4. Factors influencing
selection of ideal
restorative material
Factors concerning the
patient
Factors concerning the
available restorative
material
Factors related to the
operator
5. Patient related factors:
1- General conditions of the patients
2- General conditions of the oral cavity
3- Caries risk assessment
4- Occlusal analysis
5- Tooth to be restored
6. 1-General conditions of the patients:
Patient age.
Patients sex
Patients occupation
Physical and mental conditions of the patient
Socioeconomic conditions of the patient
Patients habits
7. 2- General conditions of the oral cavity
Oral hygiene
A- Patients with
good oral hygiene
B- Patients with
poor oral hygiene
8. 3- Caries risk assessment
Dental Caries is a Multi-factorial Disease. The
development of caries is dependent on the interaction of
four primary factors.
Caries risk assessment (CRA) is the process of collecting
data regarding various factors (e.g. bacterial level) and
indicators (e.g. previous caries experience) to predict
caries activity in the immediate future.
Caries risk was assessed to classify patients into low,
medium or high-risk patients
9. Caries will not develop if any of these four primary factors are not
present. Several modifying risk factors and protective factors
influence the dental caries process, primary and secondary.
10. Caries-risk assessment models currently involve a
combination of factors including
Diet ( carbohydrates intake)
fluoride exposure
previous caries experience
salivary factors (e.g. flow rate and buffering capacity)
levels of cariogenic bacteria (i.e. Streptococcus mutans
and Lactobacillus)
socioeconomic characteristics
11. CRA may be valuable in the clinical management
of caries by helping dental clinicians to:
1. Categorize the level of the patient’s risk of developing caries
to control the intensity of treatment rendered.
2. Pinpoint main etiological factors that contribute to the
development of decay and thus determine appropriate form
of therapy.
3. Assist in restorative treatment decisions (e.g. choice of
restorative material).
4. Improve prognosis of planned therapeutic care.
5. Provide information on what additional diagnostic tests and
screening are required.
6. Educate and motivate patients to improve and maintain
optimum oral health.
7. Guide timing of subsequent recall appointments
12. So treatment is important after caries risk assessment as
failure to identify and treat the underlying causative
factors allows the disease to continue. It is based first on
risk assessment and then on modifying the biofilm
ecology to enhance protective factors and minimize
pathologic factors.
caries risk models such as CAMBRA and cariogram
13.
14. This makes the balance between demineralization and
remineralization which is illustrated in terms of pathologic
factors (i.e., those favoring demineralization) and protective
factors (i.e., those favoring remineralization.
15. 4-Occlusal analysis:
Occlusion literally means “closing”;
in dentistry, the term means the
contact of teeth in opposing dental
arches when the jaws are closed
(static occlusal relationships) and
during various jaw movements
(dynamic occlusal relationships).
The results of the occlusal analysis
should be included in the dental
record and considered in the
restorative treatment plan.
16. The confirmative approach
In practice this means that the occlusion of the new
restoration is provided in such a way that the occlusal
contacts of the other teeth remain unaltered (in simple
restorative dentistry)
On the tooth level, ideal occlusion is described as an
occlusal contact that is: in line with the long axis This
means the elimination of incline contacts.
19. This principles is applied in the direct and
indirect restorations:
Examine Design
Restore
cavity
Check
20. The essential difference between a direct and an indirect
restoration is that a laboratory technician is involved:
First, The dentist not only has to examine the occlusion
but the results of that examination have to be accurately
recorded and that record has to be transferred to the
technician. This is the clinician's responsibility.
Secondly, the technician has the responsibility to preserve
the accuracy of that record during the laboratory phase of
treatment
Finally, the clinician has the responsibility to maintain the
patient in the same occlusion, with a temporary restoration
which will maintain the same relationship between the
prepared tooth and the adjacent and opposing teeth
21. There are three ways in which this
anatomical information can be
transferred:
1. Two dimensional bite records: photographs
or occlusal sketch
2. Three dimensional bite records: bite
registration material e.g. wax or by using
impression material
3. A combination of both
22. Points also to be checked :
plunger cusps
tilted teeth
Edge to edge
Deep bite
Over jet
Overbite
Anterior guidance
24. 4-Tooth to be restored:
A- Position of the tooth
B-Teeth with slight mobility
C-Form of the tooth
D- Condition of the tooth surface
C- Size and condition of the remaining coronal
portion
25. A- Position of the tooth:
Anterior teeth should be restored with esthetic tooth
colored restorations
Teeth which appears during smiling should be restored
also with esthetic tooth colored restorations
Teeth which act as abutment for fixed bridges can be
restored with amalgam, composite or RMGI restorations
Wisdom teeth are difficult to be isolated with rubber dam
so it is preferred to restore them with zinc free amalgam or
indirect restorations e.g. inlays or onlays
26. B- Teeth with slight mobility:
According to the grade of mobility, decision will be
made, after knowing the cause of this mobility and
eliminate it, and if it is primary or secondary occlusal
trauma and adjusting it
27. C- Form of the tooth:
if the tooth shape is normal so suitable restorative
material according to the design
but if there is different tooth form:
Hutchinson teeth: full coverage esthetic restorations
Mulberry molars: should be restored with full coverage
metallic or ceramic crowns
28. Peg shaped lateral: restore it to simulate normal lateral
tooth with esthetic restoration
29. D- Condition of the tooth surface :
Hypoplasia:
which is a defect in in the matrix formation, in the form of
pits grooves, and lines in the whole enamel surface or in
certain areas. Possible reduction of the enamel thickness.
depends on the location and severity of the condition.
For mild cases it can be treated with composite restoration
of the pitted surfaces, and for moderate to sever cases it
will be treated with laminates or full coverage according
to the case.
30.
31. Hypocalcification:
which is a defective mineralization
of enamel matrix, in the form of
soft enamel of yellow - brownish
color, it also will be treated
according to the severity of the
case,
if it is severe case in which enamel
is chipped of it should be covered
with strong restoration to protect it
e.g. full coverages
32. E- Size and condition of the remaining
coronal portion:
If the remaining coronal portion is badly destructed so
extra means of retention or indirect restorations could be
used.
33. It is a dental restorative material used to restore function,
integrity and morphology of missing or damaged tooth
structure.
34. 1- Stop further progress of present lesions.
2- Restore normal function.
3- Restore any speech defects.
4- Restore normal esthetics.
5-Sustain the normal physiologic occlusal load
without fracture.
6- Restore and maintain integrity of dental arch
7- Protect and maintain pulp vitality.
8-Maintain a constant relationship with the
surrounding hard tooth structure.
35. There is no ideal available
restorative material, so we have to
be more conservative with selection
of most suitable material for each
particular case according to material
properties.
38. Indications:
Occlusal, buccal and lingual pit and fissure cavities.
Gingival third cavities on bicuspids and cuspids.

