본 연구는 테트라싸이클린에 의해 변색된 백서 치아에 대한 3 종 표백제의 표백효과를 비교하고 표백제의 침투 깊이 (법랑질 두께)에 따른 표백효과의 차이를 판별하기 위해 시행되었다. 30 마리의 웅성 백서에 매일 2주 동안 테트라싸이클린 용액을 복강내 주입하였다. 디스크 형태의 32개 백서 치아 표본을 16 시간 동안 자외선으로 조사하여 변색을 야기시켰다. 대조군은 생리 식염수에 보관하였으며 실험군은 3종 표백제(Opalescence, Rembrandt, NiteWhite)에 하루 5회씩 2주간 노출시켰다. 치아 색상을 표백전, 표백 1일, 3일, 5일, 7일, 9일, 11일, 및 14일에 각기 기록하여 치아내 변색부와 정상 색상간의 색상차 (${\Delta}$E)를 판독하였다; 대조군 - 9.78, 9.17, 9.36, 9.65, 9.40, 9.99, 10.57, 11.36; Opalescence - 10.08, 7.63, 6.72, 6.04, 5.10, 4.87, 4.89, 4.27; Rembrandt -9.83, 11.27, 9.55, 8.36, 7.75, 6.94, 7.11, 7.04; NiteWhite - 10.44, 9.92, 7.58, 6.80, 5.45, 5.05, 4.73, 4.01. 표백된 모든 치아들의 색상이 밝아졌다. (p<.01) 테트라싸이클린이 주입된 56개 백서 치아를 3 일간 자외선에 조사한 다음, 3가지 유형의 표백제 침투깊이를 설정하였다. 설측 상아질과 순측 법랑질을 통한 침투 (DN), 순측 법랑질만을 통한 침투 (RE), 1.0 mm 두께의 사람 법랑질로 피개된 순측 법랑질을 통한 침투 (HE). 표본들을 Opalescence로 하루 5회씩 1주일 및 4 주간 표백한 후 횡단하여 치아 색상을 측정하였다. 표백되지 않은 치아들을 대조군으로 이용하였다. 치아내 변색부와 정상 색상간의 색상차 (${\Delta}$E)는 다음과 같았다. 대조군 - 11.67; 1주 DN 군 - 13.55; 1주 RE군 - 12.80; 1 주 HE군 - 12.07; 4주 DN군 - 7.48; 4주 RE군 - 7.50; 4주 HE군 - 11.69. 4주 DN군과 4주 RE군의 색상 변화가 가장 크게 나타났다.(p<.01)

There are many reasons for tooth discoloration. An increase in the bilirubin level may cause tooth discolorations. Such cases are rare, but most involve tooth discoloration with a greenish hue. The purpose of this case report is to describe green discoloration of the primary dentition in the presence of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. 2 boys aged 16 and 22-months presented with chief complaints of erupting teeth of abnormal color. Their primary teeth exhibited a greenish discoloration along enamel hypoplasia. Both patients were born prematurely with a low birth weight and had been diagnosed with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Systematic diseases can affect the hard tissue of teeth during their formation and result in changes in tooth color. Periodic follow-ups are required for establishing a normal dental condition and meeting the esthetic needs of patients. A pediatric dentist may be the first person to observe patients with discoloration in their primary dentition. In such cases the dentist can deduce the systematic disease responsible for this discoloration.

Coronal discoloration is a common sequela to traumatic injuries. In subluxation cases, although the injury is not strong enough to rupture the apical vessels, discoloration may appear by tearing thin walls or occluding small capillaries. In absence of infection pulpal regeneration can occur, and as a result discoloration may completely or partially subside. But judging pulpal status by coronal discoloration can be dangerous and it may lead to unnecessary treatment. This case presents coronal discoloration and recovery following traumatic injury of maxillary anterior teeth. In diagnosing traumatized teeth routine cold tests or electric pulp tests are known to be unreliable, but with the aid of ultrasound doppler imaging, assessing pulp vitality of traumatized teeth can be more accurate.

There are several causes of tooth discoloration following root canal treatment. In this study, we evaluated the effects of sealers on tooth discoloration and internal bleaching. Twenty-four teeth were divided into 4 groups: control group, AH plus, Endosequece BC, and MTA fillapex group. Root canal filling was performed using each sealer conventionally and non-vital bleaching was performed with sodium perborate. The L, a, and b values were measured using Vita easyshade. Tooth discoloration after root canal treatment occurs irrespective of the type of sealers and may cause discoloration with only gutta-percha cone. The effect of non-vital bleaching following the use of calcium silicate-based sealers such as Endosequece BC and MTA fillapex was higher than that of AH plus. Therefore, it needs careful use of sealers in endodontics and calcium silicate-based sealers have advantages of bleaching in case of discolored tooth.

