A provisional or temporary restoration is necessary when using indirect systems that require two appointments. it is important that the patient be comfortable and the tooth be protected and stabilized with an adequate temporary restoration. The temporary restoration should satisfy the following requirements: it should -
When properly made, the custom temporary restoration can satisfy these requirements and is the preferred temporary restoration.
Temporaries can be fabricated intraorally directly on the prepared teeth (direct technique) or outside of the mouth using a post-operative cast of the prepared teeth (indirect technique).
The indirect technique is not as popular as the direct technique because of the increased number of steps and complexity ; however, it is useful when making temporaries that might become “locked on” (e.g., intracoronal inlays) when using the direct technique
An inlay may cap none, or may cap all but one cusp.

Inlays may be used as single-tooth restorations for proximo-occlusal or gingival lesions with minimal to moderate extensions

An inlay may be defined as a restoration which has been constructed out of mouth from gold, porcelain, or other material & then cemented into the prepared cavity of a tooth.

The cast metal restoration is versatile and is especially applicable to Class II onlay preparations. The process has many steps, involves many dental materials, and requires meticulous attention to prepration.
Tooth treatment planned to be restored with an intracoronal restoration, but the decay or fracture is so extensive that a direct restoration, such as amalgam or composite, would not be able to sustain or bear forces.
Additionally, when decay or fracture incorporate areas of cusp or remaining tooth structure that undermines perimeter walls of a tooth, an onlay might be indicated.

Introduction
Teeth do not possess the regenerative ability found in most other tissues. Therefore, once the enamel or dentine is lost as a result of caries, trauma, or wear, restorative materials must be used to re-establish the form and function. Teeth require preparation to receive restorations and these preparations must be based on fundamental principles from which basic criteria can be developed to help predict the success of the prosthodontic treatment.

Conclusion
Each tooth preparation must be measured by clearly defined criteria that can be used to identify and correct problems. It is important to understand the pertinent theories underlying each step is crucial. Successful preparation can be obtained most easily by systematically following the steps which will ensure optimal quality of final restoration, which will serve the patient for a long time.

Investment materials developed in the first half of the twentieth century, to give clinically acceptable dental castings. But
Wrongly, many assume that dental casting investment materials have reached a level of development that makes them completely fit for purpose and that the technology is stable.
This is not the case. Casting titanium and it’s requirement for increased precision have given new challenges
Silica exists in 22 different condensed phases. Five of these are amorphous, and 17 are crystalline; the latter are the polymorphs of silica.
Of this group, only one phase, low-temperature quartz, is thermodynamically stable at normal temperature and pressure. Two more, tridymite and low-temperature cristobalite, exist under normal atmospheric conditions as metastable (but actually long-lived) phases
In the investment powder, the binder is calcium sulfate hemihydrate. When the investment sets, the silica is unaffected; the hemihydrate binder combines with water to form dihydrate (gypsum).The set investment consists of fine particles of silica embedded in gypsum crystals.
When this material is heated to the temperatures required for complete dehydration and sufficiently high to ensure complete castings, it shrinks
considerably and occasionally fractures.
The thermal expansion curves of the three common forms of gypsum products are shown in Figure. All forms shrink considerably after dehydration between 200" C and 400" C . A slight expansion takes place between 400" C and approximately 700, and a large contraction then occurs This shrinkage is most likely caused by decomposition and the release of sulfur gases, such as sulfur dioxide. This decomposition not only causes shrinkage but also contaminates the castings with the sulfides of the non-noble alloying elements, such as silver and copper.
Thus it is imperative that gypsum investments not be heated above 700" C (1292" F). However, for gypsum products containing carbon, the maximum temperature should be 650" C (1202" F). In this way, proper fit and uncontaminated alloys are obtained.

To sum up, the risk/benefit ratio should be always weighed before prescribing antibiotics.
Appropriately selected patients will benefit from systemically administered antibiotics.
A restrictive and conservative use of antibiotics is highly recommended in endodontic practice, but indiscriminate use is contrary to sound clinical practice
Future generations will thank us for today’s conscientious and judicious use of antibiotics

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

material into undercuts on the prepared tooth or the
adjacent teeth.
2. Avoids placing polymerizing temporary material directly on
freshly prepared dentin and investing soft tissue, reducing
potential irritation to these tissues.
3. The post-operative cast made in the indirect technique affords an opportunity to
evaluate the preparation & serves as an excellent guide when trimming and
contouring the temporary restoration.
4. Fabrication of the temporary restoration can be delegated to a well-trained dental
auxiliary.

