Even with my limited clinical experience, I consider amalgam buildups to be very inefficient...considering it takes an extra appointment to prep the tooth. Also, retention of the amalgam buildup will often be a major issue...causing us to destroy further tooth structure to try and create some retention.

Very good paper, I had no idea that a composite buildup actually works better in the posterior than an amalgam buildup. Now I know and knowing is half the battle.

Great paper. I haven't done a build-up yet, but I am glad I have the oppurtunity to see your presentation before I do have to do one.
Brian Vieregge <vieregbl@umn.edu>

It was a very well written paper. My knowledge fell short in this area and I was never sure what material to use and how to use it confidently. Your paper shed light on it for me and I am looking forward to your presentation.

- Thursday, November 07, 2002 at 06:52:14 (CST)
Excellent paper! I enjoyed reading about build-up material options because I just treatment planned my first build up yesterday. Your information is logically ordered and clinically revelent.
Jim Healy <heal0052@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, November 07, 2002 at 06:41:44 (CST)
Well done... I will now feel knowledgable about the procedure I'm doing the next time I do a build-up.

I am looking forward to hearing about the build-up options and if what we are being directed to do in the clinic follows the research, as I have had done a couple of amalgam build-ups and a couple of glass ionomer (Fuji II) build-ups.
Stephen Sawyer <sawy0071@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 23:37:24 (CST)
I hope your presentation brings to light what structural modifications need to be made in order to hold a large amalgam buildup.

- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 23:00:56 (CST)
Great paper guys. It seems as though we haven't been exposed to much about build-up materials. So far, I have basically picked a build-up material based on what the instructor wanted me to use. I am looking forward to hearing more tomorrow.
Joshua Campbell <camp0385@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 22:47:00 (CST)
After reading this paper I feel like I didn't give a few of my patients the best quality option for a build-up material. I was told a few times to use Fugi glass ionomer and now I feel I should have used composite instead. This is good to know for future use.
Ryan Francis <fran0540>

Good paper. I have to do a buildup soon, it will be very helpful to get this information now. Not much at all was said about buildups in previous classes, a problem that the faculty should think about.
Patrick J Capp <capp0021@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 22:15:39 (CST)
Excellent job with the paper. This is great info on build up materials and techninques. I will be doing some build ups soon and would like to learn about them, since we never really got any instruction on build ups in preclinic. Nice job!
Aaron Johnson <john3097@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 22:12:19 (CST)
I appreciated your paper. There is a lot of good information covered that will aid in my build-up treatment plan for a patient I am currently seeing. I look forward to your presentation.
kellee kattleman <katt0013@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 22:00:31 (CST)
This paper comes at a good time. I haven't planned any build-ups yet, but I have to Tx plan a patient next week who may need one. This was a nice review of the materials options out there.
Eric Knaff <knaf0006@tc.umn.edu>

