical area should be reinforced with metal 7. Anterior bridge with more than one pontic should have lingual strut of metal exted to the surface where space is limited Rigid connectors = cast connectors and soldered connectors Non-Rigid connectors = Key and keyway (5-unit FPD, tilted molar, dovetail or T shaped Key) or split pontic or cross pin and wing."
Read over from google doc - a. How do we prep and how much reduction do we need for a full cast metal and PFM crown?
"1. Occlusal reduction -- use depth cuts and maintain buccal / lingual inclines 2. Buccal / lingual axial reduction -- axial depth grooves parellel to path of insertion --- functional bevel of 45 degrees on functional cusp -- margin should start off as 0.5mm 3. Break proximal contact with thin diamond or needle -- may protect adjacent teeth with matrix band 4. Finishing -- Margin as smooth as glass -- ROUND ALL LINE ANGLES 5. Evaluation Full cast metal crown reductions --- 0.5mm margin --- 1.5mm for funtional cusps --- 1.0mm for non functional cusps (ONLY GAVE US MOLAR INFO) PFM crown reductions --- 1.0mm margin facially --- 0.5mm margin lingually --- 1.2ish facial --- 2.0 incisal --- 1.0-1.5 lingual (ONLY GAVE US ANTERIOR) NOTE --- ANYWHERE THERE IS PORCELIN WE REDUCE MORE THAN ANYWHERE THERE IS METAL ONLY"
Read over from google doc - a. How is it categorized and how does it bond to metal or zirconia
"A ceramic is an inorganic, non metalic, solid -- prepared by heat and subsiquent cooling --- two major componants = refractory crystaline structure (bricks) and glass (mortar). ~~Categorized/classified based on the following~~ 1. Microstructure - Glass, crystalline, or crystaline particles in a glass matrix 2. Composition 3. Principle crystal phase and/or matrix phase 4. Processing method - ex: CAD-CAM milling 5. Firing (fusion) temperature -- ultra low/low (crown and bridge veneer ceramic), med (denture teeth, presintered zirconia), high (denture / fully sintered alumina and zirconia core ceramics) 6. Translucency 7. Fracture resistance 8. Uses or indications 9. Abrasiveness Most popular fabrication technique for metal ceramic = Sintering ------ For all ceramics = Heat pressing; Hard machining; and Hard machining + heat treatment Polycrystalline = no glass componants; much tougher and stronger than glassy ceramics --- Zirconia Predominantly or particle filled glass ceramics (feldspathic) = More glass = less strength but better looking -- silica is a common mix-in" --------------------------- "How it bonds --- 1. Mechanical entrapment (22%) 2. Chemical bonding 51% 3. Compressive forces 26% CHEMICAL BONDING IS THE PRIMARY BONDING MECHANISM FOR METAL Compressive forces -- Many restorations made from metal and porcelain combinations having contraction coefficient differences between 0.5 and 1.0 × 10 −6 /K are known to survive for many years. FOR ZIRCONIA--- There is NO clear evidence of chemical bonding to veneering ceramics and MECHANICAL SEEMS TO BE THE PRIMARY MECH."

Displacement of Gingival Tissues - two methods [Final Impression / Tissue management by Dr. Lamberti (2) ]
(1) "Displacement cords" - Mechanical displacement with non-impregnated cord. • braided (Gingibraid, Van R) • knitted (Ultrapak, Ultradent) - Anesthesia IS necessary. - Chemically impregnated cord in an astringent (Hemodent) They contain aluminum or iron salts that cause ischemia. Aluminum chloride and ferric sulfate are suitable because they cause minimum tissue damage. - Preimpregnated cords with epinephrine should be used with caution. - A loop of retraction cord is formed around the tooth and held tautly with the thumb and forefinger. ------------------- - Placement of the retraction cord is begun by pushing it into the sulcus on the mesial surface of the tooth. - It should also be tacked lightly into the distal crevice to hold the cord in position while it is being placed. ------------------ - The INSTRUMENT MUST be ANGLED slightly toward the root to facilitate the subgingival placement of the cord. - If the instrument is held parallel to the long axis of the tooth, the retraction cord will be pushed against the wall of the gingival crevice, and it will rebound. - Excess cord is cut off in the mesial interproximal area. (2) "Electrosurgery" : • The inner epithelial lining of the gingival sulcus is removed • Access for a subgingival crown margin • Control of postsurgical hemorrhage • Passage of a high-frequency current through the tissue from a large electrode to a small one. - At the small electrode the current induces rapid localized polarity changes that cause cell breakdown ("cutting"). - PRECAUTIONS: Profound local anesthesia is needed => • Not suitable on thin attached gingiva • It should not be used with metal instruments • The electrode should not touch any metallic restoration (can cause pulp damage). • It should not be used on or near patients with cardiac pacemaker or insulin pump

