Back of Veneer, when they came from lab hase been etched and precondition with silane to improve the bonding property with tooth surface, when you do try in, this surface may contaminated by your hand and oil based residue will stick on these precondition surface, to removed is simply wash the oil dirt with ethanol or alcohol. Pumice is used for polishing, you may take off all the silane apply on the back of veneer - and you need to precondition the surface again. Hydrchloric acid is a very strong and volatile acid that you probably will not find it on your clinic. Phosphorc acid is too weak for etching the veneer surface for cementing, however it used to etch tooth surface prior cementing.
For etching veneer, the best acid is HF - Hydro Fluoride acid - that what the lab use to do prior precondition it with silane.
I wish this will help.


to cut the LONG story short veneers are CLEANED after the TRY IN with pumice and water ...refer to the prosthodontics deck
 
Aspirin's ability to suppress the production of prostaglandins and thromboxanes is due to its non-competitive and irreversible inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme. Cyclooxygenase is required for prostaglandin and thromboxane synthesis. Aspirin acts as an acetylating agent where an acetyl group is covalently attached to a serine residue in the active site of the COX enzyme. This makes aspirin different from other NSAIDs (such as diclofenac and ibuprofen), which are reversible inhibitors.

Prostaglandins are local hormones (paracrine) produced in the body and have diverse effects in the body, including but not limited to transmission of pain information to the brain, modulation of the hypothalamic thermostat, and inflammation. Thromboxanes are responsible for the aggregation of platelets that form blood clots. Heart attacks are primarily caused by blood clots, and their reduction with the introduction of small amounts of aspirin has been seen to be an effective medical intervention. The side-effect of this is that the ability of the blood in general to clot is reduced, and excessive bleeding may result from the use of aspirin.

Central and peripheral activities The analgesic and antipyretic effects of aspirin are CNS effects, whereas the anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic effects occur in the periphery.

Separately labelled acetyl and salicylic moieties of aspirin build up in different parts of the body. The acetyl group is a strong prostaglandin inhibitor and acts peripherally, while salicylic acid, a weak prostaglandin inhibitor, is able to cross the blood-brain barrier and act centrally in the spinal cord.

so the answer is either 1 or3 so help me out here


help me out here fellows its 1 or 3??

mental nerve

it is inferior alveolar nerve has 10-15% positive aspiration , next to that is psa with 3.1% positive aspiration /
 
help me out here fellows its 1 or 3??

asprin stops pain by
1)stoping the upward transduction of pain signal in the spinal cord
2)syopping the signal transduction in the cortex
3)interfering with the signal trasnduction in the cns
4)stopping local signal transduction and production

so 1 or 3????

which of the following describes the character of dentinal tubules at the pulpal end as compared to the enamel end

more per unit surface area and more wider in diameter ans
less per unit surface area and more wider in diameter
more per unit surface area and smaller in diameter
less per uint surface area and smaller in diameter

the number perunit area and the diameter increases towards the pulp .the pulpal surface area is much smaller then the surface at the dej .thus tubules converge towards pulp.the deposition of peritubular dentin is more near the dej thus narrowing the diameter .
 
38. The coefficient of thermal expansion of composite resins is
A. greater than that of enamel...correct
B. the same as that of enamel.
C. less than that of enamel.
D. the same as that of amalgam.
E. the same as that of glass ionomer cement.

39. Which of the following impression materials is the most dimensionally stable?

Contraindications to Nitrous Oxide

N2O should not be used for patients with bowel obstruction, pneumothorax, middle ear and sinus disease, and following cerebral air-contrast studies. Many anaesthetists feel that use of N2O should be restricted during the first two trimesters of pregnancy because of its effects on DNA production and the experimental and epidemiological evidence that N2O causes undesirable reproductive outcomes. Since N2O affects white blood cell production and function, it has been recommended that N2O not be administered to immunosuppressed patients or to patients requiring multiple general anaesthetics.

An enamel pearl is a condition of teeth where enamel is found on locations where enamel is not supposed to be, such as on a root surface. They are found usually in the area between roots, which is called a furcation, of molars. Enamel pearls are not common in teeth with a single root.

Contraindications to Nitrous Oxide

N2O should not be used for patients with bowel obstruction, pneumothorax, middle ear and sinus disease, and following cerebral air-contrast studies. Many anaesthetists feel that use of N2O should be restricted during the first two trimesters of pregnancy because of its effects on DNA production and the experimental and epidemiological evidence that N2O causes undesirable reproductive outcomes. Since N2O affects white blood cell production and function, it has been recommended that N2O not be administered to immunosuppressed patients or to patients requiring multiple general anaesthetics.nitrous oxide is not a barbiturate

c. distal shoe-----For unilateral loss of Primary second molars
d. Nance appliance

A. is wrong.... how can you hold the lingual bar? Permanent first molars are not erupted yet?..and the most posterior teeth are primary first molar. I think the answer left to be Distal shoe or if bilateral, it can used two distal shoe or removable functional space maintainer.
 
machine porion ,

is the point between midway between the highest point of the superior margin of the right and left rods of the cephalostat.these apear as 2 radiographic circles on the radiograph .
 
50 what is the definition of total anterior facial height on a cephalograph
a. nasion-menton
b. ANS-menton
c. A-menton
d. A-B

B. is the answer ANS-Me it means total height of max and mand bones
 
LKY...you are absolutely right..My bad!

1)When primary mandibular right first and second molars are lost in an 8-year-old patient, space is best maintained by constructing and placing

multiple space maintainers.
bands on the remaining teeth.
a functional removable appliance.
a bilateral nonfunctional space maintainer

2)The major criterion to differentiate between a true Class III and a pseudo-Class III malocclusion is the

existence of a forward shift of the mandible during closure.
occlusal relationship between maxillary and mandibular first molars.
presence of a bilateral crossbite.
degree of anterior crossbite

1. is bilateral nonfunctional SM

2. exitence of a forward shift during mand cosure
