Materials that cut or grind a surface leaving grooves and a rough surface In powder or paste form Abrasives
Process of using fine abrasives to produce a smooth, glossy surface Polishing
Rate of abrasion increased accordingly Increases heat production Increasing the speed of the hand piece
The firmer the pressure, the more abrasive Frictional heat increases Pressure control
More material, the faster the abrasive works Amount of abrasive material
The larger and harder the particles, the faster the abrasion Rate of heat production increases Type of abrasive
The dryer the abrasive the more abrasive they are Dry abrasive
Using a medium size grit abrasive followed by a fine polishing paste Best abrasive
Sharp-edged particles are more abrasive than dull, round particles Particle shape
Harder the particle = abrade faster Must be harder than the surface being polished Particle hardness
Resistance of particles to break up the polish; therefore, less materials is used Particle strength
Larger the particle = more abrasive Particle size
Fine- scratches on tooth surface and smooth surface Medium- removes stains effectively and quickly Coarse- removes stains but leaves tooth surfaces rough which makes stains form faster Grit Size
hybrid fillings will either have alumoxidde or superfine silex
porcelain restorations polish zirconium silicate