(for inlays/onlays, 3/4, or 7/8 crowns indirect restorations). - Moderate to Severe (full crown coverage indirect restorations) - Severe structural damaged dentition(need to extract teeth for removable denture) (2) Defective Restoration (margin, loss of interproximal or hypo- or hyper-occlusal contacts, contour, or internal fit) (3) They can be severe structural damage, moderate, moderate to severe, and severe
[Gypsum & Alginate-5] (1) What will happen to your impression/stone model if you use colder water instead of room temperature? (2)If you don't mix it enough, what will the mixture appear like? (3) If you need to store it, how should you? (4) How do you disinfect it?
(1) Colder water will INC. the working and setting times (similar to effect of high W/P ratio bc too much water). (2) Insufficient mixing results in a grainy mix and poor recording of details. (3) Storage in either air or water results in significant dimensional change. If needed, impression can be stored in 100% humidity (wet towel around it) for 30 minutes prior to pouring. (4) Disinfection can be accomplished by immersion in sodium hypochlorite or iodophors.

(1) Finish Line = MARGIN; the terminal portion of a prepared tooth; the peripheral extension of a tooth preparation; the border of the prep where the prepared tooth structure meets the unprepared surface of the tooth. (imp bc marginal discrepancies disrupt smooth surface thus vulnerable to plaque accumulation leading to secondary caries and micro leakage at the margins). - *Five Major Designs*: 1. Slice-Knife-Edge (less destroy tooth structure; only on axial wall toward tooth is tipped). 2. Bevel 3. Chamfer / Shoulder with a Bevel (adding a bevel to shoulder creates acute edge of metal at margin; adding bevel to chamfer is for use w. metal restoration) 4. Shoulder (all-ceramic restorations only; 90 deg. internal line concentrates stress: coronal fracture). 5. Chamfer (cast metal restorations, acute margin, sufficient thickness and strength, rounded concavity, lower stress concentration within cement film; tho heavy chamfer has large radius internal line angle 90 degree surface for ceramic restorations) (2) Axial Reduction: Normal axial contours preventing periodontal problems. (3) Occlusal Reduction: - Functional Cusp requires a bevel.

How to Fabricate a provisional restoration/classification: Whats dif. between prefabricated vs. custom restorations? *Whats the dif between direct and indirect techniques?* What material is used for provisional restorations? [Provisional Restorations (5)]
1. Prefabricated vs custom restorations - Prefabricated forms: metal crown forms, clear celluloid shells, tooth colored polycarbonate crowns. Tooth colored polycarbonate crowns = The mold guide is held adjacent to the cast to select the correct crown size. With the crown on the preparation, a mark is made at a distance from the gingival margin that is equal to the amount by which the crown exceeds the height of adjacent teeth. Excess gingival length that extends beyond the mark is trimmed. The preparation and adjacent teeth are painted with separating medium. • The crown filled with resin is placed onto the prepared tooth. Gingival excess created by the expressed acrylic is trimmed back with a garnet disk until the margin coincides with the imprint of the finish line (arrow). • Occlusion is checked with articulating paper. Axial surfaces are polished. • Temporary cement. • All cement is removed from the gingival crevice with an explorer. 2. Material for Provisional restorations: resins. 3.

Read over /know from google doc - Metal Alloys and Casting - a. What is the function of these alloys?
Alloying elements are added to alter the hardness, strength, and toughness of a metallic element, thus obtaining properties not found in a pure metal. ------------------------------------- notes about alloys on the doc: - Noble metals (Ru,Rh, Pd, Ag, Os, Ir, Pt, Au) : defined on the basis of their chemical properties. They will easily react with Sulfer, or sulfides, and be resistant to oxidation, tarnish, and corrosion when you heat them up, do your casting, or soldering. - Base metals (C, Al, Si, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga, Mo, Ru, Ta, W) : defined on the basis of their chemical properties. They will not resist tarnish and corrosion that easily. They will have a little oxide that will form which leads to tarnish and corrosion. - Precious metals are defined by cost. Semiprecious is more for jewelers (stuff with lots of Silver). Nonprecious has mostly Nickel and Chromium. - ADA Classification of Alloys and their requirements Slide #8 - High-Gold alloys tend to be light yellow in color due to high amount of gold. Gold-Palladium-silver alloys tend to turn green due to silver content. Palladium-silver alloy tend to be whiter b/c lack of gold and can turn green. Gold-Palladium alloys have a thermal expansion that is incompatible with some higher-expansion porcelains. Palladium-Copper alloys shouldn't be used for large-span fixed partial dentures b/c a low Sag resistance. Palladium-Cobalt alloys are more susceptible to hot tearing and embrittlement from carbon when no silver is present.

