Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
7. Definition of Ceramics
• Compounds of one or more metals with a non-
metallic element, usually oxygen, they are formed
of chemically and biochemically stable substances
that are strong, hard, brittle and inherent non
conductors of thermal and electrical energy.
• In an inorganic compound with a non-metallic
properties consisting oxygen and one or more
metallic or semi metallic elements that is
formulated to produce whole or a part of ceramic
based dental prosthesis.www.indiandentalacademy.com
8. Composition of Dental Porcelain
• Feldspar: It is a precursor of common clay.
• Natural feldspar is a mixture of albite
(Na2Al2Si6O16) and ortho clayse microcline
(K2Al2Si6O16) with three crystalline cords.
• It is a crystalline and opaque with an indefinite
color between gray and pink.
• Chemically it is designated as potassium
aluminium silicate.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. • On heating it fuses at an about 1290°C.
• Potassium feldspar and sodium feldspar are
naturally occurring materials composed of Potash
(KO2), Soda (Na2O), Alumina (Al2O3) and Silica
(SiO2)
• Potash feldspar is used in most dental porcelains
due to its increased resistance to pyroplastic flow
and increased viscosity.
• Potassium feldspar is mixed with various metal
oxides and fired at high temperatures, it can form
a leucite and a glass phase that will soften and
flow slightly.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Silica
• Pure quartz crystals (SiO2) are used in dental
porcelain as strengthener of 13-14%.
• Silica can exist in 4 different forms.
- Crystalline quartz
- Crystalline trydynite.
- Crystalline crystobalite.
- Non crystalline fuse silica.
• It prevents the crown from slumping during the
liquid phase.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. • Johns (1970) determined the strength of
porcelain bodies containing 10% by weight
of quartz and found a marked reduction in
the flexural strength of the fired bodies.
• He suggested that the high coefficient of
thermal expansion and inversion of quartz
crystals were the determining factors in the
lower strengths observed.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. Kaolin
• It serves as a binder and is included in small
concentration of 4-5%.
• It gives a property of opaqueness.
• When mixed with water it forms a sticky mass
alloying unfired porcelain to be easily worked and
moulded.
• When subjected to high heat during firing it
adheres to the frameworks of quartz particles and
shrinks considerably.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13. Colour Pigments
• The colour pigments are added to the
porcelain mixture are called ‘color frits’
• To produce lifelike dentin and enamel
colors and help the finished restoration to
resemble the natural teeth color.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
14. Colour pigments used in dental
porcelain
• Titanium oxide – Yellow-brown shade.
• Indium – Yellow/Ivory.
• Iron oxide & Nickel oxide – Brown
• Copper / Chromium oxide – Green
• Chromium-tin / chromium-alumina – Pink
• Iron oxide / Platinum – Grey.
• Manganese oxide – Lavender.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. Opacifying agents
• Opacifying agents generally consists of metal
oxides 8%-15% and grown to a very fine
particle size (<5µm) to prevent a speckled
appearance in porcelain.
• Commonest oxides used are-
a. Zirconium oxide.
b. Cerium oxide.
c. Titanium oxide.
d. Tin oxide.
e. Zircon oxide. www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. Stains and Color modifiers
• Stains are generally low fusing colored porcelains
used as surface colorants or to provide imitate
markings, enamel check lines, decalcification
spots, fluoresced areas etc.
• Color modifiers are less concentrated than stains
used to obtain gingival affect or high light body
colors and are best used at the same temperature
of dental porcelains.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. Glass modifiers
• Potassium, sodium and calcium oxides are the
most commonly used glass modifiers.
• It acts as a fluxes by interrupting the integrity of
silica tetrahedra network.
• More glass modifiers and thus low firing
temperatures.
• High proportions of glass modifiers tends to
reduce the resistance of the applied glaze.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Glazes and Add-on Porcelain
• The main purpose of glaze is to seal the
open pore in the surface of the fired
porcelain.
• Dental glazes consist of colorless low
fusing porcelains which can be applied to
the surface of fired crown to produce a
glazy surface.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. • Glazing can be two types:
1. Self glazing (Autoglazing).
In self glazing procedure an external glaze
layer is not applied but the completed
restoration itself is subjected to glazing
2. Add on glazing
In add on glazing an external glaze layer is
applied on the surface.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. Other additions in dental
porcelain
• Boric oxide (B2O3): It serves as a glass
modifiers as well as glass former.