2) It is much faster than the indirect technique.
(1) There is a chance of locking hardened temporary materials into small undercuts on the
prepared tooth and the adjacent teeth,
(2) The marginal fit may be slightly inferior to the indirect technique,
(3) It is more difficult to contour the temporary restoration without the guidelines offered
by the post-operative cast.

(Glass ionomer, zinc polycarboxylate, & resin cements)
Best To Remove It After It Sets
1) The surrounding surfaces can be coated with a separating medium.
2) Removal of excess cement as soon as the seating is completed
Some instructions from the manufacturer for GIG and dual-cure resin cements indicate that
once the prosthesis is seated, the cement should be allowed to set for 1.5 to 3 min after the
completion of cement mixing, but before the excess cement is removed.
Rationale is that the cement becomes more viscous, but not rigid during this period In this
consistency, removal of the excess cement is facilitated 61

63. 1. The film thickness of cement beneath the prosthesis should be thin
2. The cement should have high strength values
3. The dimensional changes occurring in the cement during setting should minimize
4. A cement with the potential to chemically bond to teeth and prosthesis surfaces
or to enhance bonding of restorative material to tooth structure should be used.
Cement layer is the weakest link of the entire assembly, higher-strength luting agents
should be chosen to enhance retention and prevent prosthesis dislodgment by providing a
firm support base against applied forces.
Factors can influence the retention of these fixed prostheses
When mechanical undercuts are the principal mechanism of retention, failure tends to
occur along the interfaces.
When chemical bonding is involved, the failure often occurs cohesively through the cement
itself.
The prosthesis becomes dislodged only when the luting cement fractures or dissolves. 64
64. Film Thickness
Freshly mixed cement is placed between two optically flat surfaces and a 150 Newton (N)
vertical load is applied 10 sec before the end of the measured working time.
When at least 10 min have elapsed after application of the load, the thickness of the film
between the two flat surfaces is measured
Size of particles
P/L ratio
This film thickness varies with –
(1) The amount of force applied during seating of a prosthesis,
(2) The manner- in which the force is applied to the prosthesis during seating,
(3) The configuration of the prosthesis relative to its hindering or facilitating the flow of
cement,
(4) The fit of the prosthesis on the prepared tooth.
The film thickness values reported in the literature typically range between 25 and 150 um
Luting applications - 25 um

67. Try-in and Bonding
Try-in and bonding of tooth-colored inlays or onlays are more demanding than those for
cast gold restorations -
The relatively fragile nature of some ceramic materials
The requirement of near-perfect moisture control
The use of resin cements.
Occlusal evaluation and adjustment generally are delayed until after the restoration is
bonded, to avoid fracture of the ceramic material

74. Much care must be exercised to avoid damaging the gingiva or the root surfaces when using
such instruments interproximally.
With care and appropriate instrumentation, ceramic restorations can be polished to a surface
as smooth as glazed porcelain using the abrasive sequence ----->
Instrumentation for Finishing and Polishing Ceramic Restorations
Sequence Instruments
1 Medium-grit to fine-grit diamond rotary instrument
2 30-fluted carbide burs
3 Sequence of rubber, abrasive-impregnated porcelain polishing

In selected cases, the occlusion can be adjusted on the opposing dentition. This is feasible
only if –
Adjustment is done to correct the occlusal plane of opposing teeth
To reduce a pronounced cusp present on the tooth opposing the restoration to avoid occlusal
trauma.

77. Indirect restoration offer excellent restorations that may be under-used in dentistry.
The technique requires multiple patient visits and excellent laboratory support, but
the resulting restorations are durable and long lasting.
Advances in ceramic, polymer, and adhesive technologies have resulted in the
development of a variety of tooth-colored indirect restorations & it offer an excellent
alternative to direct composite restorations, especially for large restorations, and are
more conservative than full-coverage restorations.
Because the clinical procedures are relatively technique-sensitive, however, proper
case selection, operator skill, and attention to detail are crucial to success.
