Functional Cusp bevel has what function
|
Structural durability
|
|

|
retenintion and resistance
|
|
Occulusal reduction on teh cusp has waht function? What is the proper name for this
|
Structural Durability
Planar occlusal reduction |
|
Axial reduction has what function in an all metal
what about the rest of the preps |
retention and resistance
the others are R&R and Structural Durability |
|
What characteristics of a crown add retention and resistance
|
Axial reduction and seating groove
|
|
What characterisitcs of a crown add structural durability
|
Functional cusp bevel and planar occlusal reduction. If you didn't do this then you would have really thin metal in some parts that would lead to a fracture.
|
|
What type of crown has a predictable restorative outcome
|
Full cast crown
|
|
what is the average lifespan of a all metal crown
|
7-10 years
|
|
How is an all metal crown better than a partial veneer
|
higher resistance and retention
|
|
In what five situations should an all metal crown be used
|
when cusps need to be protected
a retainer for a FPD non esthetic zone all axial surfaces have caries the existing restoration is on 4+ surfaces |
|
What is the occlusal reduction on a full metal prep
|
1.5 on supporting
1.0 on non-supportin |
|
Why is it important to keep the anatomy of the tooth
|
so that the crown is the same thickness everywhere, which will reduce fracture
|
|
An axial reduction of 1.0mm is seen on what type of prep
|
full metal
|
|
What odes overinclination cause
|
destroys the tooth and lowers retention
|
|
Why is it important to bevel
|
to keep the anatomy so that the crown is the correct thickness. If the lab goes ahead and puts the correct thickness then the occlusion would be off and you would trim it and then have a weak cusp
|
|
What is the correct path of insertion of a provisional?
|
perpendicular to the occlusal plane.
This should be taken into account when doing the prep, if the tooth is not in alignment adjacent teeth may get in the way of placing the prep so you need to reduce it in a way that you can place the provisional |
|
What type of finish line is used with a PFM, why
|
shoulder (1.5) on the facial and a Chamfer (1.0)on the lingual

Structural Durability Axial reduction in a full metal does not aid in structural durability. It functions in retention and resistance. How to remember: a PFM has a different front and back thus it requires extra structural durability and it achieves this through the axial reduction |
|
The Chamfer on a posterior PFM has what added function that the shoulder does not have on the same prep
|
The chamfers function is in
Marginal Integrity Structural Durability Shoulder = marginal integrity |
|