• Alumina (Al2O3).
• Magnesium oxide (MgO).
• Lithium oxide (Li2O): May be added as
additional fluxing agent.
• Phosphorous pentoxide (P2O5): added to
induce opalescence.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. Properties of Porcelain
• Compressive strength – 50,000psi
• Tensile strength – 5,000 psi
• Shear strength – 16,000 psi
• Elastic modulus – 10x106 psi
• Knoop hardness no. – 460
• Linear coefficient of TE – 12x10-6/°C
• Specific gravity - 2.2-2.3
• Thermal conductivity – 0.0050°C/cm
• Linear shrinkage - High fusing – 11.5%
- Low fusing – 14.0%
• Refractive index – 1.52 – 1.54
www.indiandentalacademy.com
23. Recent Advances
All Ceramic restorations :
These newer all ceramic restorations have lower
incidence of clinical fractures to three important
reasons
1. Made of stronger materials and include better
fabrication techniques.
2. They can be etched and bonded t o the underlying
tooth structure with new dental adhesives
3. Greater tooth reduction that provides lab technicians
with enough room to create thicker and stronger
restoration
www.indiandentalacademy.com
27. Conventional powder slurry ceramics
• These ceramic products are supplied as powders to
which the technician adds water to produce slurry,
which is built up on a die material to form the
contours of the restorations.
• The powder are available in variety of shades and
translucencies, also with stains and glazes.
optec HSP :
Developed by Jeneric Inc / USA sometimes before
it was established in the Germany market by
Keppeler and Whor.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Optec ceramic is a feldspathic composition glass filled
with crystalline leucite (potassium aluminum silicate )
The leucite concentration in optec was 50.6% > IPS
impress ceramic (23.6% / wt.% or 41.3 wt.%)
This ceramic has high level of leucite hence got a greater
strength than traditional feldspathic porcelain: Leucite is
dispersed in a glassy matrix.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. Leucite and glass fuses together during
firing at a temperature of 1020 C .
Increased wear of natural tooth i.e., seen
because of increased leucite content (high
abrasive property)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
31. Advantages
More translucent than alumina core crowns
Good flexural strength – 146 mpa.
Does not require special processing
equipment.
Lack of metal or opaque sub-structure
Can be etched to allow optimum bonding to
Enamel or Dentine
Restorations fit accurately
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. Disadvantages
Increased wear of opposing teeth
Potential marginal inaccuracy caused
by porcelain sintering shrinkage
Potential to fracture in posterior teeth
Require special die material
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. Duceram LFC
Hydrothermal low fusing ceramic
It is composed of an amorphous glass
containing hydroxyl ions.
These hydroxyl ions allow a greater flexural
strength due to ion exchange mechanism,and
also promote healing of surface micro cracks.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
35. The restoration made in two layers– the
base layer is Duceram metal ceramic (a
leucite containing porcelain)wich is placed
on refractory die using powder slurry
technique and backed at 930 deg.C.
Second layer is applied over balsal layer
using same tech. and baked at 660 deg. C.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
38. Advantages
Good flexural strength – 110 mpa.
Greater density
Greater fracture resistance
Decreased abrasion of natural tooth
Disadvantages
Need a special die material
www.indiandentalacademy.com
39. Castable Ceramics
This product is supplied as solid ceramic ingots.
These ceramic are used to fabricate cores and
full contour restorations using the lost wax and
centrifugal casting tech.
Generally one shade of material is available
which is covered by the conventional
feldspathic porcelain or it can be stained to
obtain proper shading characterization of the
final restoration.
eg: Dicor (Dentsply)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40. Dicor
• The use of glass ceramics in dentistry was first
proposed by Macculloch in 1968.
• The first description of Dicor Castable ceramic was
given by Adari & Grossman in 1984 and was
marketed by Dentsply Int
• This is a poly-crystalline glass ceramic material,which
is casted in a similar manner to alloy castings.
