Dental Materials Types Of the Cements Introduction
2
Silicate Cements Silicate cements were introduced in 1903 as anterior esthetic filling materials. They are translucent . Silicates are attacked by oral fluids and in time degrade. The average life of a silicate restoration is four years. 1- 25 years. Silicates are rarely used nowadays. This is due to development of better materials like composite resin and glass ionomer cements.
3
Applications Esthetic restoration of anterior teeth
Intermediate restoration in caries active mouths.
4
Anticariogenic Properties
The anticariogenic property is due to presence of 15% flouride. Flouride release is slow and occurs throughout the life of the restoration. Mech. Of anticariogenic effect are : It makes the adjacent tooth structure more resistant to acid decalcification. It acts as an antibacterial agent. It acts as an enzyme inhibitor and thus prevents the metabolism of carbohydrates.
5
Zinc Phosphate Cement Applications : Luting of restorations (cementation) High strength bases Temporary restorations Luting of orthodontic bands and brackets.
6
Classification: Type - I: Fine grained for luting, Film thickness should be 25 um or less. Type-II : Medium grain for luting and filling, Film thickness should not be more than 40 urn. Available As Powder and liquid system . Capsules of preproportioned powder and liquid.
7
Composition Powder Zinc oxide 90.2% Principal constituent
Magnesium oxide % Aids in sintering Other oxides (like bismuth trioxide, calcium oxide, barium oxide, etc.) % Improves smoothness of mix Silica % Filler, aids in sintering
8
Liquid Phosphoric acid % Reacts with zinc oxide Water % Controls rate of reaction Aluminium phosphate or sometimes zinc phosphate % Buffers, to reduce rate of reaction Aluminium % Zinc %.
9
Setting Time 5 to 9 minutes
Control of Setting Time by:
10
A/ Manufacturing process:
1. Sintering temperature: The higher the temperature, the more slowly the cement sets. 2. Particle size: Finer particles react more quickly as a greater surface area is exposed to the liquid. 3. Water content of liquid: Presence of excess water accelerates, whereas insufficient water retards the reaction. 4. Buffering agents: When added slow down the reaction.
11
B/ Factors under control of operator:
Temperature: Higher temperatures accelerate the reaction P/L ratio: More the liquid, slower the reaction Rate of addition of powder to liquid: the reaction is slower if the powder is incorporated slowly. Mixing time: The longer the mixing time (within practical limits), the slower is the rate of reaction
12
Properties Compressive Strength : Zinc phosphate cement is stronger (103.5 MPa) than zinc oxide-eugenol cement but not as strong as silicophosphate. The set cement gains 75% of its maximum strength in the first hour. Maximum strength is attained in the first day. The strength of zinc phosphate cement is sufficient when used as a base or luting agent. However, when it is exposed to the oral environment, e.g. temporary restorations, its brittleness and low strength causes it to fracture and disintegrate.
13
Modulus of Elasticity :
It is comparatively high . This makes it stiff and resistant to elastic deformation. This is necessary when it is employed as a luting agent for restorations that are subjected to high masticatory stresses.
14
Solubility and Disintegration : This property is important for cements used for permanent cementation., it shows low solubility (0.06% Wt). However, in the mouth they show greater disintegration over a period of time. This shows that other factors are involved . Film Thickness : For Type I - Film thickness not more than 25 um , for Type II - Film thickness not more than 40 um.
16
Thermal Properties: Zinc phosphate cements are good thermal insulators and may be effective in reducing galvanic effects. Adhesion Property : The retention of a cemented restoration is by mechanical interlocking of the set cement with surface roughness of the cavity and restoration.
17
Biological Properties : Pulp response-moderate
Biological Properties : Pulp response-moderate. The acidity is high at the time of insertion . Three minutes after mixing, the pH is 3.5. It approaches neutrality in 24 to 48 hours. A thickness of dentine as great as 1.5 mm can be penetrated by the acid of the cement. If dentine is not protected against infiltration of this acid, pulpal injury may occur, especially during the first few hours. Pulp protection In deep cavities is needed Optical Properties :The set cement is opaque.
