The purpose of this study was to compare the microleakage pattern of flowable composite resin to sealant, composite resin used in preventive resin restoration and glass ionomer cement used as liner. 120 extracted sound human molars were divided into 6 groups : group 1 and 2:sealant ; group 3 and 4:preventive resin restoration ; group 5 and 6:sandwich technique restoration. For the experimental groups(group 2, 4 and 6), flowable composite resin(Tetric flow) was used. For the control group, Concise was used as sealant material(group 1), Z-100 with Concise were used as preventive resin restoration(group 3), and Vitrebond was used as cavity liner(group 5). All the restorations were thermocycled and the degree of dye penetration was evaluated with stereomicroscope. The microleakage of each group was measured and statistically analyzed. The results of the present study were as follows : 1. In group 1 and 2, there was no statistically significant difference in microleakage between Concise and Tetric flow(p>0.05). 2. In groups of preventive resin restorations, there was no statistically significant difference in microleakage between Z-100 with Concise and Tetric flow(p>0.05). 3. The microleakage of Vitrebond and Tetric flow used as liner showed no statistically significant difference(p>0.05).

Penetration degree of several dyes into dentinal tubules in vivo was compared with in vitro, and experimental sensitivity of those dyes was investigated in 64 canines of 16 cats. Dentin 1mm below cusp tip was exposed by cross-sectioning with diamond disc. Pulp of 32 canines were extirpated through cervical cavities. In the presence of smear layer or after add-etching with 37% phosphoric acid to the exposed dentin surface, acrylic collar and resin cap was attached to keep dyes. 52 mmol/$\ell$ Evans' blue, 2% Methylene blue, 10 % Silver nitrate and 5% Fluorescene were then applicated on each 4 canines respectively for 30 minutes. After rinsing, the canines were ground-sectioned longitudinally and linear dye penetration was measured under microscope. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. Evans' blue and Methylene blue penetrated significantly(P<0.05) more in vitro than in vivo only in the cases that exposed dentin surfaces were not etched with acid. 2. Silver nitrate penetrated significantly(P<0.05) more in vitro than in vivo in both cases that exposed dentin surfaces remained intact and were etched with acid. 3. The penetration degree of Fluorescene did not show statistical significance between in vivo and in vitro or in acid-etched and in not acid-etched cases.

The purpose of this study was to measure penetration of dye stuff (2% Methylene blue, 2% Hematoxylin, 2% crystal violet and 2% safranin-O) on unfilled resin (Lang Dental MFG Co.) Hipol (Boopyung Dental Chemical Co. Macrocomposite resin) Durafill (Kulzer, Co. Microfilled Composite resin) and Heliosit (Vivadent Co. Microfilled Composite resin) The unfilled resin with dough stage was inserted into plastic tuble (5mm in diameter and 4mm in height) with condensation force of 1000 gr, 2000 gr and without condensation force. Hipol mixed on the mixed pad was inserted into the plastic tube by the same method as the unfilled resin. The microfilled resins which were Durafill and Heliosit were polymerized for 60 seconds with the visible light on each surface of the plastic tube which was upper and lower, under condensation force of 1000 gr, 2000 gr and without condensation force. All specimens were stored in the air for 24 hours, then specimens were immersed in the various kind of dye solution for different period of time (1 hour and 24 hours). These dye-treated specimens were polished horizontally until removing 0.5mm of each surface on the emery paper (#1000), and the dye penetration in the polished surface was measured under the digital microscope (Japan Fosuh). Following results were obtained 1. The penetration of dyes was the most excessive in Durafill and was not influenced on the condensation force and the period of immersion time. 2. All dyes were penetrated into Hipol, and Crystal violet was penetrated most excessively in all dyes. 3. The penetration of dye in all resins was not influenced by the period of immersion time and condensation force. 4. There was no evidence of dye penetration in unfilled resin.

The purpose of this study was to compare the microleakage pattern of preventive resin restoration using conventional composite resin and flowable composite resin that recently developed. 60 sound premolar teeth were allocated to three groups. Flowable composite resin was used for the experimental groups(Group I and II) and conventional resin for the control group(Group III). After composite filling and sealant application, all teeth were thermocycled and evaluated for microleakage under light microscope. Additionally, a variety of voids formed inside restorations were also evaluated. Data were analyzed statistically using Kruskal-Wallis test and/or Mann-Whitney U-test. The results of the present study were as follows. 1. Microleakage found in all samples was only limited to the interface of restoration margin and enamel. 2. The flowable composite resin groups (Group I, II) generally showed less microleakage than control groups (conventional preventive resin restoration) (p<0.05) 3. Various types of voids were observed in most specimens. Especially, there was a tendency for more and larger voids to be found in group I, II than group III (p<0.05).

