Dental cementation is the process of attaching a dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, inlay, or onlay, to a prepared tooth using a dental cement. The cement acts as a adhesive, filling the space between the tooth and the restoration, and bonding them together.
There are several types of dental cements that can be used, including zinc phosphate, glass ionomer, resin modified glass ionomer, and resin cements. Each type of cement has its own unique properties, such as setting time, strength, and wear resistance.
The procedure of cementation typically involves the following steps:
Clean and dry the tooth surface.
Place the restoration on the tooth and ensure proper fit.
Mix the cement according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Apply the cement to the restoration and tooth.
Seat the restoration in place and hold it until the cement sets.
Remove any excess cement.
Use a dental curing light to harden the cement.
Dental cementation is a crucial step in the restoration of a tooth, ensuring a proper fit and retention of the restoration, and contributing to the longevity of the restoration.
