The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effect of a glass ionomer cement (GIC) consisting of fluoro-zinc-silicate glass on the demineralization of bovine dentin using the ultrasonic pulse-echo method. The findings were compared with those obtained using a conventional GIC. Slabs of dentin from bovine teeth were sliced, shaped into a rectangular form, and immersed in 0.5 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid solution at 25ºC for 6 days, followed by storage in distilled water for 3 days. After demineralization, they were immersed in artificial saliva with and without the GIC specimens. The propagation times of the longitudinal ultrasonic waves in the samples were measured. The ultrasonic velocities of the fluoro-zinc-silicate glass-containing GICs were significantly increased 2–3 days after the start of the experiment and showed an upward trend thereafter. These findings indicate that the GICs containing fluoro-zinc-silicate glass might exhibit the potential to promote remineralization in the dentin.

日常の歯科臨床における切削機械として広く普及しているエアータービンは,軸受け機構の違いから2種類に大別されている。本研究では,まず,これらの無負荷時回転数を空気圧との関係で調べ,次いで,切削実習用に新たに開発されたガラス・セラミックス素材を用いて定荷重切削実験を行ないトルク性能と切削効率について比較検討を加えた。<br>エアーベアリング式タービンはより高速(48&times;10<sup>4</sup>rpm)で回転するものの常に一定の高い空気圧を必要とした。一方,ボールベアリング式タービンは空気圧を調整することで回転数を15&times;10<sup>4</sup>rpmから32&times;10<sup>4</sup>rpmに可変させ使用することができた。<br>エアーベアリング式タービンは負荷をかけると回転数が低下しやすくより低いトルク性能を示したが,切削効率はより大きかった。ボールベアリング式タービンは逆に,より高いトルク性能とより小さな切削効率を示した。<br>歯科切削においては,このようなエアータービンの特長に十分留意すべきことが示唆された。

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of surface reaction-type pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler eluate on Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and MMP-3 secretion by human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). The S-PRG filler eluate contains 6 ions (F, Na, Al, B, Sr and Si) released from the S-PRG filler. The S-PRG filler eluate stimulation induced a slight secretion of MMP-1 and MMP-3 by HGF. It also enhanced the phosphorylation of p38 and ERK. The increase in MMP-1 and MMP-3 secretion by the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α was suppressed by the S-PRG filler eluate. TNF-α-induced increases in the phosphorylation of ERK were slightly enhanced by S-PRG filler eluate. These findings may prompt the development of new therapeutic agents for oral inflammation with materials composed of S-PRG filler eluate.

This study assessed the effect of a primer containing 10-methacryloyloxydecyl-(2-thiohydantoin-4-yl)propionate (MDTHP) on the bonding of noble metal alloys to an acrylic resin. Three noble metal alloys were selected as adherends, and V-Primer containing 6-(4-vinylbenzyl-n-propyl)amino-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dithione was used as a comparative control. The disk specimens of each noble metal alloy were wet-ground and divided into three conditions: specimens primed with MDTHP primer or V-Primer, and specimens without priming. An acrylic resin was bonded to each specimen, and the specimens were performed the shear bond test. The MDTHP primer showed higher shear bond strength than the V-Primer for all specimens. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis showed that MDTHP was adsorbed on the Au-Pt-Pd alloy surface even after acetone cleaning. MDTHP binds not only with Cu but also with Au and Ag, promoting the bond strength of noble metal alloys. The effectiveness of MDTHP on dental noble metal alloys was suggested.

This study investigated the bonding performance of two different types of resin cements to computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) composite blocks based on the shear bond strength (SBS) test. A silane-containing self-adhesive resin cement (Panavia SA Cement Universal) and resin luting cement (Block HC Cem) with a primer, were used. Specimens were fabricated from three different types of CAD/CAM composite blocks, and their surfaces were blasted with alumina. Resin cements were bonded to the specimens, and their SBSs were measured after 15 min, 24 h, and after being subjected to thermal cycling for 10,000 and 30,000 cycles. Three-way ANOVA for bond strength revealed that CAD/CAM composite block, resin cement and storage time significantly influenced the SBS values, and the three-way interactions between the evaluated factors, and all the interactions were significant. It was concluded that the bonding performance of resin cements to CAD/CAM composite blocks were material and storage period dependent.

