What are cavity sealers used for?
|
They seal dentinal tubules. Provides protective coating for prepared dentin.
|
|
What are dental adhesives and what do they do?
|
They are a subgroup of sealers and provied pulpal protection by sealing out bacteria from the tooth-restoration interface.
|
|
What is a cavity liner?
|
A cement or resin coating placed over dentin as a barrier between the tooth and the restorative material.

|
What are the increments used for cavity liners?
|
Used in increment thicknesses of 0.5mm or less.
|
|
What are cavity bases used for and how are they used?
|
They are used in bulk thickness to replace missing dentin and support of the final resorations.