60. Which of the following investment materials has an advantage that "provides enough setting and thermal expansion to compensate for the cast-metal contraction or porcelain veneer"? a. phosphate b. silica c. Ethyl d. Rapid-heat
Answer: A. WRITE OUT BELOW - PHOSPHATE-BONDED INVESTMENTS [Wax Investment (3)]: Available as a two-component system (powder and an aqueous solution of stabilized colloidal silica). Ingredients in the powder include powdered ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, calcined magnesium oxide powder, particles of refractory materials (quartz and cristobalite), and other metal oxides. Investments used for the casting of high-temperature alloys and for making dies used in the fabrication of porcelain veneers contain quartz and cristobalite to achieve expansion to compensate for the shrinkage of the cast alloy during cooling. Graphite is found in some of these investments to render them more permeable after burnout and/or to provide a reducing atmosphere. Advantages: - High strength - Provide enough setting and thermal expansion to compensate the cast-metal contraction or porcelain veneer. Disadvantages: - Can't be used with casting temperatures above 1375oC - Can make separation after casting difficult. - When higher expansion is required, more silica liquid is used, which can result in incomplete castings. - Bulk powder can react over time with air moisture, which will change the expansion setting and the ability to set to a strong mass.

Composite Resin
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF DENTURE BASE RESIN [Acrylic Resins & Temporization (4) ]
Critical to the fit and function of the prostheses. Characteristics of interest include polymerization shrinkage, porosity, water absorption, solubility, processing stress, and crazing. (1) POLYMERIZATION SHRINKAGE: Polymerization of methyl methacrylate to polymethyl methacrylate causes a density change from 0.94 to 1.19 g/cm3. When conventional heat-activated resin is mixed at the suggested powder-to-monomer ratio, the volumetric shrinkage should approximately 7%. In addition to volumetric shrinkage, linear shrinkage should also be considered. (2) POROSITY: Results from the vaporization of unreacted monomer and low- molecular-weight polymers. Likely to develop in thicker areas, but may not occur throughout the affect resin segment. Can also be caused by inadequate mixing of powder and liquid. Inadequate amount of material, not enough pressure during flasking, and air entrapment will also produce voids in the mass. (3) WATER ABSORPTION AND SOLUBILITY: PMMA absorbs small amounts of water when place in an aqueous environment. An estimated 1% increase in weight produced by water absorption leads to a linear expansion of 0.23%. Processing method may have an influence on the linear expansion, but the clinical significance is negligible. Denture base resins are virtually insoluble in the oral cavity. (4) PROCESSING STRESSES AND CRAZING: With a natural dimensional change, the affected material sustains internal stresses. Stresses are produced as a result of thermal shrinkage. Although dimensional changes can occur during relaxation of processing stresses, these changes generally do not cause clinical difficulties. It can produce small surface flaws or microcracks (crazing). Crazing is evidenced by small linear cracks that appear to originate at the denture's surface. (5) STRENGTH: Strength is dependent on composition of the resin, processing technique, and conditions presented by the oral environment. One of the most important factors in determining the resin strength is the degree of polymerization ( inc. polymerization, inc. strength). (6) CREEP: Creep is defined as "to change shape permanently from prolonged stress or exposure to high temperatures". Denture resins display viscoelastic behavior. Under sustained load, the material may exhibit deformation with both elastic (recoverable) and plastic (irrecoverable). If the load is not removed, additional plastic deformation can occur over time

