Ortho Debonding to prophy jet
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|

| how do light cured impression trays work? | sheet of preformed material is adapted over the cast, trimmed and then put under the light curing unit doesn't generate heat during polymerization |
| how are chemically cured impression trays done? | involved with mixing powder of pre polymerized beads with liquid monomer releases heat during curing process |
| how are chemically activated acrylics different that heat cured? | monomer component contains a chemical activator (amine no heat) |
| where do you place the stops on the custom tray? | 5 mm square on the buccal cusp of first premolar and mesiobuccal cusp of second molar on unprepared teeth |
| when did the NCAA mandate the use of mouth guards for football players? | 1973 |
| what is a mouthgaurd? | a resilient device or appliance placed inside the mouth (or outside) to reduce mouth injuries, particularly to the teeth and surrounding tissue |
| what are the functions of a mouth guard? | protect soft tissue, teeth, supporting structure and mandible from fracture and prevent tempormandibular joint injury |
| what are considerations when picking a mouth guard? | occlusion, dental anatomy, orthodontic status, sport, level of play and equipment |
| what is a stock mouth guard? | not fitted to teeth of alveolus, teeth must be clenched to keep in, hampers speech and breathing, generally not easily comfortably worn |
| what is mouth formed mouth guard? | cost effective but difficult to achieve a good fit, difficult to speak and breathe and adapt orthodontic appliances |
| what is vacuum formed custom mouth guard? | sheet of ethylene vinyl acetate pulled with vacuum over a cast of theme's teeth |
