Wha thappens if you don't have a 90 degrees cavo surface angle?
|
You will have the amalgam breaking under function in the future.
|

What happens if you don't plane the margins?
|
this will break down and you get 2ndary caries
|
|
Over cutting the tooth causes?

Weakening the tooth. The more healthy in tact tooth structure you have, the more likely it is to last longer.

1. open contact - not fixable. Must be in the correct way.
2. gingival Flash/overhang- easier to remove if its a flash. overhang is not so easy to remove. 3. non-gingival flash - easier to remove. not easy to remove gingival flash. 4. hyper-occlusion - always check MIP, and lateral contacts 5. non-confluence 6. weird anatomy - need to know normal anatomy of the tooth 7. undercondensation |
