Laboratory 1 Dental material properties Answer the following questions and hand in your report as a group (typed not hand written)
a. Questions: i. Define plastic deformation of a dental material (2 marks) when the stress is sufficient and permanent it will deform the metal.This type of deformation is irreversible. One material with a large plastic deformation range is wet chewing gum, which can be stretched dozens of times its original length. ii. Which material do you predict to be more accurate in terms of detail reproduction if used to take an impression, among the two types of rubber materials shown in the lab (putty or wash rubber materials? (1 mark) Wash rubber Material is predicted to be more accurate for taking an impression. b. Questions: i. What are the four hues present on a shade guide? Mention the actual color.