The effects of mechanical retentive devices and various surface treatments on the shear bond strength between a veneering composite resin and zirconia was investigated. Zirconia disks were classified into three surface-treatment groups: airborne-particle abrasion, overglazing, and overglazing with white alumina particles of three different grain sizes (50, 70, and 105 μm) attached onto zirconia disks (ZR-50, ZR-70, and ZR-105, respectively). They were further divided into four groups (n=44): unprimed, Clearfil Porcelain Bond Activator (CA), Clearfil Photo Bond (CB), and CA+CB. An indirect composite resin was bonded to zirconia specimens. Shear bond strengths were measured. For the ZR-70 and ZR-105 groups, the CB and CA+CB specimens exhibited higher bond strengths than the other two specimens after thermocycling. The ZR-70 and ZR-105 groups achieved micromechanical interlocking, and priming with a phosphate monomer (MDP) yielded stable bond strengths between the composite resin and zirconia with alumina particles attached as retentive devices.

This study assessed the gloss and surface roughness of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) resin composites corroded with acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) application. One ceramic block, ten CAD/CAM resin composites for premolars, and four CAD/CAM resin composites for molars were assessed. The surface topography of the materials before and after APF application was observed using an electron microscope. The results were analyzed by Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Dunnett’s many to one test (p<0.05). Gloss after APF application was significantly lower for all CAD/CAM resin composites except Artesano. Ra after APF application was significantly higher for all CAD/CAM resin composites except Artesano, Dentcraft HR Block, and Estelite P Block, and Sa was significantly higher for all CAD/CAM resin composites. Irregular surface topography was observed after APF application and the surface features differed among the materials. Therefore, APF application may be detrimental to the surface properties of CAD/CAM resin composites.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of polishing paste containing surface pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler to prevent acidic attack on tooth enamel surfaces. Resin composites were filled in the standardized cavities and finished with silicon carbide paper. These specimens were divided into three groups: the unpolished “control” group, the “PRG” group polished with S-PRG paste, and the “DDP” group polished with diamond-containing polishing paste. Following polishing, the specimens were immersed in a lactic acid buffer solution for 28 days. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) signals were measured to obtain the signal intensity and width at 1/e2 at selected locations on the enamel surface adjacent to the restoration. Although signal intensity significantly increased in all groups, widths at 1/e2 did not change significantly in the PRG group. For both the control and DDP groups, signal intensity and width at 1/e2 increased and decreased over time, respectively.

This study investigates the flexural properties, Knoop hardness number (KHN), and wear behavior of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) resin blocks and compares these values with those of conventional resin composites for direct restoration (RCDs). Four CAD/CAM resin blocks and two RCDs are compared. Ten specimens per material are used to obtain the flexural properties according to ISO 6872 specifications, and five specimens per material are used for KHN measurement. For sliding impact wear testing, twelve specimens are prepared. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (LSM) is used to determine maximum facet depth and volume loss. Polished material surfaces and worn surfaces after wear testing are observed using scanning electron microscopy and LSM. While measured flexural properties and KHN are found to be material-dependent, CAD/CAM resin blocks exhibit higher wear resistance than RCDs. CAD/CAM resin blocks polymerized at high-pressure and high-temperature are found to exhibit wear behaviors far superior to those of RCDs.

Self-etch adhesive (SEA) systems simplify bonding procedures. It is believed that good mechanical retention and chemical bonding are both important factors to obtain reliable bonding to enamel. The enamel acid-base resistant zone (ABRZ) has been confirmed at the adhesive/enamel interface by scanning electron microscopic observation. However, the formation of enamel ABRZ is influenced by the type and components of adhesive systems. Chemical interactions by a functional monomer with hydroxyapatite strongly support the explanation of the mechanism for enamel ABRZ formation. The ABRZ created by MDP-containing SEA systems has shown good potential to resist acid attack from simulated recurrent caries models. In addition, fluoride release may enhance acid resistance. It has been proposed that such a reinforced enamel be termed “Super Enamel”. The concept of the formation of super enamel may contribute to protecting enamel, and conserve tooth structure leading to improved restoration longevity.

