Dental Materials: What Goes Where? Class V Restorations
Dental Update
|January 12, 2016
Summary
Resin-modified glass ionomers offer the best survival rates for Class V restorations. Flowable composites may provide superior aesthetics for these common cervical lesion treatments.
Area of Science:
- Restorative Dentistry
- Biomaterials Science
Background:
- Class V restorations are frequently used to treat cervical lesions.
- Understanding lesion pathogenesis, including occlusal factors, is crucial for restoration longevity.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the pathogenesis of cervical lesions.
- To review literature for optimal material selection for Class V restorations.
- To provide clinical advice on achieving long-lasting Class V restorations.
Main Methods:
- Literature review focusing on Class V restoration longevity.
- Evaluation of etiological factors, particularly occlusal influences on cervical lesions.
Main Results:
- Resin-modified glass ionomers demonstrate optimal survival rates for Class V restorations.
- Flowable composite materials may offer enhanced aesthetic outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Material choice impacts Class V restoration longevity and aesthetics.
- Resin-modified glass ionomers are recommended for durability, while flowable composites may be preferred for appearance.

Veneer
472
Veneer refers to a thin sheet of wood, typically produced to a thickness of about one-eighth of an inch or less. This material is crafted through various methods, the most common being rotary cutting. In this process, a log is mounted into a large lathe and spun against a knife edge, peeling off a continuous strip of wood as the knife penetrates deeper into the rotating log, creating a rotary-cut veneer.
Other veneering techniques include plain-slicing, quarter-slicing, and rift-slicing. These...

Restorative Care
2.5K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

Assessment of the Mouth
1.5K
A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.

Brick Classifications
472
Bricks, a fundamental component of construction, are categorized based on their application and structural characteristics into several types. These include facing bricks, building bricks, hollow bricks, paving bricks, and firebricks. Facing bricks, also referred to as face bricks, are primarily used for both structural support and visual appeal, making their appearance a crucial aspect. In contrast, building bricks are typically used in concealed sections of a structure, such as behind the...
