Background: As a restorative material used to treat dental caries, the light-curing type resin is widely used, but it has the disadvantage of polymerization shrinkage. The Bulk-Fill composite resin was developed to solve these shortcomings, but the existing research mainly focused on comparing the physical properties of a composite resin and a Bulk-Fill resin. A study on the light curing time and distance of the Bulk-Fill resin itself tend to be lacking. Methods: This study compares the surface microhardness of specimens prepared by varying the light curing time and distance of smart dentin replacement (SDR) as a flowable Bulk-Fill resin and Tetric N-ceram as a packable Bulk-Fill resin, and confirms the polymerization time and distance that becomes the optimum hardness. To determine the hardness of the specimen, it was measured using the Vickers Hardness Number (Matsuzawa MMT-X, Japan). Results: In SDR, the surface microhardness decreased as the distance increased in all time groups in the change distance from the curing tip. In the change of light curing time with respect to the distance from curing tip, the surface microhardness increased as the time increased. In Tetric N-ceram, the surface microharness showed no significant difference in the change of the distance of curing tip in the group of 20 and 60 second. But in the group of 10 and 40 seconds, decreased as the distance increased. The surface microharness increased as the light curing time increased in all distance groups. Conclusion: When using SDR and Tetric N-ceram in clinical practice, it is considered that as the distance from the polymerization reactor tip increases, a longer light curing time than the polymerization time recommended by the manufacturer is required.

최근에 소개된 single high-intensity LED 중합기는 이전의 LED 중합기에 비해 높은 광도를 가지며 짧은 중합시간에 적절한 물성을 가질 수 있다고 한다. 본 연구는 single high-intensity LED 중합기의 중합성능을 평가하기 위하여 거리에 따른 중합도를 조사하였다. Mylar strip사이에 복합레진(Filtek Z250)을 넣고 압접시켜 만든 얇은 필름형 시편을 LED 중합기(Elipar Freelight 2, 10초), 플라스마 중합기(Flipo, 6초)와 할로겐 중합기 (XL3000, 20초)를 사용해 0mm, 2mm, 4mm, 6mm에서 광도를 측정하고 중합시켰다. 중합된 시편을 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer(FTIR)를 이용해 중합도를 측정한 후 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 모든 중합기에서 거리가 증가할수록 유의하게 광도가 감소하였으며 LED중합기의 경우 6mm에서 다른 중합기에 비해 가장 많은 광도 감소율을 보였다(p<0.05). 2. 모든 중합기에서 거리가 증가함에 따라 4mm까지는 중합도가 감소하였지만 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다(p>0.05). 하지만 4mm와 6mm사이에서는 모든 중합기에서 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 3. 각 거리에 따른 중합기간의 중합도 차이는 0mm, 2mm, 4 mm에서 LED중합기가 다른 중합기보다 유의하게 높은 중합도를 보였으며 (p<0.05) 플라스마 중합기와 할로겐 중합기 사이에서는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 하지만 6 mm에서는 모든 중합기 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>0.05).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the dimensional changes of relined dentures with a light-curing resin, a heat-curing resin, and a direct, hard reline resin. And also to measure the transverse strength, impact strength, surface hardness of the three resins used in relining. The surface textures of three resins also of evaluated by using scanning electron microscope. Through analyses on the data from this study, the following conclusions were obtained. 1. Impact strength of heat-curing resin was highest, and direct, hard reline resin higher, light-curing resin lowest. 2. Transverse strength of heat-curing resin was highest, and direct, hard reline resin and light-curing resin was lower and not signiicantly different. 3. Surface hardness of light-curing resin was lighest, heat-curing resin higher, and direct, hard reline resin was lowest. 4. After storage of the relined dentures for 1 day and 1 week in water at room temperature, linear shrinkage of distance between the reference points in the maxillary base relined with direct, hard reline resin was lowest, and those relined with light-curing resin and heat-curing resin were lower and were not significantly different. 5. After storage for 4 weeks in orator at room tempeature, linear shrinkage of distance between ridge crests of dentures relined with heat-curing resin was highest and that of distance between denture borders was not significantly different. 6. The dimensional changes of relined dentures during storage in water was not significant except those of distance between denture borders relined with light-curing resin at 1 day and 1 week storage in water. 7. At low magnification (x40) of SEM examination, the surface textures of three resins were similar except light-curing resin which had some defects. At high magnification (x200), the surface textures of hard, direct reline resin were smooth with little defects, but those of heat-curing resin and light-curing resin w ere irregular.

이 연구의 목적은 tricalcium silicate cement 중 하나인 TheraCal LC의 광중합 시간과 거리에 따른 중합도를 평가하는 것이었다. 금속주형을 이용해 시편을 제작하여 Vickers hardness number (VHN)를 측정하였으며, 중합시간과 조사시간에 따른 시편의 미세경도 값을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 모든 군에서 상면의 VHN이 하면의 VHN보다 유의성 있게 컸다(p < 0.05). 하면의 VHN은 모든 중합거리에서 중합시간이 증가함에 따라 유의하게 증가하였고(p < 0.05), 중합시간이 일정하고 중합거리가 4.0 mm 이상이 되었을 때 유의하게 감소하였다(p < 0.05). 또한 시편을 20초간 중합한 경우 하면의 VHN은 2를 넘지 못했으며 이는 상면의 10%에 해당하였다. 이 연구 결과에 의하면, 모든 중합거리에서 TheraCal LC 시편의 하면까지 중합하기에 20초의 광중합 시간은 충분하지 않았으며, 중합도를 높이기 위해서 중합시간의 증가와 도포 두께의 감소를 고려해볼 필요가 있다.