Good paper. I look forward to hearing about threaded posts and the ferrule effect. This is an area in which I could use a quick refresher.
Bryan Johnson <john2819@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 20:31:18 (CST)
Your paper was a great summary of options and will serve as a handy guide in clinic as we make decisions regarding each patient's particular circumstances and needs. One question I have regarding build-ups is how thin can we allow remaining tooth structure to become surrounding a build-up material before we are jeopardizing the longevity of the built-up full coverage preparation?
Chris Wangen <wang0141@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 20:07:08 (CST)
Good paper guys. Build-ups are a topic that was not taught to us very well. I am looking forward to seeing some clinical examples (if possible) of when or when not to do a build-up.
Erick Hallie <ehallie@hotmail.com>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 20:06:04 (CST)
Great paper group #6. Your summary of the literature has given me a lot of information on many different materials used as the foundation for an indirect restoration.
Jon Matthes <matt0428@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 19:00:46 (CST)
Excellent paper group 6! Great review. I would like to learn more about fiber reinforcememt posts - it seems to be a hot topic.
Jessica Inglis <ingl0011@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 18:16:18 (CST)
Great paper group 6! I look forward to your presentation and hearing more about build-ups. I wish we would have learned more about these before we started clinic and the pros/cons of the different materials to use. I was interested to hear what you said about glass ionomer since it seems to be a favorite with the pros faculty!
Kara Lobaugh <loba0008@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 18:12:42 (CST)
It was very interesting to read up on build-up materials. Once again, I would have liked to have been exposed to more of this material before I encountered it in the clinic. I find it interesting that a certain number of operative faculty have claimed that they have used build-ups very rarely...very interesting!
ryan tietz <tiet0020@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 16:53:41 (CST)
Threaded posts offer the most retention, but what if you need to remove them to replace a crown? Do the threads make removal difficult or ultimately detremental to the tooth?
Sarah Como <scomo@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 14:51:10 (CST)
Good paper...it is nice to have some instruction on build-up materials and when/where they should be used.
Heidi Nichols-Johnson <nichols_hi_d@hotmail.com>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 14:49:27 (CST)
The information in this paper is going to be an extremely helpful reference in clinic. I realize this isn't directly related to your topic, but have you found information on when exactly it is best to remove an old restoration before you do a build-up and when you should leave it? I have had so many different opinions from instructors on that issue!
Polly LoCascio <loca0008@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 06, 2002 at 11:41:21 (CST)
Is it better to use composite as opposed to amalgam in situations where there is inadequate retention? I have had to instructors give me the option of using amalgam with pins or composite. Which is better?
jason johnson <john4525@umn.edu>

Great paper group 6! Your paper makes it clear that glass ionomer should not be used as a build up material, but in clinic they tell us to use it quite often! Kind of fusterating, they need to attend you presentation!
Jolene Welter <welt0081@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 05, 2002 at 16:17:50 (CST)
Thanks for all the comments and questions- we'll try to answer as many of the questions as possible- or at least we'll make something up. Just kidding- I hope the presentation can clarify this subject that was neglected in our preclinical years.
Sachin Mehta <meht0026@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 05, 2002 at 14:38:16 (CST)
It will be nice to see some cases you guys may have compiled, and what the specific clinical appointments are like.

Great paper group and look forward to the presentation. Knowing the material choice for builups and the pros and cons will be very helpful.
travis hanel <hane0044@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 05, 2002 at 09:50:31 (CST)
Thanks for clearing up a lot of questions about material choice. You had lots of statistics, lots of facts, and it was a subject that I felt needed to be explained!
Karl Haemig <haem0002@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 05, 2002 at 09:44:23 (CST)
Great, very thorough paper! I'm looking forward to your presentation. Hopefully we'll then have a better understanding of how to use different posts. As usual, it would be nice to try out several different materials/methods before graduation.
Leslie Spangler <span0072>
- Tuesday, November 05, 2002 at 09:40:37 (CST)
I am glad to have a refresher course in this subject. I think the instructors need to hear this stuff.
Patrick J Capp <capp0021@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 23:54:26 (CST)
Great paper group 6. The paper was a great summary of the different materials to be used as buildups and for post and cores. I am looking forward to the presentation.

Good review of restorative materials. its good to hear a review on these before i actually have to do one.
Grant Raykowski <rayk0002@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 21:56:22 (CST)
I heard the term "buildup" only when I came to the clinic and only find pieces of information from different people. Your paper has given me the big picture on this topic. I am looking forward to hear your presentation.
Lan Zhou <zhou0039@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 20:30:54 (CST)
I am excited to learn more about buildups. I still do not understand which materials one uses in which situations.
Katie Lantz <lant0025@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 13:12:18 (CST)
Good paper. I feel this is another lecture that needs to be given to the instructers up in the clinic. It would be great to see how more of the different posts are used and be able to judge ourselves if they are usefull.
Jeremy Wehrman <wehr0018@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 12:54:42 (CST)
I found it interesting that the paper stated that "cast gold post and cores are still regarded by most to be the "gold standard" due to strength, durability and compatibility with the oral environment. Did the group run across any information about the para post fiber white post material that we learned about in class? Also, is there any additional information about the carbon fiber posts causing less root fractures than metal posts?
Ann Thiele <thie0097@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 08:31:29 (CST)
I am glad we are finally getting some good info on build-ups. Before this semester I barely even knew what a build-up was. Great material comparisons, I learned a good deal about composite build-ups that I did know before.
Bradley Morrison <morr0188@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 04, 2002 at 08:19:29 (CST)
The questions posed in the paper are very realistic and many of which I've already encountered in the clinic. Also, good summary at the end. I was wondering if the ceramic posts can be milled using CAD/CAM in the same manner as ceramic inlays, onlays, etc.?
Roxane Huber <hube0079@tc.umn.edu>

