Study Notes
Base and Lining Materials
- One of the reasons for using base and lining materials is to protect the pulp from thermal shock.
Ideal Lining Material Properties
- An ideal lining material should possess good thermal insulation properties.
Purpose of Insulation
- The purpose of insulation provided by base and lining materials is to protect the pulp from thermal shock, reducing the risk of pulpal damage.
Importance of Insolubility
- It is important for a lining material to be insoluble in oral fluids to prevent dissolution and maintain its structure and function over time.
Effect on Marginal Seal
- An ideal lining material should not interfere with the marginal seal, ensuring a hermetic seal between the tooth and the restoration.