In this study, the wear characteristics of five different dental composite resins cured by conventional halogen light and LED light sources were investigated. Five different dental composite resins of Surefil, Z100, Dyract AP, Fuji II LC and Compoglass were worn against a zirconia ceramic ball using a pin-on-disk type wear tester with 15 N contact force in a reciprocal sliding motion with sliding distance of 10 mm/cycle at 1Hz under the room temperature dry condition. The wear variations of dental composite resins were linearly increased as the number of cycles increased. It was observed that the wear resistances of these specimens were in the order of Dyract AP ＆gt; Surefil ＆gt; Compoglass ＆gt; Z100 ＆gt; Fuji II LC. On the morphological observations by SEM, the large crack formation on the sliding track of Fuji II LC specimen was the greatest among all resin composites. Dyract AP showed the least wear with few surface damage. There is no significant difference in wear performance between conventional halogen light curing and light emitting diodes curing sources. It indicates that a light emitting diodes (LED) source can replace a halogen light source as a curing unit for composite resin restorations.

본 연구에서는 세 가지 서로 다른 광원(할로겐 램프 :. Elipar Trilight ; 3M ESPE, Seefeld, Germany, Light Emitting Diode (LED) ; Elipar Freelight2 ; 3M ESPE, Seefeld, Germany, 플라즈마 광 : Flipo ; LOKKI, France)을 사용하여 브라켓과 광원사이의 거리에 따른 광중합형 글라스 아이오노머 시멘트(Fuji ORTHO LC : GC, Japan)의 전단 결합 강도를 알아보고자 하였다. 1. 광중합기에 따른 전단 결합 강도는 광중합기로부터 브라켓까지의 거리가 0mm일 때 3가지 광원에 유의할 만한 차이는 보이지 않았고 광중합기로부터 브라켓까지의 거리가 3mm, 6mm일 때, 할로겐 광과 플라즈마 광 사이에는 유의할 만한 차이가 없었으나 LED 광은 유의성 있게 낮은 전단 결합 강도를 나타냈다. 2. 할로겐 광과 플라즈마 광으로 광중합시 거리에 따른 전단 결합 강도에 유의한 차 없었고 LED광을 사용하여 광중합시에는 거리가 증가할수록 전단 결합 강도가 감소하였다. 특히 0mm에서 3mm로 거리가 증가시 유의할 만한 감소를 나타내었다.

이 연구의 목적은 광중합기의 조사단에 광섬유를 적용하였을 때, 조사단과 교정용 버튼의 베이스 사이의 거리와 광섬유 직경에 따른 교정용 버튼의 전단결합강도를 평가하는 것이다. 발치된 소구치 315개를 I, II, III군으로 나누어 광섬유를 사용하지 않거나 3.0, 5.0 mm 직경의 광섬유를 사용하였고 각 군을 A, B, C의 하위군으로 분리하여 5.0, 10.0, 15.0 mm 깊이로 조사단과의 거리를 설정하여 전단결합강도를 측정하였다. 거리 증가에 따라 I군의 전단결합강도가 유의하게 감소하였다. 광섬유 직경에 따른 전단결합강도를 평가했을 때 거리가 5.0 mm인 경우 군 간에 유의성이 관찰되지 않았고 10.0 mm인 경우 IB군에 비해 IIIB군에서 유의하게 높은 전단결합강도를 보였고 15.0 mm인 경우 IC군에 비해 IIC, IIIC군 모두 유의하게 높은 전단결합강도를 보였다. 고로 광중합기의 접근성이 떨어질 때, 광섬유 사용이 추천되며 직경이 큰 광섬유가 성공적인 버튼 부착에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and substitute possibility of a newly developed flowable composite resins as a luting cement for translucent fiber post. Material & Method: Two kinds of 12 mm translucent fiber Post (D.T. Light-Post (Bisco, USA) and FRC Postec (Ivoclar vivadent, Liechtenstein) was inserted into the teflon mold (7 mm diameter, 9 mm long) and Filtek-Flow (3M ESPE. USA), a light activated flowable composite resin, was polymerized for 60 seconds through the post. Also, the post was cut from the tip to 9 mm, 6 mm, 3 mm, and Filtek-Flow was light cured according to each length. For comparison, 60 seconds light-cured and 24 hours self-cured two dual cured resin cement (Duo-cement (Bisco, USA) and 2 Panavia-F (Kuraray, Japan)) samples were prepared as control group. Also cavities (1 mm in width, 1 mm in depth and 12 mm in length) were prepared using acrylic plate and aluminum bar, and flowable composite resin was flied and light cured by the diffused light from the fiber post's side wall. The degree of polymerization was measured according to the distance from curing light using Vickers' hardness test. Result: Within the limitation of this study, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. Vickers' hardness of light cured dual cured resin cement and flowable composite resin decreased from Panavia-F, Filtek-Flow and Duo-cement accordingly (p<0.05). In the dual curing resin cement, light curing performed group showed higher surface hardness value than self cured only group (p<0.05). 2. Surface hardness ratio (light cured through fiber post /directly light cured) of D.T. Light-Post using Filtek-Flow showed about 70% in the 6 mm deep and about 50% in the 12 mm deep FRC Postec showed only 40% of surface hardness ratio. 3. Surface hardness ratio by diffused light from the post's side wall showed about 50% at 6 mm and 9 mm deep, and about 40% at 12 mm deep in D.T. Light-Post. However, FRC Postec showed about 40% at 6 mm deep, and almost no polymerization in 9 mm and 12 mm deep.