Purpose: Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare soft tissue tumor, which usually arises in larger joints, such as the knee. It has a high recurrence rate after surgical treatment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and analyze the clinical results of diffuse-type pigmented villonodular synovitis cases that were treated with open total synovectomy. Materials and Methods: Between 1994 and 2006, 21 patients who had diffuse-type pigmented villonodular synovitis were selectively reviewed. Among the 21 cases studied, 14 patients presented at the knee, 5 at the ankle, and 2 at the shoulder and elbow. The mean follow up period was 5.5 years (range, 36-157 months). The average age of the patients was 34 years consist of 7 men and 14 women. Clinical outcomes were analyzed retrospectively, including range of motion and complications. Results: Open total synovectomy and adjuvant electrocautrization were done in all cases except one. During the regular follow-up period after the surgery, two patients showed symptoms of recurrence. After re-operation, only one case was pathologically confirmed as a recurrence. The patient who had partial synovectomy and the other patient who had second operation due to recur rence received additional radiation therapy. Clinical outcome scores were improved in every aspect (p<0.0001). 2 out of 14 Patients who had pigmented villonodular synovitis at the knee developed stiff knee after the surgery. Conclusion: After the open total synovectomy with electrocautrization, a low recurrence rate and satisfactory clinical outcome was achieved, observed in a minimum of 3 years of follow-up.

면섬유는 강우량, 일조량, 온습도, 영양분 등의 성장환경조건과 유전인자 및 추수방법에 따라서 섬유길이, 단면구조, 꼬임, 성숙도 등이 다양하게 변화한다. 면섬유에는 pectin, cotton wax, 지방질, 단백질계 물질, 자연색소 및 무기질 등의 불순물을 약 5% 함유하고 있다. 이러한 물순물을 제거하여 처리액의 침투성 향상을 돕고, 백도를 증진시키기 위해 전처리를 한다. 본 연구에서는 산지별로 생산되는 원면의 특성을 알아보기 위해 중국, 인도, 인도네시아, 파키스탄에서 원면을 각각 수입한 후 동일한 조건으로 편직하였다. 4개국 원면의 꼬임과 단면형태를 관찰하고, 불순물의 함량을 알아보았으며, 정련과 표백처리를 농도별로 진행하여 전처리조건이 염색성에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 정련 및 표백조건을 20% 씩 증가시켜가며 전처리를 하였고 농도별로 전처리된 시료를 Yellow 색상의 반응성 염료 0.005% (owf)로 염색한 후 자동컬러측색장치(CCM)를 사용하여 색차, Yellow Index(Y.I.), White Index(W.I.)를 비교분석하였다. 결과를 보면 인도산 원면이 다른 원면에 비해 Y.I.와 W.I.에서 다소 차이를 보였고, 염색현장과 조제업체에서 제시한 표준 전처리조건을 참고로 하였을 때, 표준 전처리조건 대비 0 ~ 40% 농도까지는 색상차이가 크게 나타나지만 60% 농도 이상에서는 색상차이가 크지 않았다. 이 결과로부터 산지별 원면의 전처리시 최소한의 조제투입량으로 최적의 전처리효과를 볼 수 있는 전처리공정조건을 설정할 수 있었고, 이로써 원가절감 및 오폐수감소 등의 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

Purpose: This study was to evaluate the effect of coloring liquids on the shear bond strength between zirconia and veneering ceramic. Methods: Zirconia(15 mm in diameter, 2.5 mm in thickness; n=40) used in the experiment were divided into 5 groups depending on the coloring liquid. Each specimen were polished using a polishing machine(LaboPol-2, Struers, UK). A cylinder of veneering porcelain(6 mm in diameter, 3 mm in thickness) was fabricated and fired on zirconia surfaces. The shear bond strength was measured using a universal testing machine(Model 4302, Instron, USA). All data were analyzed statistically using a one-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparisons test. After the shear bond test, fracture surfaces were examined by SEM. Results: Colored zirconia showed a higher shear bonding strength than that of uncolored zirconia except for colored zirconia immersed in Zirkonzahn coloring liquid. In particular, colored zirconia immersed in Kuwotech coloring liquid showed the highest shear bond strength. After the shear bond test, mixed failure patterns were mainly observed in the failure between zirconia and veneering ceramic. Conclusion: Coloring liquid enhanced the shear bond strength zirconia and veneering ceramic than uncolored zirconia.
