The purpose of this study was to propose the modified strip crown technique for esthetic restoration of primary anterior teeth using glass fibers. Celluloid crown form(3M, USA), Z100(P shade, 3M, USA). Aeliteflo(Bisco Inc., USA), and Clearfil SE Bond(Kuraray Medical Inc., Japan) were used for this technique. Mesh type of glass fiber(TESCERA Fiber Mesh, Bisco Inc, USA) was used for reinforcing material. After trimming the celluloid crown form, resin adhesive and flowable resin were applied on the pre-shaped glass fiber mesh. That mesh was placed on the lingual surface of inside of celluloid crown form and followed by light activation. Composite resin was filled into the celluloid crown form and put it on a prepared tooth and then light activated and finished the margin. The new modified strip crown technique can provide esthetics and increased durability for restoration of primary anterior teeth.

The purpose of this study was to compare and to evaluate the combination use of 5 kinds of dentin adhesive systems and 5 kinds of composite resins using micro-shear bond test. Five adhesive systems (Prime & Bond NT (PBN). Onecoat bond (OC), Excite (EX), Syntac (SY), Clearfil SE bond (CS)) and five composite resins (Spectrum (SP), Synergy Compact (SC), Tetric Ceram (TC), Clearfil AP-X (CA), Z100 (Z1)) were used for this study ($5{\;}{\times}{\;}5{\;}={\;}25group$, n =14/group). The slices of horizontally sectioned human tooth were bonded with each bonding system and each composite resin, and tested by a micro-shear bond strength test. These results were analyzed statistically. The mean micro-shear bond strength of dentin adhesive systems were in order of CS (22.642 MPa), SY (18.368 MPa), EX (14.599 MPa). OC (13.702 MPa). PBN (12.762 MPa). The mean bond strength of self-etching primer system group (CS, SY) in dentin was higher than that of self-priming adhesive system groups (PBN, EX, OC) significantly (P<0.05). The mean bond strength of composite resins was in order of SP (19.008 MPa), CA (17.532 MPa). SC (15.787 MPa), TC (15.068 MPa). Z1 (14.678 MPa). Micro-shear bond strength of SP was stronger than those of other composite resins significantly (P < 0.05). And those of TC and Z1 were weaker than other composite resins significantly (P < 0.05). No difference was found in micro-shear bond strength of composite resin in self-etching primer adhesive system groups (CS, SY) statistically. However, there was significant difference of micro-shear bond strength of composite resin groups in self-priming adhesive systems group (PBN, EX, OC). The combination of composite resin and dentin adhesive system recommended by manufacturer did not represent positive correlation. It didn't seem to be a significant factor.

The conventional drilling method of caries removal makes vibration and thermal stimuli, so that children are afraid of dental treatment. Recently, various non-invasive caries removal techniques of alternatives to traditional methods are introduced and chemo-mechanical caries removal is one of them. $Carisolv^{TM}$ comprises a gel that is composed of three different amino acids and a low concentration of sodium hypochlorite and specially-designed hand instruments. This report describes two cases of dental caries treatment with $Carisolv^{TM}$. The carious dentin was eliminated with $Carisolv^{TM}$ gel with instruments and then composite resin restoration was conducted.

The patient was a 26-year old female who was not satisfied with the aesthetic approach of her maxillary incisors. The treatment goal throughout the process was to manage the risk and recreate the original and youthful appearance of the smile. The biomechanical risk was managed by providing coverage of the exposed dentin and rebuilding the eroded structures with minimal tooth reduction throughout the treatment. Functional risk and prognosis for this patient were both improved by achieving acceptable function. The patient was satisfied with the full-ceramic restorations and the symmetry, harmony gingival architecture.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of composite resin restorations on the stress distribution of notch shaped noncarious cervical lesion using three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA). Extracted maxillary second premolar was scanned serially with Micro-CT (SkyScan1072 ; SkyScan, Aartselaar, Belgium). The 3D images were processed by 3D-DOCTOR (Able Software Co., Lexington, MA, USA). ANSYS (Swanson Analysis Systems, Inc., Houston, USA) was used to mesh and analyze 3D FE model. Notch shaped cavity was filled with hybrid or flowable resin and each restoration was simulated with adhesive layer thickness ($40{\mu}m$) A static load of 500 N was applied on a point load condition at buccal cusp (loading A) and palatal cusp (loading B). The principal stresses in the lesion apex (internal line angle of cavity) and middle vertical wall were analyzed using ANSYS. The results were as follows 1. Under loading A, compressive stress is created in the unrestored and restored cavity. Under loading B, tensile stress is created. And the peak stress concentration is seen at near mesial corner of the cavity under each load condition. 2. Compared to the unrestored cavity, the principal stresses at the cemeto-enamel junction (CEJ) and internal line angle of the cavity were more reduced in the restored cavity on both load con ditions. 3. In teeth restored with hybrid composite, the principal stresses at the CEJ and internal line angle of the cavity were more reduced than flowable resin.

Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary disorder that causes abnormal dentin formation and tooth morphology. Affected teeth show very thin dentin and large pulp chamber. Immediately after their eruption, the teeth tend to be destroyed rapidly. Early dental intervention is recommended to improve the feeding capacity and quality of life for the child, to maintain vertical dimension, and to promote healthy and functional dentition. This case report describes a treatment for a 4-year-2-month-old girl whose primary and permanent dentition were affected by Dentinogenesis Imperfecta. Shell teeth were observed in the entire primary dentition. The pulp of most teeth was exposed and the patient complained of pain. Most paternal family members were transferred to the Dentinogenesis Imperfecta. She needed an extensive dental treatment, but her compliance could not be expected because she was very young and anxious. So we decided to treat her under general anesthesia. All molar teeth are restored with Stainless Steel crown. Maxillary anterior teeth were extracted and mandibular anterior teeth are restored with composite resin. The patient's pain disappeared and masticatory function was restored.