What investment materials are commonly used in metal alloys? [Wax Investment (3)] [must know what is used for metal alloy]
GYPSUM-BONDED INVESTMENTS: Mold materials most commonly used in the casting of dental gold alloys with liquids temperatures no higher than 1080oC. Normally used for gold inlays, crowns, and fixed and removable partial dentures. Not suitable for high-melting alloys. COMPOSITION: All gypsum-bonded investment powder consist basically of a refractory filler and a binder, with small amounts (less than 5%) of important modifying agents. Refractory is either cristobalite or quartz (or a mixture of the two) usually present in the 55% to 75% range. Binder is calcium sulphate hemihydrate (either plaster or stone) . Modifying agents are added to control properties. Effects of Composition on Setting and Thermal Behavior: (1) Refractory Cast gypsum can resist temperatures as high as 1000oC.. Addition of silica reduces heat resistance, but helps to control dimensional changes. (2) Binder: When heated, the cast gypsum binder shows marked contraction. Total linear contraction of cast gypsum prepared from plaster and heated to 700oC can be as high as 3%. Shrinkage for cast gypsum prepared from a high- strength stone is about 1%.

Know feldspathic porcelain manufacture [Color : Ceramics & Porcelain (7?)]
Porcelain Jacket Crown (1903) by C.H. Land - made from feldspathic porcelain clay - fabricated by burnishing a piece of thin platinum foil over a die, and brushing layers of dry clay over refractory skeleton - was composed of about equal parts of kaolin, and fine grains of pure silica (in the form of crystalline quartz) - not very esthetic, too opaque. --------- - ceramic technologists began to formulate feldspathic porcelains with less and less kaolin until by 1938 kaolin was omitted as the proportion of aluminous kaolin decreased, the strength of the glass declined. ------------ Dental feldspathic porcelain structure: • "glass formers"- all are metallic oxides • SILICA IS MOST IMPORTANT (RED): *exist in 4 different forms*: CRYSTALLINE QUARTZ, crystalline cristobalite, crystalline tridymite and noncrystalline fused silica. - when the QUARTZ CRYSTAL is heated to its melting temperature, the silicon and oxygen atoms remain covalently bonded, but they begin to trade partners freely disrupting the orderly lattice. as the temperature rises above the melting point, more and more of the lattice disappears and the melt becomes thinner and thinner--i.e. less and less viscous.

SPRUING - KNOW [Metal Alloys And Casting (6)]
Sprue is the "channel or hole through which plastic or metal is poured or cast into a gate or reservoir and them into a mold". It forms a mount for the wax pattern and fix the pattern in space so a mold can be made. It creates a channel for elimination of wax during burnout. This channel allows for molten metal to enter such mold. Sprue button is "the excess material remaining at the base of the mold after dental casting". The sprue must be large enough so it remains open until the casting solidifies and short enough to allow rapid filling of the mold. It should ALWAYS ATTACH to the BULKIEST part of the pattern. *Wax sprues are the most common*
Special Considerations for FPD: St 1. Tooth position and alignment are maintained in part by the interaction between teeth. St2. A fixed partial denture may be *fabricated* without first re-establishing the occlusal plane. [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)]
St 1 is True. St 2 is so false - you need to make sure occlusion is restored by correction of occlusal plane in conjunction with placement of FPD. Since when a tooth is removed/lost, adjacent teeth often migrate into the vacated spot. So if you fabricate the FPD without first re-establishing the occlusal plane, an occlusal interference may be created.

(B) - Fixed partial denture using a proximal half crown as a retainer on a tilted molar abutment. - Fixed partial denture using a telescope crown and coping as a retainer on a tilted molar abutment. - A nonrigid connector on the distal aspect of the premolar retainer compensates for the inclination of the tilted molar.
[Gypsum & Alginate-5] Fill in the blanks about the The Setting Process: WHAT R THE 4 STAGES OF SETTING?
When hemihydrate (traditional plaster) is mixed w. water in the correct proportions, a thick slurry is formed. Mix is a two-phase suspension of hemihydrate particles in a saturated aqueous solution. The setting reaction is the reverse of the first stage of dehydration and is EXOthermic. (2CaSO4 • 1/2H20 + 3H20 → 2CaSO4 • 2H20) . The DIFFERENT WATER REQUIREMENTS of plaster, stone, and high- strength stone are mainly the result of differences in the apparent DENSITY of the powder. The setting process is continuous from the beginning of mixing until the setting reaction is complete. The four stages of setting can be designated as (1) FLUID, (2) PLASTIC, (3) FRIABLE, and (4) CARVABLE The setting reaction causes a decrease in the true volume of the reactants. Once the mix begins to solidify, an isotropic expansion is observed.