43. It is prepared by placing 2 to 3 mm deep holes
with condensation of soft restoration.
It is recommended in weak gingival area but
associated with greater tooth structure removal.
45. Silver alloy particles undergo self- welding after using
fluroboric acid to keep surface alloy particles clean and
can be condensed as direct gold restoration.
46. In bonded amalgam technique, a dentin bonding
system is used along with a viscous resin liner
which mixes with the amalgam
forms a micro-mechanical union to increase
amalgam`s retention to tooth structure.
This is obtained by adding 4- META with its
hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.

protect weakened
tooth structure
66. GOLD
It is a noble ductile heavy metal.
It provides strength and resistance to tarnish and corrosion.
Insoluble except in a combination of nitric and hydrochloric
acids.
It impairs the yellowish color of the alloy.
Four types are available according to hardness
Type I
Soft
Type II
Medium
Type III
Hard
Type IV
Extra Hard
67. Type I (Soft) used for small inlays & in restoration of non
stress areas.
Type II (Medium) used for large inlays , onlays &suitable
for restorations in stress bearing areas as Class I, II
Type III (Hard) used for crown and bridge work and is
also suitable for onlays & posts
Type IV (Extra-hard) Its use is limited to the construction of
partial denture frameworks.
(The content of both gold and copper are the most
effective in this classification)

CONTRA -INDICATIONS
72. CONTRA -INDICATIONS
1. Bad oral hygiene and high caries susceptibility since this
will enhance the failure of cement line and increase its solubility
with high risk of caries recurrence.
2. The presence of an opposing amalgam restoration
because this may elicit a galvanic cell with pain and/or enhanced
corrosion activity.
3. Where esthetics is a prime requisite, cast gold should not
be used since it attracts attention of the observer.
4. Where other permanent direct restoration is indicated
for tooth conservation.
73.
74.
75. Base metals
generally have
Low density
Not applicable
to be casted in
thin sections
High rigidity
Not burnishable
into thin
margins
So need modifications
in cavity design
(mainly finishing cavo-
surface margin into
butt joint)
Lower cost
compared to noble
metals like cast gold
76. Base Metal Casting Alloys
Titanium &
Titanium alloys
Cobalt-
Chromium alloys
Nickel-
Chromium
alloys
Hardness :3 times
more than that of
type IV gold alloys
The alloy is difficult
to be finished and
polished
Could cause wear of
the opposing natural
teeth
Presence of nickel
instead of cobalt
renders the alloy:
Less hard
Owns strength
properties similar to
type III gold alloys
Mechanical properties
of pure TI similar to
gold type III & IV
While TI alloy similar
to Cobalt-Chromium
& Nickel-Chromium
78. Titanium & Titanium alloys
Difficult to be casted because of their low density
,high fusion temperature and high reactivity with
the surrounding environment.
So nowadays Blocks of Ti or Ti-alloys
could be milled into inlays or crowns using the
CAD-CAM or copy milling technologies.

84. The advantages of composite over
ceramics inlays & onlays are:
1. Less brittle restoration.
2. Transmit lower stresses to underlying tooth structure,
due to lower rigidity of the material.
3. Can be easily adjusted, contoured and repaired
intraorally after cementation.
4. Less expensive.
5. Less abrasion to the opposing teeth. The wear rate of
second-generation of composites is nearly like the
natural enamel.
6. More conservative preparation, as ceramics need more
bulk owing to its brittleness.
7. Easily removed, if replacement is necessary.
86. The advantages of ceramic over
composite inlays & onlays are:
1. Adhesion of resin cement is more favorable with
ceramics than composite restorations.
2. Excellent shades match with surrounding natural tooth
structure.
3. Offering superior mechanical & physical properties.
4. Highly biocompatible to the gingiva.
92. Composite vs ceramic veneers