• Once the glass crown is cast(at about 1350 deg. C) it is
then heat treated at 1075 deg. C for 10 hrs.this heat
treatment is known as “Ceramming”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
41. • This causes partial crystallisation of tetrasilicic
mica crystals to produce a glass ceramic
material.
• These crystals function in two ways –
– A) creating a relatively opaque material out of the
initially transparent glass crown
– B) they significantly increase the fracture resistance
and strength of the ceramic
www.indiandentalacademy.com
43. Dicor plus:
It is a shaded feldspathic porcelain veneer
applied to the Dicor substrate for
fabrication of Willi’s glass crowns (crown
of venerred Dicor ceramic)
marginal openings of 30-60m compared
to those of metal ceramic crowns
Restoration is etched with 10%
ammonium-bifluoride
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Advantages
Good flexural strength (152 mpa.)
Good fracture resistance.
Less abrasion of natural tooth
Can be etched to bond to natural tooth.
Easy adjustments.
Inherent resistance to plaque accumulation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. •Disadvantages
• Special investment & casting equipment is
recquired
•Uses
Inlays, Onlays
Full contour restorations or cores
www.indiandentalacademy.com
46. Pressable Ceramics
First described by Wohlwend et.al. in 1989
Commercially available as IPS Empress and Optec
OPC
The ceramic is available in the form of ingotes and is
primarily a Precerammed glass reinforced with Leucite
that prevents crack propagation wioth out significantly
diminishing its translucency
www.indiandentalacademy.com
47. Injection Molded Glass Ceramic
(IPS Empress)
IPS Empress is a precerammed glass Ceramic that is
heated in a cylinder form and injected under pressure
into a mold over 45 min. period .
The Ceramic is primarily a glass filled with crystalline
leucite (23.6%wt .colored & 41.3%wt. opaque)
produce the Ceramic sub-structure.
This crown form can be either stained and glazed or
controlled with an investment having appropriate
expansion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
48. Build up using conventional layering tech.
High concentration of Leucite crystals that
increase the resistance to crack propagation
Advantages
Lack of metal or opaque Ceramic core
Moderate flexural strength
Excellent fit of the restoration
Excellent esthetics
www.indiandentalacademy.com
49. Disadvantages
• Potential to fracture in poterior areas
• Need for special laboratory equipment
(pressing oven & die material )
• Single anterior crowns
• Inlays
• Onlays
• Veneers
Uses
www.indiandentalacademy.com
52. Optec Opc :
Leucite reinforced hot pressed ceramic.
A type of feldspathic porcelain with increased
leucite content
Supplied in the form of ingots. The restoration
is waxed , invested & placed in a specialized
mold with an aluminium plunger & ceramic
ingot is placed under the plunger .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
53. The entire assembly is heated to 1150 dgr c and
plunger is released which presses the molten
ceramic in to the mold .
The pressed ceramic is then baked & the pressed
form can be made to full contour or as a
substrate on which conventional feldspathic
porcelain can be built up .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
57. Empress 2 (E – 2 )
This system consist of 2 components
1. First component is a compressed core material of
lithium – di – silicate glass ceramic & lithium
orthophosphate crystals with a flexural strength of 350
mpa .
The scope of use of empress 2 for small bridges
&posterior teeth has widened compared to emp- 1 due
to its increased flexural strength .
2. The second component is a new layer / laminated
material comprised of a fluoraptite –glass crystals .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
58. A higher volume of crystalline phase result in incresed
strength of IPS empress –2 compared to the original
IPS empress .
The pressed ceramic material is translucent such that
the color of the underlying tooth structure is trnsmitted
through out.
The shade of the prepared tooth is determined with a
specially formulated shade guide ‘
“CHROMOSCOPE”& the restoration can be
completed in one of the 2 ways .
A) surface staining technique
B) layering technique
www.indiandentalacademy.com
59. Surface staining technique :
Used in posterior region for inlays , onlays &few
posterior crowns .
Specifically developed shading porcelain which
is painted on to the base-colored restoration .
firing cycle – 850 dgr c for 2 mins in vacume .
The shaded restoration is tried on the dentin
shaded die .