This study investigated factors associated with the longevity of resin composite restorations, which were placed in 97 patients (mean age of 58 years) by 24 dentists in Nagasaki University Hospital between 1995 and 2005. All patients were under the charge of the principal investigator (SK) and most of them had been regularly checked up for up to 11 years. A total of 503 resin composite restorations (433 by SK and 70 by the other dentists) were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier and the Cox proportional hazards model. Ten-year survival rates were 84.2% for SK and 71.8% for the others, showing a significant difference. Although the retreatment risk had a great influence on the survival time, gender and age at placement did not have. There were no significant differences in survival between conventional 2-step etch-and-rinse, 2-step self-etch adhesives with and without prior enamel etching. Cavity type had a significant influence, whereas tooth type had no effect.

The aim was to synthesize a toothpaste and analyze its effect on surface micro-hardness and roughness of enamel. Basic paste was prepared by using basic ingredients. Theobromine (0.2 wt%) and laboratory synthesized fluoridated-bioactive glass (F-BG, 4 wt%) were added to it. Post-demineralization, 36 enamel blocks were divided into six groups that were brushed with their respective toothpaste+artificial saliva (AS): group 1 (control): basic paste; group 2: basic paste+theobromine; group 3: commercial theobromine toothpaste; group 4: commercial BG toothpaste; group 5: basic paste+F-BG; and group 6: basic paste+theobromine+F-BG. On micro-hardness analysis, group 6 performed best, followed by group 4. Surface roughness results showed the maximum decrease in roughness values for group 6, followed by group 5. Treatment with toothpaste composition containing theobromine+F-BG resulted in the enamel’s increased micro-hardness and decreased surface roughness.

This study investigated the influence of roughening procedures and application of primers on shear bond strengths of CAD/CAM composite resin material or ceramic material to zirconia frameworks. A CAD/CAM composite resin block (Katana Avencia Block; AVE) and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic block (IPS e.max CAD; IEC) were used as veneer materials. The veneers were divided into three surface treatment groups; HF, hydrofluoric acid etching; AB, airborne-particle abrasion; and CON, no surface treatment. Each veneer was primed with four agents: Clearfil Porcelain Bond Activator (ACT), Clearfil Photo Bond (CPB), Clearfil Photo Bond with Porcelain Bond Activator (CPB+ACT), and no priming (UP). The zirconia frameworks and AVE or IEC veneers were resin-bonded. In the AVE specimen, AB treatment showed significantly higher shear bond strength than the other treatments at 0 and 20,000 thermocycles, except for UP and CPB+ACT groups at 20,000 thermocycles. Airborne-particle abrasion is necessary for resin bonding to Avencia blocks.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the surface damages of zirconia by Nd:YAG dental laser irradiation through a systematic evaluation of the associated microstructural changes. Disk specimens of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) and ceria-stabilized zirconia/alumina nanocomposite (Ce-TZP/Al2O3 nanocomposite) were irradiated by Nd:YAG dental laser. The specimens were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Every single irradiated spot was indicated by a circular black pit surrounded by a circular raised rim with a sunken depression at the center. On surface changes, many cracks were formed inside each irradiated pit. On changes in elemental composition, the concentration of oxygen decreased while that of zirconium increased. After heating in air, the assembly of circular black pits turned white, although the depression and raised rim remained. This study showed that Nd:YAG dental laser irradiation induced cracking and reduced oxygen content on the surface of zirconia. Consequently, these phenomena reduced the mechanical strength of zirconia. Therefore, Nd:YAG dental laser welding should not be performed on tetragonal zirconia.

This study evaluated the effect of different adhesive protocols on the shear bond strength (SBS) of bulk-fill resin composite repaired with bulk-fill or conventional composite. Cylindrical bulk-fill resin composite specimens were prepared and allocated into groups according to the bonding strategy: no treatment, Silane+Scotch Bond Multipurpose (S+SBMP), Tetric N Bond Universal, and Single Bond Universal. Following bonding strategy, bulk-fill or conventional composite buildups were performed. After 24 h of storage in distilled water at 37°C, shear force was applied to the interface using a universal testing machine. The data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey test (α=0.05). SBS was influenced by the bonding strategy and the composite used (p<0.001). Irrespective of the composite used, the group S+SBMP yielded the highest SBS values (p<0.001). Repair bond strength of bulk-fill composites can be improved by using a silane coupling agent followed by a hydrophobic resin.

