Which of the following best characterizes dentin conditioning (etching) with
composite?
1. it is an optional step for dental adhesion
2. improves mechanical retention by eliminating or modifying the smear layer
3. lowers the bond strength
4. creates a chemical bone

2. improves mechanical retention by eliminating or modifying the smear
layer
The result of moisture contamination when condensing with zinc-containing amalgam
is:
1. increased chance of galvanism
2. a drier mix
,3. increased compressive strength
4. excessive delayed expansion
Give this one a try later!
4. excessive delayed expansion

2. it removes the outer enamel layer
3. it exposes fewer enamel rods which can be etched
4. may tend to weaken remaining tooth structure
