Study Notes

Biologic Principles of Tooth Preparation

  • The primary consideration for biologic principles of tooth preparation is the preservation of pulp vitality and prevention of pulp injury.

Causes of Pulp Injury

  • The following are potential causes of pulp injury during tooth preparation:
    • Heat generation
    • Pressure
    • Vibration
    • Desiccation
    • Chemical irritation
  • The following are NOT potential causes of pulp injury during tooth preparation:
    • Bacterial invasion
    • Microbial infection

Prevention and Conservation

  • The main focus of prevention during tooth preparation is the protection of adjacent structures and conservation of tooth structure.
  • The preferred method for protection of adjacent structures is the use of a rubber dam or a protective strip.
  • The preferred material for protection of adjacent structures is a rubber dam.
  • The purpose of using the proximal enamel of the tooth being prepared is for protection of adjacent structures.

Biologic Considerations

  • The main goal of biologic considerations during tooth preparation is to avoid pulp injury and preserve pulp vitality.
  • Biologic considerations primarily aim to avoid damage to the pulp and surrounding tissues.
  • The main focus of biologic considerations is the preservation of pulp vitality and prevention of pulp injury.

Reference

  • The basic principles of tooth preparation are covered in Chapter [X] of Rosenstiel's book, pages [X-X].