The shading may require 2-4 firings for the final
intrinsic characterization to be developed.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
60. It was developed by willi geller .
The restoration is not waxed to contour , so that
sufficient space can be provided after ceramic
pressing for the layering translucency &individual
characterization .
If in sufficient space exists a cut back of the ceramic
core is possible.
Layering technique
www.indiandentalacademy.com
61. A specifically developed porcelain with a
lower coefficient of thermal expansion is
used for layering
The incisal and enamel layers are backed
separately on the core before final stain
characterization of finishing
www.indiandentalacademy.com
62. • INFILTRATED CERAMIC
• conventional feldspathic porcelain :
• This system utilized aluminum as the core
material
• This porcelain is supplied as a two –component
system i. e. a powder (aluminum oxide /spinal
)which is fabricated into a substrate and then
infiltrated at high temperature with molten glass
infiltrate .
• The infiltrate ceramic is then veneered using the
technique .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
64. • INCERAM :
• Developed by sadoun (Paris) &sold by vita
company &was presented in 1989 for first
time.
• The powder containing fine –grained particles
of aluminum oxide and magnesium oxide is
mixed with water to form a suspension, known
as a ‘slip’.
• Slip is placed on a gypsum die and baked at
1120 dgr c for 10 hrs to produce opaque porous
core .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
65. • At this stage the material is fragile and must be
handled very carefully .
• Next appropriate shade of glass is applied to the
core and baked again at 1100 dgr c for four hrs .
• During this process the molton glass infiltrates
the porous alumina by capillary action and
increases strength of the core by 20 times .
• Aluminum oxide limits the crack propagation
and glass infiltration reduce porosity .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
67. • This core is then veneered using aluminous
veneering porcelain by convetional powder
slurry tch. To create a restoration with proper
contour .
USES
• single anterior & posterior crowns
• anterior 3- unit bridge
• implant supported bridge
www.indiandentalacademy.com
68. ADVANTAGES
• Lack of metal substrate
• Extremely high flexural strength – 450 mpa
• Strongest of all ceramic dental restoration
• Excellent fit
• DISADVANTAGES :
• Opacity of the material & hence can be used
only as core .
• Special die material &high temp oven is required
• Unstable for conventional acid etching .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
70. TECH CERAM :
• It is developed by a British team (tech ceram
ltd,Shipley , u.k)

system by HENNSON .
• CEREC SYSTEM (siemens) this was first fully
operational system developed by BRAINS .
• Its use was limited to inlays , onlays, &veneers.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
80. ADVANTAGES :
• This system enabled dentist to desing and
fabricate ceramic restorations at chair side in a
single appointment .
• DISADVANTAGES :
• This system allowed restoration to be produced
with wide gaps between the tooth and
restoration interface .this gap allows degrade
easily .hence surface seal or bond was lost .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
81. • A newer CAD – CAM system was introduced
by siemens called the CEREC – E or the
ceramic recotouring system with electric
milling machine .this system produces smaller
marginal gaps

combine the scan head for optical impression
with the reconstruction & fabrication module in a
single mobile work station .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
84. CEREC –1 :
• It is an eletrically driven milling machine with
amore efficient cutting disc .
• Accuracy of cut was improved by finer grit &by
increased rigidity of the disc during cutting due
to increased disc thickness .
• It allowed 3-D shaping of the fitting surface of
the restoration against the cavity floor ,
improving the level of fit &allowing a wider
range of shapes to be accommodated .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
85. • The main limitation was not being able to cut
concave surfaces &also extending veneers in to
areas of missing tooth structure proved
problematic .
• Minimal wear of the opposing tooth.
• Due to its strongly translucent nature of ceramic
a light activated composite material as luting
agent .

101. ADVANTAGES OF
CAD/CAM
• Negligible porosity levels in the CAD/CAM
core ceramics .
• The freedom from making impression .
• Reduced assistant time associated with
impression procedures .
• Need for single patient appointment .
• Good patient acceptance .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
102. DIS-ADVANTAGES
• Need for costly equipment
• Lack of computer control processing
support for occlusal adjustments
• Technique sensitive nature of surface
imaging required for prepared teeth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
103. Procera
• They were produced by noble biocare Goteberg
Sweden and was first described in 1993.
