DENT 5102, Fall 2007 Unit 2. Restorative Materials Unit 3. Dental Caries
Restorative Materials • According to radiographic density beginning with most radiopaque • Group I. Gold alloys, amalgam,silver • Group II. Gutta percha, zinc oxyphosphate or other base materials, composite with opacifier, rubber base impression material, calcium hydroxide with opacifier
Restorative Materials (Cont.) • Group III. Porcelain • Group IV. Radiolucent. Calcium hydroxide, composite, resin
Severity of Caries • Early, incipient (1st degree) • Moderate (2nd degree) • Advanced (3rd degree) • Extensive (4th degree)
Location of Caries • Occlusal, incisal • Proximal • Lingual, palatal • Facial • Cemental • Recurrent
Recurrent Caries • Caries immediately next to a restoration • Inadequate margins or excavation • Pulpal necrosis • Metallic restorations often hide • Clinical examination
Adumbration • Between CEJ and alveolar crest • Diffuse radiolucency • Ill-defined borders • Presence of the edge of root • Clinical evaluation
Caries: Xerostomia • Therapeutic radiation • Xerostomia • Sjogren’s syndrome • Caries begins at cervical region • Extensive decay
Rampant Caries • Children • Poor dietary habits • Extensive caries • Proximal and smooth surface • Socio-economic factors
Factors In Caries Diagnosis • Location of the tooth • Surface involved • Size of the carious lesion • Restoration, material • X-ray beam angulation • Film placement
Factors In Caries Diagnosis • Film type • Developer solution – age • kVp • mAs • Room lighting • Observer
