Study Notes
Understanding Adhesive Bonding in Dentistry
- Adhesive bonding with resin cement provides retention and strength for restorations like inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, and veneers.
- Ceramic restorations, such as veneers, are fragile before cementation but become stronger once bonded in place.
- Adhesive bonding not only aids in retention but also enhances the strength and fracture resistance of restorations, particularly when bonding to enamel.
- The success of glass-ceramic restorations, like lithium disilicate or feldspathic porcelain, depends on proper bonding to the substrate.
- Proper etching of glass-ceramic materials creates small holes that attract resin, crucial for successful bonding.
- Hydrofluoric acid is used to etch ceramic materials, creating a surface attractive to resin, and its concentration determines the etching time.
- Bright yellow color of hydrofluoric acid serves as a visual reminder to differentiate it from phosphoric acid, which is commonly blue in color.
- The application time for hydrofluoric acid is critical and varies depending on the concentration and the type of restorative material being used.
- It is essential to follow the instructions for etching and not to exceed the recommended time, as it can have adverse effects on the restoration.
- Different restorative materials may require different etching times, and it is crucial to adhere to the specified guidelines for each material.
- Deviating from the recommended etching times for hydrofluoric acid can lead to suboptimal bonding and compromised restoration integrity.
- Understanding the materials used and following precise instructions for adhesive bonding is crucial for successful outcomes in dental restorations.
Bonding Restorations with Resin Cement
- Proper bonding requires precise adherence to instructions and specifications, such as using the correct time for bonding.
- The best bond is achieved by bonding to both substrates, with a well-prepared surface providing macro mechanical retention.
- A prep with mostly enamel results in a better bond than one with mostly dentin or core material.
- Certain materials, like cast metal, do not bond well with resin cement.
- Both substrates (tooth and restoration) need to be made micro porous and attractive to resin cement for effective bonding.
- It's important to ensure a small cement space and fit checker can be used for ceramic and metal-based restorations.
- Most resin cements are second, third, or fourth-generation and are highly effective, but may be difficult to remove if excess cement is present.
- Resin cement is a composite material, and like any composite, contamination should be avoided during application.
- Bonding restoration in patients who can't open their mouth very wide is not recommended due to the risk of contamination during multiple steps.
- Resin cementation is highly technique-sensitive and requires precise adherence to instructions for successful bonding.
- Resin-modified glass is more tolerant of moisture than bonded restorations, which are highly sensitive to technique.
- Inspecting the restoration before the patient sits down is crucial to avoid wasted anesthesia and ensure patient satisfaction. Anesthetizing the tooth is recommended unless specific conditions dictate otherwise.
Ceramic Inlays and Onlays: Key Considerations
- Ceramic inlays and onlays require gentle handling due to their fragile nature
- Proximal contacts should be carefully assessed to ensure proper seating
- Fit checker in blue can be used to check for proper fit
- The preparation for inlays and onlays needs to be cleaned and prepared
- Occlusion should not be checked until after cementation
- The external surface of the inlay should resemble a tooth, with pits and fissures
- Proper etching of the internal surface is crucial for achieving the desired appearance
- Both the dentist and the lab can etch the internal surface, but attention to detail is crucial
- Inspection of the etched surface is important to ensure uniformity
- Seating of the inlay should be carefully checked using dental floss
- Different ceramic materials may require different surface treatments
- Specific instructions for surface treatment depend on the type of ceramic material used