GEOMETRY OF the tooth PREP: - taper (6 - 10; 10 to 20 is acceptable; 2 to 3 deg for round end tapered) - escape of excess luting agent. - slight undercuts in cylindrical prep preventing the restoration from seating. - More Surface area => more retentive (molar > premolar at the same taper). - stress concentration in luting agent or cement: round occluso-axial line angle; cohesive failure. - type of preparation: partial vs. full coverage; groove or box; -> limit the paths of insertion. 3. ROUGHNESS OF the FITTING SURFACE of the restoration: - roughen or groove the internal surface of restoration by air abrading w. 50u alumina. 4. MATERIALS being cemented: - casting alloy: base metal > gold w. polycarboxylate. - core or buildup material: composite vs. amalgam. 5. Film thickness and PROPERTIES OF LUTING AGENT OR CEMENT: - Type: ZPC< glass ionomer< adhesive resin - Film thickness: uncertain)
Impressions can be useful for all of the following except: a. Evaluate the relative alignment between maxillary and mandibular arches. b. Evaluate occlusal relationship c.

Which of the following is not a Disadvantage of Porcelain-Fused to metal Crown (metal ceramic crown)? a. Significant tooth reduction: :63-72% by weight. b. Fracture of porcelain: metal coping design and/or fabrication technique. c. Difficult to obtain accurate occlusion due to the glazed porcelain. d. SHADE SELECTION e. INFERIOR esthetics to all ceramic crown. f. Superior esthetics comparing to full metal crown g. Expensive
f is answer bc its an advantage and all rest are disadvantages: • Advantages of Porcelain Fused to Metal crown: - Superior esthetics comparing to full metal crown • Disadvantages of Porcelain Fused to Metal crown: 1. Significant tooth reduction: 63 - 72% by weight. 2. Fracture of porcelain: metal coping design and/ or fabrication technique 3. Difficult to obtain accurate occlusion due to the glazed porcelain 4. Shade selection 5. Inferior esthetics to all ceramic crown 6. Expensive
Which restoration will last longer? This is the restoration type that has more RETENTION (for single-tooth restoration). a. Complex Amalgam b. Metal Inlay c. Glass Ionomer d. Composite Resin e. MOD Onlay f. All-Ceramic Crown g. Metal-Ceramic Crown [red boxed] [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)]
f. *Lasts Longest = All metal crown & metal-ceramic crown* The All-Ceramic crown does in fact have good retention, but metal-ceramic is better. Also, the BEST retention is provided by ceramic veneer.
The walls of _____ and ________ grooves can counteract mesiodistal torque resulting from force applied to the pontic. [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)] [MUST KNOW how to analyze an abutment]
facial and lingual grooves.
[Occlusion And Articulator (10)] the angle between the working and non working paths is greater on teeth located __________ from the condyle
farther
When is an intermediate (pier) abutment used? [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)]
frequently occurring situation in which a healthy tooth is located in between terminal abutments to support an FPD. usually max 1st pm & are missing, leaving the max. 2nd PM as pier abutment.
A cantilever pontic can be used to replace a first premolar if ___________ are used on the second premolar and first molar abutments. [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)]
full veneer retainers
Color Rendering Index (CRI) [Color Science (2)] [know red]
goes from 0-100. Indicates how well a light source renders color as compared to a standard source (i.e. N. Daylight)
MATERIAL SPECIFIC (red) shade guides should be used for? [Color Science (2)]
i.e. for e.max (lithium disilicate) - high translucency - low translucency - medium translucency - medium opacity. [know: • main crystals found in porcelain (leucite, lithium disilicate, zr) • strength • esthetics]
[Occlusion And Articulator (10)] Distance from CR to protrusion is called? how long? [ must know Occlusal Morphology]
immediate side shift 0-2.6 mm (- If u have immediate side shift, cusps should be shorter. vs... - If condylar guidance is steeper, cusps of molar can be longer. )
Forces on a full-size molar cantilever pontic place great stress on the __________ abutment. [Diagnosis And Txt Plan (9)]
mesial (maybe this is bc of mesial drift?)
For Shade Matching, we want to use what temperature and color rendering index? (know from google doc)
northern daylight = 6500K and is the ONLY light sutable for shade matching. --- We want a temperature of *5,500 and color rendering index of 90*
Which are more yellow - maxillary anteriors or mandibular anteriors? [Know] [Color Science (2)]
o MAXILLARY ANTERIOR TEETH ARE SLIGHTLY MORE YELLOW THAN MANDIBULAR ANTERIOR TEETH (RED). o maxillary central incisors are higher in value than maxillary laterals incisors and canines o no significant differences between color of male and female teeth o with age teeth become darker and more yellow (why?)
