Study Notes
Class IV Cavity Preparation
- Involves proximal surface of anterior teeth, including the incisal edge.
- Conventional, beveled conventional, and minimally invasive preparations are described.
- Initial steps involve preparing a class III cavity mesially, using a diamond round bur.
- The class III cavity is then transformed into a class IV cavity by extending it incisally.
- Incisal edge is removed using a fissure bur with oblique reduction.
- Buccal enamel is beveled using a flame-shaped bur (0.5-1mm bevel).
Treatment of Crown Fractures of Anterior Teeth
- Fractures can be enamel, crown without pulp involvement, and crown with pulp involvement.
- Fracture type classification involves 6 types (1 - 6) and 9 squares. Class 1 is 1 or less, Class 2 ≤ 2.5, and 3-6 are extensive involving 3 to 6+ squares.
- Class 1 - loss of 1 unit or less of tooth structure (distal or mesial edge)
- Class 2 - loss of tooth structure not exceeding 2 squares (distal or mesial edge)
- Class 3 - loss of tooth structure not exceeding 2.5 squares covering 2/3 of incisal edge
- Class 4 - extensive fracture (at least 3 squares covering 2/3 of incisal edge)
- Class 5 - fracture covering 3 squares containing full incisal edge
- Class 6 - fracture covering 6 squares containing full incisal edge
Cervical Lesions
- Can be carious or non-carious.
- Classification based on anatomy and etiology (carious crown only, crown and root, only root).
- Non-carious cervical lesion (NCCL) is a broad term for wear, erosion, abfraction, and abrasion.
Cavity Varnish, Liner, and Base
- Preserves dental pulp health, prevents irritation (chemical, thermal, and mechanical).
- Used for medium and deep preparations (into dentin): varnish and liner, or cavity liner and base.
- Varnish is not used under composite.
- Varnish, liner, and base materials are incompatible with composites and block adhesion.
Temporary Restorations
- Aim is to save the prepared tooth surface and involve the tooth in function or release it from loading.
- Minimize possibility of fracture, drift or gingival growth into the cavity.
- Used in urgency, time-consuming treatment, multiple appointments or as needed for laboratory work, or treatment of pulp, separation, root canal treatment, walking bleach, prosthetic, or orthodontic treatment.
Amalgam (Dental Amalgam)
- An alloy of mercury with other metals (e.g., silver, tin, copper, zinc).
- Has properties such as volumetrical stability, non-toxicity, mechanical resistance, ductility, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and corrosion resistance.
- Different types of amalgam can have different compositions and properties.
Composites (Resin-based Materials)
- Classify composites by their consistency (flowable/compactable).
- Classify by layer thickness (liners, layered, bulk-fill).
- Classify by polymerization type (self-curing, light-curing, dual-curing).
- Key components are organic matrix, inorganic filler particles and the coupling (binding) phase silane.
- Monomers like BIS-GMA, UDMA, TEGDMA link to form a cross-linked polymer structure which is initiated by light.
Glass-ionomer cements(GIC)
- Involve an acid-base reaction forming a polyalkenoate cement.
- Composed of a liquid matrix and a powdered filler.
- Filler particles are reactive silicate glasses (i.e., Ca-Al-F silicate glass and/or Sr-Al-F silicate glass)
