Introduction Dental liner, bases, and bonding systems are in a classification of dental materials that provide additional protection for the health and well-being of a tooth being restored. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Prepared Tooth Structures § The design of the cavity preparation gives strength within the tooth and helps determine how the tooth will hold the restoration in place. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Pulpal Responses Types of stimulus Physical Examples of stimulus Thermal, electrical Mechanical Handpiece, traumatic occlusion Chemical Acid from dental materials Biologic Bacteria from saliva Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Dental Liners § Dental liners provide a thin barrier that protects the pulpal tissue from irritation caused by physical, mechanical, chemical and biologic element. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Calcium Hydroxide § Indications for use • Protects the pulp from chemical irritation by its sealing ability. • Stimulates the production of reparative or secondary dentin. • Compatible with all types of restorative materials. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Calcium Hydroxide-cont’d § Application process • Placed only on dentin. • Placed directly over

Varnishes § Indications for use* • Seal the dentinal tubules. • Reduce leakage around a restoration. • Act as a barrier to protect the tooth from highly acidic cements such as zinc phosphate. * This material is contraindicated in its use under composite resins and glass ionomer restorations. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Varnishes-cont’d § Application process • Applied with either a small disposable applicator or a cotton pellet. • Thin coating of the varnish on the walls, floor, and margin of the cavity preparation. • Apply a second coat. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Dentin Sealer § Indications for use • • Treat or prevent hypersensitivity. Used instead of a varnish. Seal the dentinal tubules. Ideal for use under all indirect restorations. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Dentin Sealer-cont’d § Application Process • Material used sparingly. • Do not allow to contact soft tissues (HEMA and glutaraldehyde). • Apply the dentin sealer with the cottontipped applicator. • Apply over all areas of the exposed dentin. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Dental Bases § Dental bases provide pulpal protection. • Protective base: Protect the pulp before the restoration is placed. • Insulating base: Protect the tooth from thermal shock. • Sedative base: Soothe a pulp that has been damaged by decay or irritated by mechanical means.

Types of Base Materials § § Zinc oxide eugenol Zinc phosphate Polycarboxylate Glass ionomer

Dental Bonding § Dental bonding improves retention by creating a micromechanical retention between the

Enamel Bonding § Enamel bonding is placed directly onto the § intact enamel surface. Examples of Enamel Bonding • Sealants • Bonded orthodontic brackets • Resin‑bonded bridges • Bonded veneers Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Dentin Bonding § Dentin bonding is placed on prepared dentin in § order to

Etching Systems § Etching Systems remove the smear layer in § preparation for bonding. Supplied as: • Liquid/Gel • Maleic acid • Phosphoric acid Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Clinical Application of the Etchant and Bonding Systems § Etchant is applied to remove the smear layer. § Plaque or debris is removed before the bonding § § § process. Avoid overdrying etched teeth. Too much primer is better than too little. Bonding solution covers all surfaces. Contamination with saliva requires the entire procedure to be redone. Allow time for bonding material to mature before completing the restoration. Copyright 2003, Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