For the purpose of obtaining a basic data in selecting a suitable material with clinical care, this study was designed to measure the shear stress and to examine the fracture pattern of various dentin bonding restorative materials using 43 extracted bicuspids. The following results were obtained. 1. In dentin, Silux/Scotchbond group showed the highest value ($34.5{\pm}14.7kg/cm^2$) and Fuji Ionomer Type II group and Heliosit/Dentin-Adhesit group showed almost same bond strength in the next place. Durafill/Dentin-Adhesive group showed an infinitesimal value. ($3.1{\pm}1.4kg/cm^2$) 2. Every group showed no difference in bond strength between upper and lower teeth. Between buccal and lingual surfaces. Fuji Ionomer Type II and Durafill/Dentin-Adhesive groups showed too. But, in Silux/Scotchbond and Heliosit/Dentin-Adhesit groups, it was shown that the bond strength in lingual was stronger than in buccal. 3. There was resin fracture with cohesive fracture of bonding agent in Enamel group. In dentin, adhesive-cohesive fracture and adhesive fracture were shown. 4. The stronger bond strength was, the more frequently cohesive fracture occurred. Dentin-Adhesit group showed specific shining appearance as if varnish became hard.

During a composite resin restoration, an anticipating contraction gap is usually tried to seal with low-viscosity resin after successive polishing, etching, rinsing and drying steps, which as a whole is called rebonding procedure. However, the gap might already have been filled with water or debris before applying the sealing resin. We hypothesized that microleakage would decrease if the rebonding agent was applied before the polishing step, i.e., immediately after curing composite resin. On the buccal and lingual surfaces of 35 extracted human molar teeth, class V cavities were prepared with the occlusal margin in enamel and the gingival margin in dentin. They were restored with a hybrid composite resin Z250 (3M ESPE, USA) using an adhesive AdperTM Single Bond 2 (3M ESPE). As rebonding agents, BisCover LV (Bisco, USA), ScotchBond Multi-Purpose adhesive (3M ESPE) and an experimental adhesive were applied on the restoration margins before polishing step or after successive polishing and etching steps. The infiltration depth of 2% methylene blue into the margin was measured using an optical stereomicroscope. The correlation between viscosity of rebonding agents and mciroleakage was also evaluated. There were no statistically significant differences in the microleakage within the rebonding procedures, within the rebonding agents, and within the margins. However, when the restorations were not rebonded, the microleakage at gingival margin was significantly higher than those groups rebonded with 3 agents (p < 0.05). The difference was not observed at the occlusal margin. No significant correlation was found between viscosity of rebonding agents and microleakage, except very weak correlation in case of rebonding after polishing and etching at gingival margin.

Root fracture is defined as a fracture involving the dentin, cementum, and pulp. Most fractures occur in the maxillary anterior teeth between the ages of 11 and 20 years old. The treatment for root fracture in permanent teeth involves the reduction and fixation of the displaced coronal segment. When signs of pulp necrosis or inflammatory root resorption are present, root canal therapy should be performed. Since most apical fragments maintain pulp vitality, root canal therapy is typically limited to coronal fragments. However, it's too difficult to achieve a proper apical stop on coronal fragment. Intentional replantation involves performing root apex treatment outside the mouth after intentional extraction of the tooth in a controlled environment and then replanting it. The objective is 'perfect' root canal therapy. Intentional replantation may be used in cases of failed typical root canal therapy, problematic endodontic retreatment due to the existing restoration or a calcified root canal, and when apical surgery is contraindicated because of a lack of reasonable approaches. In this case, intentional replantation was carried out to treat a horizontal root fracture in a maxillary central incisor with a calcified root canal due to previous trauma. We achieved a clinically and functionally satisfactory result.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the degree of the marginal leakage of class V cavities with 4 brands of esthetic filling materials by means of the dye penetration at the enamel & dentinal margins. 160 cavities of class V were prepared on the buccal & lingual surfaces of 80 extracted premolar teeth, which divided into 4 groups. The four groups of cavities were filled with Durafill$^{(R)}$-Durafill bond$^{(R)}$(KuIzer & Co GmbH), Bisfil M$^{(R)}$-Resin bond$^{(R)}$(BISCO Inc.), Silux$^{(R)}$-Scotchbond$^{(R)}$(3M Co.) and Fuji ionomer$^{(R)}$(type II, G-C Co.) each. All specimens were immersed in 2% methylene blue dye solution for 24 hours at $37^{\circ}C$ after a 30-second thermocycling at $4^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ and longitudinally sectioned with diamond disk into two parts. The results were as follows : 1. At enamel margins, the group filled with Durafill$^{(R)}$-Durafill bond$^{(R)}$, Bisfil M$^{(R)}$-Resin bond$^{(R)}$ and Silux$^{(R)}$-Scotchbond$^{(R)}$ show no significant difference each other(p>0.05), and the above groups show less marginal leakage comparing with the group filled with Fuji ionomer$^{(R)}$(p<0.01). 2. At dentinal margins, the group filled with Silux$^{(R)}$-Scotchbond$^{(R)}$ or Fuji ionomer$^{(R)}$ show less marginal leakage than that with Durafill$^{(R)}$-Durafill bond$^{(R)}$ or Bisfil M$^{(R)}$-Resin bond$^{(R)}$(p<0.01). 3. The enamel margins show less marginal leakage than dentinal margins in all the class V cavities(p<0.01).