The purpose of this study was to perform a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the biofilms formed on framework alloys in vitro. The biofilms formed by unfiltered fresh human saliva or Streptococcus mutans and/or Candida albicans on commercially pure titanium and gold-copper-platinum demonstrated higher amounts than other alloy and resin samples. In contrast, the silverpalladium-copper-gold showed a significantly decreased level of biofilm formation. Although the adhesion level of Streptococcus mutans on cobalt-chromium was high, that of Candida albicans was less extensive. A T-RFLP analysis and qualitative PCR of the microbes in the biofilms were performed. In a cluster analysis of all T-RFLP profiles, the cobalt-chromium pattern was integrated into one cluster. On qualitative PCR, the existence of microorganisms related to caries, preriodontitis and aspiration pneumonia was observed. Our results showed that the biofilm formation on each framework alloy was different in terms of both the quantity and quality.

We considered Class II dental cavities in critical tooth areas concerned with vital pulp therapy, and evaluated the marginal gap after treatment with Biodentine and Geristore, and one composite after either etching and adhesive (V2) and after use of a self-etching system (iBond Universal). We measured the surface morphology at the marginal gap by optical profilometry, and carried out analysis of the 3D data according to a new effective definition of marginal gap. The defined quantity was assessed for statistical significance of the apparent differences. The largest gaps appeared for Geristore (first) and Biodentine (not significantly lower), whereas the gaps of the composite controls were both lower, the lowest being the two-step self-etched system with respect to the three-steps etched and adhesive system, yet without statistical significance. Obviously, there is still room for improvement of the vital pulp therapy restorative materials, as compared to the use of standard composite systems.

Forming models and brazing parts, both of which require high accuracy, are greatly affected the polymerization shrinkage of pattern resin. In 2018, a lower-shrinkage autopolymerizing pattern resin (PRK) was introduced. In this work, we compared the rate of polymerization shrinkage between PRK with that of three autopolymerizing resins —GC Pattern Resin (GPR), Pi-Ku Plast (PIK), and Fixpeed (FIX)— as controls. The shrinkage percentages at 10 min were 7.26±0.88 for PRK, 10.78±2.28 for GPR, 8.03±1.08% for PIK, and 7.46±1.25 for FIX. The shrinkage of PRK was significantly lower than that of GPR. The lower-shrinkage autopolymerizing resin contains some multifunctional monomer and indicated that the amount of monomer was accordingly reduced from the result of polymer size and abundance ratio. Our results suggested that the monomer component and the polymer particle size were factors that contribute to reducing contraction of the resins.

To investigate the effect of luting agent type on fracture loads of implant-supported ceramic prostheses in premolar region. Ninety-nine implant-abutment complexes were divided into three different implant-supported prostheses: monolithic yttria-partially stabilized zirconia (Y-PSZ) restorations (MPZ specimens), porcelain layered on yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) restorations (PLZ specimens), and monolithic lithium disilicate ceramic restorations (MLD specimens). Implant-supported prostheses were luted with adhesive resin luting agent (RLA), glass ionomer cement (GIC), or zinc phosphate cement (ZPC). For MPZ and MLD specimens, fracture loads were significantly higher for RLA group than for GIC and ZPC groups. For PLZ specimens, fracture loads did not significantly differ in relation to luting agent. Fracture loads were significantly higher for MPZ specimens than for other test specimens, regardless of luting agent. Use of an adhesive resin luting agent is recommended for placement of premolar implant-supported monolithic Y-PSZ and lithium disilicate ceramic prostheses.

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of different surface treatments of CAD/CAM composite blocks on bonding effectiveness of resin cements, based on the shear bond strength test and the surface science examination. Specimens were fabricated from two types of CAD/CAM composite blocks (Cerasmart and VITA Enamic), and the specimen surfaces were alumina sandblasted. Specimen surfaces were treated with i) silane, ii) primer, and iii) silane+primer, then two types of cements (Block HC Cem and Super Bond) were bonded. After 24 h storage, bond strengths were measured. Surface free energy measurements were performed of the treated CAD/CAM composite blocks surfaces. The groups ii) and iii) showed significantly higher bond strengths than the group i), apart from VITA Enamic with Block HC Cem. Although the total surface free energy showed different trends in different surface treatments, a similar trend was found in both CAD/CAM composite blocks.