18
Manipulation : Spatula used Stainless steel. Mixing time 1 min. 15 seconds. Powder-Liquid Ratio: 1.4 gm/O.5 ml : A cool glass slab is used in order to delay the setting and allow more powder to be incorporated before the matrix formation occurs. The liquid should be dispensed just before mixing.
19
Procedure
20
Maximum amount of powder should be incorporated in the liquid to ensure minimum solubility and maximum strength. Note: An appropriate consistency is attained by addition of more powder to the liquid and not by allowing a thin mix to thicken.
21
Insertion The crown should be seated immediately and held under pressure till set. Field of operation should be dry. Varnish is applied at the margins, where the cement is exposed.
22
Zinc Oxide-Eugenol Cement
These cements have been used extensively in dentistry since the 1890's. Depending on their use they vary widely in their properties. To improve the strength many modified zinc oxide-eugenol cements have been introduced, e.g. EBA-alumina modified and polymer-reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol cements. Recently non-eugenol zinc oxide cements have become available. They are suitable for patients sensitive to eugenol
23
Classification: 4 Types
Type I ZOE - For temporary cementation . Type Il ZOE - Permanent cementation . Type III ZOE - Temporary filling and thermal insulation . Type IV ZOE - Cavity liners .
24
Composition Powder Zinc oxide 69.0% Principal ingredient
White rosin % To reduce brittleness of set cement Zinc stearate % Accelerator, plasticizer Zinc acetate % Accelerator, improves strength Magnesium oxide Is added in some powders, acts with eugenol in a similar manner as zinc oxide.
25
Liquid Eugenol Reacts with zinc oxide Olive oil Plasticizer.
26
Setting Reaction ZnO + H20 Zn(OH)2 Zn(OH)2 + 2HE ZnE2 + 2H20
Base Acid Salt (Zinc hydroxide) (Eugenol) (Zinc eugenolate)
27
Setting Time 4-10 minutes. The complete reaction between zinc oxide and eugenol takes about 12 hours. This is too slow for clinical convenience.
28
Factors Affecting Setting Time
1. Manufacture: The most active zinc oxide powders are those formed from zinc salts like zinc hydroxide and zinc carbonate by heating at 3000°C. 2.Particle size: Smaller zinc oxide particles set faster. 3.Accelerators: Alcohol and water. 4.Heat: Cooling the glass slab, slows the reaction. 5.Retarders: The set can be retarded with glycol and glycerine 6.Powder to liquid ratio: Higher the ratio, faster the set.
29
Properties: Mechanical Properties
Compressive strength:. They are relatively weak cements. The strength depends on what it is used for. The compressive strength therefore ranges from a low of 3 to 4 MPa upto MPa. Particle size affects the strength. In general, the smaller the particle size, the stronger the cement. The strength can also be increased by reinforcing with alumina-EBA or polymers
30
Tensile strength: Ranges from 0.32 to 5.3 MPa.
Modulus of elasticity This is an important property for those cements intended for use as bases.
31
Thermal Properties are approximately the same as for human dentin
Solubility and Disintegration :The solubility of the set cement is highest among the cements (0.4% wt). They disintegrate in oral fluids. This break down is due to hydrolysis of the zinc eugenolate matrix to form zinc hydroxide and eugenol. Solubility is reduced by increasing the P/L ratio ..
32
Film Thickness : The film thickness of zinc oxide-eugenol cements (25 um) is higher than other cements. Adhesion :They do not adhere well to enamel or dentin. This is one reason why they are not often used for final cementation of crowns and bridges. The other reasons are low strength and high solubility.
33
Biological Properties : pH and effect on pulp: (pH is 6. 6 to 8. 0)
Biological Properties : pH and effect on pulp: (pH is 6.6 to 8.0). They are the least irritating of all cements. the Bacteriostatic and obtundant properties: They inhibit the growth of bacteria and have soothing effect (obtundant) on the pulp in deep cavities, reducing pain. Optical Properties :The set cement is opaque.
34
Manipulation The bottles are shaken gently. Measured quantity of powder and liquid is dispensed onto a cool glass slab. The bulk of the powder is incorporated into the liquid and spatulated thoroughly in a circular motion with a stiff bladed stainless steel spatula. Smaller increments are then added until the mix is complete.
35
Setting Time 4-10 minutes. ZOE cements set quickly in the mouth due to moisture and heat.
