Thermal Properties:

Heat conduction(metals vs. ceramics, polymers)
Metals>polymers/ceramics
Thermal Conductivity:
Rate of heat flow per unit temp. gradient for a given time
unit: cal/sec/C/cm

Amount of heat which passes through a certain material at a given time/distance/area
Specfific Heat:

table
cal/g/c

Table!
Thermal Diffusivity
Time rate of temp change at 1 point due to heat source at another point

thermal conductivity(K)/ Specific Heat(Cp) x p(density)

Time it takes to change the temperature of a given material
Thermal diffusivity Table
memorize?
Thermal Expansion: Coefficient
Change in length/ initial length x change in time
Thermal Expansion application? percolation?
TE of restorative material doesn't match tooth-->leakage of oral fluids(Percolation)

Percolation decreases with time as space filled with corrosion products
Coefficient thermal expansion table
memorize?
Optical Properties
Definition?
Color?
Reflectance of light from object reaching photodetector of eye

Color:
light source
Object
Observer
Color Visible light chart
Purple 400-blue 500-yellow 600, orange/red-700
Color Sensitivity
extremes less(blue,purple), most sensitive: green/yellow(550)
Color Variables
1 Hue(dominant color)
2. Chroma:(strength of hue
3. Value: Brightness or darkness of object
Munsell Color system
1. Letter/number combo
2. Poor stability
3. Inconenient
4. range of tooth shades only small portion
VITA Shade
Widely used

Hue: A(red-brown) B(red-yellow), C(grey), D(reddish-grey)
Value:light-darker
chromas: intensity(A1-A4)
Influence of Light
Metamerism
Fluoresecense
Metamerism
Different colors under different light sources
Fluorescene
Tooth enamel absorbs at 300-400nm, releases at 400-450nm

Brightness/vital appearance of human tooth
Translucency
ability of light to travel through material(Dentin opaque, enamel transparent/lucent)

difference absorption/scattering = differ opacity
Surface Texture
Smooth= shiny
Rough= matte
Mechanical Properties
Applied load = stresses/strains

Must be greater than max value to prevent fracture
Stress formula
types?
Applied Force/Cross sectional area

Force: axial: elongation/shrink
Shear: Shear
Twisting: torsion
Bending: bending
Strain formula
change in length/intial length

Poissons dental material table?
Stress-Strain Curves
apply forces and determine value of stress/strain

slope during linear= elastic modulus(stress/strain(alpha/e))

elastic modulus table
Stress-Strain Curves:
Proportional Limit/Yield Strength/Ultimate Strength(tensile/compressive)
PL=max stress at which stress is proportional to strain, above plastic deformation

YS: stress at which material strain changes from elastic deformation to plastic deformation(perm)
Ultimate strength: stress at which fracture occurs.
Tensile: fracture from tensile stress
Compressive: fracture from compression

See graph, PL =end of linear portion, Y.S. = variable
Resilience
Amout of energy that a material can absorb without undergoing any permanent deformation(Area under linear elastic portion)
Toughness
Total amount of energy b4 fracture
area under entier SS curve
Tarnish
surface discoloration via formation of deposits

easily removed
Corrosion
Chemical rxn b/w material and environment
Electrochemical Corrsion
Anode: Oxidation
Cathoide: Reduction
Electrolyte: supply ions needed at cathode, takes away corrsion products at anode

high electrode potential = noble cathode
low= active anodic
Galvanic Corrosion
Combinations of dissimilar metals in direct contact.

difference in potential = galvanic current

less noble material corrodes/loses ions to more noble(cathode)
galvanic shock in dentistry
dental amalgam+gold inlay
Silver force+gold inlay
Aluminum foil +gold inlay

Electrolyte= saliva/tissue fluids
Crevice Corrsion
Pits of restoration covered with food.

Base= anode
Surface = cathode
