Amalgamation process
1. mercury wets AgSn (gamma) phase
2. mercury reacts with outside particles
3. Matrix formed
4. Unreacted particles are captured
5.Mercury in entirely consumed
What are the 2 basic amalgam compositions
1. low copper (2-5% copper)
These are older amalgams has lots of corrosion and looks black
2. High copper (12-30% copper) 1980s last longer
Describe how the copper content changes the reaction
?
What are the different types of geometry of particles
1. lathe cut
2. spherical
3. blended
Describe the difference between good and bad zinc content
The good last 25-50% longer, its an oxygen scavenger (2Zn + O2 -->2ZnO) and suppresses oxidation.

Its bad if its contaminated with moisture, zinc reacts with water to release H2 gas. There is also a delayed expansion of amalgam
What is permite C and its characteristics
What we use and is
1. admixed (blend)
2. High copper
3. Zn containing
Describe some relevant points of the amalgam controversy?
Mercury is toxic
amalgam has mercury
lack scientific evidence
Name some things we use metals for
1. Cast metal crowns
2. Metal-ceramic crowns
3. Implants to replace missing teeth
4.Poste & core to restore endo treated teeth
What are some characteristics of metalic bonds
1. metalic elements have 1, 2, or 3 electrons in their outer shell, which are key to metalic bonds,electrons are loosely bound to nucleus. This makes metal more mobile
Whats the process of molten metal to formation of grains
Molten metal --->nuclei of crystalization--->crystal growth--->formation of grains
?P.3
What is a metal alloy? and difference between a pure metal?
Mixture of 2 or more metals. Pure metals can slide but but alloys can't slide past each other and are stronger. These are used for crowns and amalgams
What are some noble metals that strengthen
Au, Ag, Pd, Pt
What are some characteristics of ceramic bonds
1. Ionic and covalent bonding
2. Stronger than metalic bonds
3. Covalent >ionic
4. nonmobile ions
Check?
What is the microstructure of ceramics
Mixture of metalic and nonmetalic elements
- most common is SiO2, AlO3, K2O
SiO4
_________is the building block of ceramics
SiO4

What are some characteristics of polymer bonds
1. covalent bonds
2. high molecular wt.
3 Long molecules composed of nonmetalic elements
How do polymers form? and difference between monomer,polymers
Polymerization
Monomers are liquid
Polymers are sold
Name some important words to associate with polymerization
initiator molecule
activation
free radicals monomer
initiation
propagation
polymer
termination
T/F polymerization is a slow reaction?
False can be very fast
MMA to PMMA goes very fast 1000000 units/ sec
What can ceramics be adhered to?
Enamel and dentin
Name the four types of adhesioin? Hint DAME
Diffusion
Adsorption
Mechanical adhesion
electrostatic adhesion
______is the most important type of adhesion in dentistry, has impermeable surface, uses the lock and key effect and enamel bonding is an example.
Mechanical adhesion
________is used in dentin bonding, uses interphase, one is mixed into another
Diffusion
________uses chemical bonding(covalent, ionic, hydrogen, van der waals) and glass ionomer adhesion is an example.
adsorption and surface reaction
_______is a type of adhesion between charged molecules and is less important and the weakest.
Electrostatic adhesioin
Describe what etching does and some properties
?
Etching
?
What makes it possible to bond to enamel. Whats the most important one
Macrotags (interprism)
Microtags(intraprism)*most important
What happens as a restoration gets larger?
Ratio of dentin surface to enamel surface gets larger and have to rely more on dentin bonding than enamel bonding
What makes dentin different than enamel when it comes to bonding
Dentin is porous and wet (hydrophilic)
Resins are hydrophobic.Dentin structure varies with and experience.
Initial preparation is likel to encounter ______ _____
tubular dentin
What do you when bonding to tubular dentin
Smear layer created from prep (ground collagen and HA) adheres and interferes with bonding
When bonding to tubular dentin what type of etch do you do?
3o second etch with 37% H3PO4 and then rinse and remove excess water but DO NOT DESSICATE
What does wet dentin have?
inter-collagen fibers
Hybrid layer
?p.8
What makes bonding tough with dentin
oil and water don't mix
The glass surface is hydrophilic. Monomers are hydrophobic. Poor wetting and no bonding