• Original procera system was designed to fabricate
crowns, fixed partial dentures by combining a
titanium substructure with the low fusing
veneering porcelain.
• These all ceramic individual restorations comprise
a densely sintered alumina core.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
104. • A die is first created by a computer controlled
milling process and aluminium oxide powder is
compacted onto the die to form the inner surface of
the coping.
• The outer surface is milled before sintering takes
place. Final creation of anatomic forms and esthetics
is achieved by the buildup of conventional
porcelains.
• Restorations of this system shown to have a precise
fit with marginal openings of less than 70µm and
produces minimal wear of the opposing dentition
provided the material is suitably polished.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
105. PROCERA ALL TITAN
• Its low thermal conductivity, low density,
high strength, biocompatibility make
titanium a desirable restorative material.
• The external contours of the individual
titanium cores for procera all titan bridges
are milled and graphite electrodes create the
fitting surface by a spark erosion process.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
106. • Individual components of the bridges are welded
by laser before the structure is finally veneered
with special porcelain.
• In this way application of CAD-CAM technology,
coupled with traditional spark erosion is set to
enable the production of accurately fitting
titanium-base restoration, while eliminating the
need for costly and technically difficult casting
procedure.

107. New Shrink Free Ceramics
• The shrink free ceramic is used to form a coping on a
epoxy die by a transfer moulding process. This ceramic
was developed in an attempt to overcome the limitations
of platinum foiled matrices when used beneath
aluminous porcelains i.e. improper fit of crown, firing
shrinkage of porcelain.
• The unfired ceramic is composed of a mixture of
alumina magnesia, alumina silicate and glass frit, wax
and silicone resin plasticizer.
• Some of the alumina reacts with the magnesium oxide to
form magnesium aluminate spinal crystals. This is
accomplished by an increase in volume which of cells
selts sintering shrinkage
www.indiandentalacademy.com
108. Disadvantages:
• Improper marginal fit.
• Leaving a marginal gaps of around 84µm.
• To overcome this double sprue technique
was used firing temperature maintained at
128°C.
• Newer shrink free all ceramic.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
109. Hybrid Ceramics
• These ceramics are latest additions to existing ceramic
restorations.
• Estenia (Kurary Dental) is an esthetic resin based
crown and bridge material that provides the advantages
of ceramics (esthetics and durability) and ease of use of
composite materials.
Uses:
- Jacket crowns.
- Inlays.
- Onlays.
- Bridges. www.indiandentalacademy.com
110. Composition
• This ceramic has a resin matrix I.e. strengthened by
loading 0.02 micron superfine microfiller.
• Filler content 92 wt percent loading that cannot be
accomplished by conventional composite materials.
The prepared tooth surface should allow 1.5-2.0mm
space for material.
• The tooth surface is etched with phosphoric acid.
• Then a saline primer is applied on the teeth and air
blown.
• Mix cementing agent Panavia F (increase fillers) and
remove the excess cement.
• Light cure.
• Apply oxyguard wash.www.indiandentalacademy.com
111. Steps for fabricating estenia restoration:
• On a die - apply opaque primer.
- Apply opaquer and light cure.
- Form a body of restoration
and polymerize by light cure.
Following a complete buildup of restoration, heat
cure then finish and polish. Heat curing at 100-
1100°C for 15 minutes.
Properties:
1.Compressive strength – 613 Mpa.
2.Flexural strength – 202 Mpa.
3.Hardness – 200KHN.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
112. ORMOCERS
• Ormocers an acronym for organically modified
ceramics are a new type of materials which
chemically are methacrylate substituted
alkosilanes.
• That is they are organic copolymers the alkylsilyl
groups of the silane allow the formation of an
inorganic Si-O-Si network by hydrolyses and
condensation polymerization reaction to give
cross-linked structures and their properties may be
modified by filler-particle substitution.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
113. • A material is based on this concept has
recently become available (Definite :
Degussa Dental, Hanau, Germany). The
manufacturers claim low shrinkage, high
abrasion resistance, condensability, timeless
aesthetics biocompatibility and protection
against the caries. No long term clinical trial
results are yet available.