치과의술의 발전과 시회·경제적인 인식의 발달로 심미안이 높아져 치과학 영역에서도 미적개념이 자연적인 것으로 환원하는 추세에 맞춰 치수치료시에 환자가 치료후 변색에 대한 우려를 종종 표시한다. 이러한 변색된 무수치아에 대한 표백술은 오래전부터 사용되어 왔으나 구강내 생활치아 모두가 전신적인 질환 및 환경요인등에 의하여 변색될 경우의 표백술은 아주 최근에 소개된 데 불구하며 (Cohen, 1970), 아직 널리 사용되지 않는 실정이다. Cohen의 보고이후 Arens(1972, 5증례), Corcoran(1974, 6증례), Cohen(1979, 18증례)의 테트라싸이크린에 의해 변색된 생활치아의 성공적인 표백술에 대한 보고가 있었으며, McInn(1966), Bailey와 Christen(1968), 그리고 Wayman과 Cooley(1981)에 의한 불소중독증에 걸린 변색생활치아의 표백술이 보고되었다. 이에 간편한 생활치아의 표백술을 소개하고자 한다.

Enamel layer consists of carbonated hydroxyapatite of 85%, water of 12% and protein of 3% and lipid and tentin consists of carbonated hydroxyapatite of 47%, water of 20% and protein of 33% and lipid so if heat is increased in teeth and then teeth color is discolor. In case high temperature is applied in teeth, teeth color changed quality is measured about change of time for minimize teeth change of color. Spectroscopic light intensity special quality by change of time rise at specification temperature.

Dentinogenesis imperfecta is an example of an inheritable dentinal defect originating during the histodifferentiation stage of tooth development, with involvement of the primary and permanent teeth. Shields, Bixler and El-Kafrawy proposed three types of Dentinogenesis imperfecta : Type I, II, III. Witkop reported a prevalence of 1 in 8000 with the trait, and no significant difference between male and female. Affected teeth have red-brown discoloration often with distinctive wearness of occlusal surface of posterior teeth and incisal surface of anterior teeth. Once enamel seperated from underlying defective dentin, the dentin demonstrates significantly acclerated attrision. Radiographically, the teeth have thin roots, bulbous crown, cervical constriction, and obliteration of the root canals and pulp chambers. In primary dentition periapical lesions or multiple root fractures are often observed. In successive generations the phenotypes of discoloration and wearness of teeth occurred, and one of the patient's subships, 10 year-old sister, showed general discoloration of her teeth and mild wearness. In this case, a 4 year-old male reported to the Yonsei University Pedodontics clinic, with a chief complaint of discolored teeth. The teeth showed generally yellowish-brown discoloration and moderate wearness. In radiographic features, obliteration of pulp, bulbous crown, and short roots were observed. It was diagnosed as Dentinogenesis imperfecta. The posterior teeth were restored with Stainless Steel Crown, and defective incisors including left upper primary central incisor which was extracted due to a root fracture with Open-faced Stainless Steel crown.

A mixture of metronidazole, ciprofloxacin and minocycline(3Mix) in distilled water or in a root canal sealer were used to disinfect the infected endodontic and periapical lesions. It has been well acknowledged in recent literature that minocycline, a semisynthetic tetracycline derivative, causes discolorations in adult teeth and various other collagenous tissues. In these cases, pulp treatments were finished successfully using a combination of antibiotics but severe discolorations of the teeth were observed. Discolored non-vital posterior tooth was treated using the prosthodontic procedure. And anterior tooth was successfully treated using the walking bleach technique. Bleaching was performed by temporarily placing a mixture of sodium perborate and distilled water into the pulp chamber. There were significant esthetic improvement.

Bleaching of vital and nonvital teeth is becoming a more commonly used treatment in the dental office and at home. To improve appearance and remove discoloration, the teeth of specific patients are treated with a variety of bleaching agents. The typical bleaching agents contains carbamide or hydrogen peroxide as the active component. The purpose of the review article was to summarize and discuss the available information concerning the effect of peroxide releasing bleaching agent on dental restorative materials and restorations. Information from all original scientific full papers or reviews listed in PubMed or ISI Web Science were included in the review. Bleaching may exert a negative influence on restorations and restorative materials. Advice is provided based on the current literature to minimize the impact of bleaching treatment on restorative materials and restorations.
