Know chart
GIC vs. Comp
What are key components of GIC powder/liquid?
glass- silica, alumina and fluoride salts
liquid- polyacrylic acid, water, modifiers
GIC key points
setting reaction is acid-based- polyacid attacks glass particles and set cement consits of...
residual glass prarticle cores
surounded by silica gel
bound to matrix of aluminium and calcium carboy late
some water is present in matrix
fluoride ions are also released into the matrix during the setting reaction
Is GIC cement hydrated?
yes, water can be gained and lost from the cement
Fluoride is released from ______ into the oral environment and can be absorbed from the oral _______ and re-released.
matrix, environment
What is RMGIC?
resin modified GIC
what is composition of RMGIC?
powder and liquid component like GIC and a hydrophilic resin HEMA
Explain setting of RMGIC
setting reaction initially involves curing of the resin followed by a slower acid-base setting
this gives:
slight increase in working time
greater control over setting time
some increase in strength
decreased susceptibility to initial moisture uptake
decreased susceptibility to desiccation
What are examples of setting RMGIC?
light curing
autocure
light cure and auto cure

**most are duel and use light to hurry along**
as the resin component increases the acid-base contribution??
decreases
What characteristics can be lost if too much resin is added to a RMGIC?
fluoride release
chemical bond
What is in a composite resin matrix?
UDMA
Bis-GMA- bisphenol a Diglycidylether methacrylate
What are the glass filler particles of a comp resin?
silica and quartz
What binds particles to resin?
silane coupling agent
What does the setting reaction (polymerisation) involve for comp resin?
linking of small chain molecules (monomers) to form large chain polymers
What does set resin consist of?
glass particles
bound in resin matrix
What are the key points with resin polymerisation?
there is no chemical bond with tooth substance
there is no significant fluoride release
the resin contracts on setting
What are some modification of comp resin to alter properties?
filler variations
aesthetics
strength and hardness
handling and manipulation flowable vs packable
What is a composer?
polyacid modified comp resin
what is the compostiton of a composer?
resin matrix substituted--> hydophilic resin matrix to allow water uptake for an acid base reaction. e.g. UDMA or activator/initiator
What are the glass filler particles of a compomer similar too?
a GIC, silica, alumina and fluoride salts
Why is there no chemical bond to tooth with composers?
to react with glass there is a delayed reaction with water absorption. Because of this some fluoride is realeased but not able to form chemical bond
What are aesthetics of compomers compared with?
comp resin
explain the strength and wear for a compomer
greater than RMGIC but less than comp resin
explain a Giomer
resin based with pre-reacted GI particles added,
fluorosilicate glass particles reacted with polyacrylic acid prior to being incorporated into the resin

* attempt to achieve properties of comp resin with fluoride, characteristics similar to composer*