Great paper group 6! The paper was a great review of build-up materials. I think that your presentation will be very helpful for clinic.
Erin Gannon <gann0033@tc.umn.edu>
- Sunday, November 03, 2002 at 20:11:06 (CST)
I enjoyed reading about the various options available for doing buildups and thought you guys did a good job reviewing all of the viable options. How does the Core Restore II material that Dr. Zidan talked about it class fare in comparision to other materials?
Devin Croft <crof0017@tc.umn.edu>
- Sunday, November 03, 2002 at 19:34:58 (CST)
We have heard about the advantages and disadvantages of using glass ionomer as a build-up material, yet it is still being used in the clinic for this purpose. What advice can you give about what to tell our patients if this material is used? Would you suggest replacing a previously placed glass ionomer build up with something else(amalgam or composite)?
Monique Wood <wood0455@umn.edu>
- Sunday, November 03, 2002 at 13:00:13 (CST)
I liked how in your paper you broke down the buildup materials individually and went through the pros and cons--I'll keep this in mind for treatment planning. Nice paper!
Emily Vober <vobe0003@tc.umn.edu>
- Saturday, November 02, 2002 at 22:47:08 (CST)
Very good review of materials. I found it helpful in sorting out the mass of information we have recieved.
Sarah Laszcwski Melstrom <slaszcws@umn.edu>
- Friday, November 01, 2002 at 12:07:01 (CST)
I think this paper gives some good take home messages about materials and methods. We really did not get too much experience with buildups in preclinic so it was good to read this.
Adena Borodkin <boro0038@umn.edu>
- Thursday, October 31, 2002 at 16:18:45 (CST)
Nice paper. I think we need to learn more about build-up materials prior to going into clinic. I think this presentation will be most helpful.
Jeremy Gross <gros0159@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, October 31, 2002 at 11:53:32 (CST)
I liked the review of buildup materials and posts. I think that this topic is some-what unfamiliar to many of us in class due to the limited lectures we have had on these topics. Nice Job.
James Sigaty <siga0004@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, October 31, 2002 at 08:22:20 (CST)
Did you find any reports suggesting that the use of dissimilar metals in buildups with crowns can cause increased risk of root fracture in endontically treated teeth? It was mentioned in our lecture on buildups, but placing an amalgam buildup under a PFM or cast gold crown seems common, very successful, and a standard of care.
Thekla Olson <olso1118@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, October 31, 2002 at 08:10:54 (CST)
I never knew there are so many different types of core materials out there. Is it possible to remove a ceramic post safely, and how bad does the material spark out upon removal?
Phillip Zhan <phzhan@yahoo.com>
- Wednesday, October 30, 2002 at 23:41:04 (CST)
The different types of posts are such a good thing to learn. Your paper was great at showing the things we have never learned. I wish we coiuld use more materials in clinic.
Steven Graber <grab0054@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, October 30, 2002 at 23:06:06 (CST)
Great job group 6. Very thorough coverage of the buildup materials. Nice to finally get this information. I thought the section about composite builup was especially infomative. Super!
Brent Swenson <swen0316@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, October 30, 2002 at 21:53:45 (CST)
I really liked hearing more on this topic. I felt like this was one of the areas we were least informed on in the first two years of school.
Brandon Owen <owen0133@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, October 30, 2002 at 11:57:13 (CST)
Nice paper. I really liked the review of the indications on when to do a build-up versus using a filler etc. I look forward to hearing more about different core materials
Aaron D. Imdieke <imdi0012@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, October 30, 2002 at 11:45:31 (CST)
In this paper, I liked how you looked at each material for foundations and build-ups and gave us a good idea of how each one works and the advantages and disadvantages of each.
