Mineral Trioxide Aggregate(MTA) has been used in Endodontic treatment successfully for more than 10 years. But the high cost of MTA limits its use in endodontics in Korea. Recently many studies have been done to compare MTA and Portland cements. To investigate the chemical constitutions of MTA (Proroot MTA, Tulsa Dental), Gray Portland cement (Lafarge Halla cement), White Portland cement(Union corp), and fast setting cement (SSangyong cement), we performed SEM(scanning electron microscope)(S4700, Hitachi) examination and EDS(Energy dispersive spectrometry)(emax, Horiba) analysis. SEM examination and EDS analysis were committed to and performed in SNU DRI (Seoul National University Dental Research Institute). We found that particles of MTA were relatively round, uniform in size, and compactly packed compared to Portland cements. Chemical constitutions of MTA, GPC, WPC and FSC were similar. It was shown that MTA contains much BiO2 . MTA and WPC showed less heavy metals such as Fe and Mg compared to GPC and FSC. FSC showed remarkably high aluminum content.

PURPOSE. Many dentists use desensitizing agents to prevent hypersensitivity. This study compared and evaluated the effect of two desensitizing agents on the retention of cast crowns when cemented with various luting agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Ninety freshly extracted human molars were prepared with flat occlusal surface, 6 degree taper and approximately 4 mm axial length. The prepared specimens were divided into 3 groups and each group is further divided into 3 subgroups. Desensitizing agents used were GC Tooth Mousse and $GLUMA^{(R)}$ desensitizer. Cementing agents used were zinc phosphate, glass ionomer and resin modified glass ionomer cement. Individual crowns with loop were made from base metal alloy. Desensitizing agents were applied before cementation of crowns except for control group. Under tensional force the crowns were removed using an automated universal testing machine. Statistical analysis included one-way ANOVA followed by Turkey-Kramer post hoc test at a preset alpha of 0.05. RESULTS. Resin modified glass ionomer cement exhibited the highest retentive strength and all dentin treatments resulted in significantly different retentive values (In Kg.): GLUMA ($49.02{\pm}3.32$) > Control ($48.61{\pm}3.54$) > Tooth mousse ($48.34{\pm}2.94$). Retentive strength for glass ionomer cement were GLUMA ($41.14{\pm}2.42$) > Tooth mousse ($40.32{\pm}3.89$) > Control ($39.09{\pm}2.80$). For zinc phosphate cement the retentive strength were lowest GLUMA ($27.92{\pm}3.20$) > Control ($27.69{\pm}3.39$) > Tooth mousse ($25.27{\pm}4.60$). CONCLUSION. The use of $GLUMA^{(R)}$ desensitizer has no effect on crown retention. GC Tooth Mousse does not affect the retentive ability of glass ionomer and resin modified glass ionomer cement, but it decreases the retentive ability of zinc phosphate cement.

Background: Carbonate apatite ($CO_3Ap$) and silica-calcium phosphate composite (SCPC) are bone substitutes with good prospect for dental application. SCPC creates a hydroxyapatite surface layer and stimulate bone cell function while, $CO_3Ap$ induce apatite crystal formation with good adaptation providing good seal between cement and the bone. Together, these materials will add favorable properties as a pulp capping material to stimulate mineral barrier and maintain pulp vitality. The aim of this study is to investigate modification of $CO_3Ap$ cement combined with SCPC, later term as $CO_3Ap-SCPC$ cement (CAS) in means of its chemical (Calcium release) and physical properties (setting time, DTS and pH value). Methods: The study consist of three groups; group 1 (100% calcium hydroxide, group 2 $CO_3Ap$ (60% DCPA: 40% vaterite, and group 3 CAS (60% DCPA: 20% vaterite: 20% SCPC. Distilled water was employed as a solution for group 1, and $0.2mol/L\;Na_3PO_4$ used for group 2 and group 3. Samples were evaluated with respect to important properties for pulp capping application such as pH, setting time, mechanical strength and calcium release evaluation. Results: The fastest setting time was in $CO_3Ap$ cement group without SCPC, while the addition of 20% SCPC slightly increase the pH value but did not improved the cement mechanical strength, however, the mechanical strength of both $CO_3Ap$ groups were significantly higher than calcium hydroxide. All three groups released calcium ions and had alkaline pH. Highest pH level, as well as calcium released level, was in the control group. Conclusion: The CAS cement had good mechanical and acceptable chemical properties for pulp capping application compared to calcium hydroxide as a gold standard. However, improvements and in vivo studies are to be carried out with the further development of this material.

Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the mechanical properties of relined and non-relined fiberglass posts when cemented to root canal dentin using a conventional dual-cure resin cement or a self-adhesive resin cement. Materials and Methods: Two types of resin cements were utilized: conventional and self-adhesive. Additionally, 2 cementation protocols were employed, involving relined and non-relined fiberglass posts. In total, 72 bovine incisors were cemented and subjected to push-out bond strength testing (n = 10) followed by failure mode analysis. The cross-sectional microhardness (n = 5) was assessed along the root canal, and interface analyses (n = 3) were conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data from the push-out bond strength and cross-sectional microhardness tests were analyzed via 3-way analysis of variance and the Bonferroni post-hoc test (α= 0.05). Results: For non-relined fiberglass posts, conventional resin cement exhibited higher pushout bond strength than self-adhesive cement. Relined fiberglass posts yielded comparable results between the resin cements. Type II failure was the most common failure mode for both resin cements, regardless of cementation protocol. The use of relined fiberglass posts improved the cross-sectional microhardness values for both cements. SEM images revealed voids and bubbles in the incisors with non-relined fiberglass posts. Conclusions: Mechanical properties were impacted by the cementation protocol. Relined fiberglass posts presented the highest push-out bond strength and cross-sectional microhardness values, regardless of the resin cement used (conventional dual-cure or self-adhesive). Conversely, for non-relined fiberglass posts, the conventional dual-cure resin cement yielded superior results to the self-adhesive resin cement.

Statement of problem: The color change of final restoration resulting from resin cement is variable since the amount of the tooth is prepared is minimum. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the color accuracy of try-in paste and their corresponding resin cements and the color stability of restoration intermediated resin cement according to two shades of three products(Rely-X. Variolink II. Choice). Material and method: Color was measured for porcelain disk sample without try-in paste, and porcelain disk sample intermediated by try-in paste and resin cement, then color differences were calculated. Results : 1. Color difference(${\Delta}E^*$) between try-in paste and resin cement showed the lowest value at Variolink II and increased in the order Choice and Rely-X statistically significant, and $?E^*$ of three resin cements was greater in A3 then A1. 2. The values of ${\Delta}L^*$ and ${\Delta}a^*$ between try-in paste and resin cement was in the increasing order of Variolink II, Choice and Rely-X. The ${\Delta}b^*$ value was increased in this order Choice, Rely-X and Variolink II in A1 on the other hand Variolink II, Rely-X and Choice in A3. 3. Color difference(${\Delta}E^*$) before and after resin cement showed the lowest value at Variolink II and increased in the order Rely-X and Choice. Conclusion : Above result revealed that the colors of try-in paste and resin cement were more or less accurate in the range of 0.35-1.95 of color difference which was unnoticeable with human eye, and Variolink II was superior to the other resin cements in color accuracy.

본 연구의 목적은 레진시멘트 색상이 상용 지르코니아 크라운의 색상에 미치는 영향을 평가하는 것이다. 연구에는 $NuSmile^{(R)}$ ZR Zirconia LT Shade (LT) 지르코니아와 $RelyX^{TM}$ U200 TR, A2, A3O (TR, A2, A3O) 레진시멘트를 사용했다. 이 때 지르코니아와 레진시멘트 시편은 직경 5 mm, 두께 1 mm의 디스크 형으로 각 조건 당 다섯 개씩 제작했다. CIE $L^*a^*b^*$값은 검은색과 흰색 배경에서 분광 광도계를 사용해 지르코니아와 레진시멘트 단독 조건과 겹친 조건에서 각각 측정했다. 레진시멘트 색상이 상용 지르코니아 크라운의 색상에 미치는 영향은 측정된 값을 이용해, 반투명도(TP, translucency parameter), 대조비(CR, contrast ratio), 색차(${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$)의 계산을 통해 평가했다. 각 변수에 대한 평균값과 표준편차는 동일한 실험군에서 CIE $L^*a^*^b^*$ 값을 3회씩 측정하여 구했다. 실험군의 통계적 유의성은 일원배치 분산분석(one-way ANOVA)과 Tukey-multiple comparisons test로 검증했다. 그 결과, 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹친 조건일 때는 지르코니아 단독 조건일 때에 비해 반투명도는 감소했고(p<0.05) 대조비는 증가했다. 검은색 배경에서 지르코니아와 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹쳤을 때의 색차는 모든 실험군에서 색의 변화를 인지할 수 없었고 LT/A3O 조합에서 최소값을 보였다. 한편, 흰색 배경에서 지르코니아와 지르코니아 하방에 레진시멘트를 겹쳤을 때의 색차는 LT/TR 조합에서 색변화를 임상적으로 허용할 수 있는 경계값을 보였다. LT/A2 조합에서는 색변화를 임상적으로 허용할 수 없었고, LT/A3O 조합에서는 색변화를 인지할 수 있었으나 임상적으로 허용할 수 있는 수준이었다. 이상의 결과와 같이 본 연구의 한계 내에서는, 흰색 배경의 LT/A2 조합 외에는 지르코니아 색상에 임상적으로 허용할 수 없는 색변화를 주는 레진시멘트는 없었다. 그 중 지르코니아 색상에 최소한의 영향을 미치는 레진시멘트 색상은 A3O였다. 따라서, 본 연구와 동일한 상용 지르코니아 크라운을 치아에 접착할 때 색변화를 최소화하기 위해서는 A3O 색상의 레진시멘트 사용이 추천된다.
