Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate clinical use of laser fluorescence (LF) to identify early childhood caries lesions suitable for applying resin infiltration. 20 exfoliated primary molars with proximal caries were selected and cut buccolingually cross the central pit for regarding the mesial and distal surfaces respectively. 27 specimens corresponding to ICDAS code 1 and 2 were selected and the LF values were measured. When infiltrant resin was applied, double staining for microscopy detection has done simultaneously. Tooth samples were sliced with 0.7 mm thick. The maximum lesion depth, maximum penetration depth, and average penetration rate were measured from the confocal scanning laser microscope image. Pearson correlation analysis was performed. The intraclass correlation coefficient of LF values shows excellent agreement. LF values had positive correlation with penetration rate, but not lesion depth and penetration depth. Significant correlation between LF readings and penetration rate was verified in deep enamel caries and dentin caries except shallow enamel caries. Infiltrant resin could penetrate with a higher rate and LF values could be increased in more active caries lesions. In assessing radiologically similar caries lesion, laser fluorescence might be useful for identifying caries activity.

이 연구는 레진침투법(resin infiltration, RI)을 적용하기 적합한 초기 유아기 우식증 병소를 동정하는데 있어 레이저 형광법(laser fluorescence, LF)의 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 인접면 우식을 가진 20개의 자연 탈락 유구치를 이용, 중심와를 지나도록 협설로 절단하여 근원심 치면을 별개의 시편으로 간주하였다. ICDAS code 1과 2에 해당하는 시편 27개를 선별하였고 LF값을 측정하였다. 현미경 평가를 위해 RI 시행 시 이중 염색을 병행하였고, 절편을 제작하였다. 현미경 영상으로부터 병소깊이(최대 탈회깊이, $LD_{max}$), 최대 침투깊이($PD_{max}$), 평균 레진 침투율(Penetration rate, PR)을 측정하고, 상관분석을 시행하였다. LF값은 PR과 양의 상관관계를 보였으나 $LD_{max}$$PD_{max}$와는 유의성을 보이지 않았다. 얕은 법랑질 우식군을 제외하고, 깊은 법랑질 우식군과 상아질 우식군에서는 LF값과 PR 간에 유의한 상관관계가 확인되었다. 활동성 우식은 RI를 적용할 경우 침투율이 높고, LF 값이 보다 높게 측정될 수 있다. 진행 정도가 유사한 우식병소의 활성도를 평가하고자 할 경우, 레이저 형광법이 유용할 것으로 사료되었다.
