제 1 급 와동이 모사된 비관통형 치아 시편에 수복된 복합레진의 중합 수축시 발생하는 AE 신호를 실시간으로 검출한 후 이를 분석하였다. 시간대별 발생 분포를 살펴보면, 광조사 초기에 중합 수축이 급격히 진행되는 제 I 구간에서 AE event 가 많이 관찰되었다. 제 I구간 후 AE event 발생 빈도가 낮아져 AE 가 별로 관찰되지 않은 제II구간이 있었는데, AE 신호의 발생이 적은 PMMA 는 치아에 비해 구간이 길었으며 AE 검출이 잦았던 스테인리스스틸 모형은 제 II 구간이 짧았다. AE 활성도를 나타내는 구간 특성은 수복재와 와동의 계면부에서 일어나는 균열의 발생빈도를 나타내는 것으로 사료되며 젤화점 직후의 제I 구간에서 AE 가 집중적으로 관측되는 바, 수복재와 와동 사이의 갭 형성은 바로 젤화점 직후에 만들어졌음을 가리킨다. 신호의 최대 진폭은 25-45dB 이었고 1 차 중심 주파수는 100-200kHz 와 240-400kHz 영역의 신호들이 발생하였으며 이는 레진이나 접착층의 파괴에 해당하였다.

Objectives: Natural extracts have been investigated as a biomimetic strategy to mechanically strengthen the collagen network and control the biodegradation of extracellular matrix. This study evaluated the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on abfraction lesions prior to the composite resin. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 30 patients (aged between 28 and 60 years) with abfraction lesions located in 2 homologous premolars. The teeth were randomly assigned according to dentin treatment: 0.02% EGCG solution or distilled water (control). After enamel acid etching, the solutions were applied immediately for 1 minute. The teeth were restored with Universal Adhesive (3M) and Filtek Z350 XT (3M). Analyzes were done by 2 independent examiners using modified USPHS (retention, secondary caries, marginal adaptation, and postoperative sensitivity) and photographic (color, marginal pigmentation, and anatomical form) criteria at baseline (7 days) and final (18 months). The data analysis used Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests (α = 0.05). Results: At baseline, all restorations were evaluated as alpha for all criteria. After 18 months, restorations were evaluated as alpha for secondary caries, color, and marginal pigmentation. There was significant difference between baseline and 18 months (p = 0.009) for marginal adaptation and postoperative sensitivity (p = 0.029), but no significant difference were verified between treatments (p = 0.433). The EGCG group had a restoration retention rate of 93.3%, while the control group had 96.7%. Conclusions: The application of EGCG solution on abfraction lesions did not significantly influence the survival of the restorations based on clinical and photographic criteria.

Crown fractures are relatively common trauma to anterior teeth, and should be restored immediately in most cases. For those who suffer from unfortunate traumatic episode, the best treatment option should be minimally invasive approach. In the presence of fractured tooth fragment, reattachment procedure creates positive emotional response in the patient and simplifies the procedure and maintenance of the patient's original tooth anatomy and occlusion. Without fractured tooth fragment, next conservative option could be direct composite restoration which is based on minimal invasion concept. This article proposes simple and very conservative techniques that anyone can do in daily practice.

복합재료가 피로하중을 받으면 재료 내부에 손상이 누적되며, 이는 재료의 물성 변화로 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 손상을 나타내는 인자로 피로계수를 사용하였다. 피로계수와 참고계수로 정의되는 손상함수로부터 복합재료의 피로수명 예측을 이론적으로 연구하였다. 제안된 모델들은 인가 응력 수준, 피로주기 및 피로수명의 함수로 유도하였다. 예측 결과는 유리섬유/에폭시 복합재료와 유리섬유/폴리에스터 복합재료를 사용한 다중응력 피로 실험 데이터를 이용하여 검증하였다.

순수 HAC/PVA 계 및 epoxy 수지와 urethane이 첨가된 HAC/PVA 계 MDF 시멘트 복합재료에 서로 다른 관능기를 갖는 3종류의 silane coupling agent를 첨가하여 강도 및 수분안정성에 대한 영향을 살펴보고 기공율 분석을 통해 미세구조와 강도의 관계를 살펴보았다. Silane의 관능기에 따라 각각의 MDF 시멘트 복합재료의 강도 및 수분안정성 향상에 대한 효과가 다른 것을 알 수 있었다. 순수 PVA 메트릭스의 경우에 대해서는 vinyl 기를 갖는 silane이 효과적인 영향을 나타내었으며 epoxy수지가 첨가된 MDF 시멘트에 대해서는 epoxy-methoxy 기를 갖는 silane이, 그리고 urethane이 첨가된 MDF 시멘트에 대해서는 diamine 기의 silane이 효과적이었다. Silane의 첨가량에 따라서는 urethane이 첨가된 MDF 시멘트 복합재료의 경우, diamine 기의 silane이 많이 첨가될수록 수분안정성이 향상되었으며 특히 2wt%의 silane을 첨가하고 wqrm press를 이용하여 성형하였을 때 건조 강도는 약 20% 향상되었으며 습윤강도는 40~70%까지 크게 향상되었다. 이는 기공율과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. Epoxy 수지가 첨가된 MDF 시멘트의 경우에서도 2wt%의 silane 첨가까지는 그 첨갈향이 많아질수록 강도가 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었지만 과량의 silane(4wt%)이 첨가될 경우에서는 오히려 특성저하가 나타났다.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the adhesion to CAD/CAM feldspathic blocks by failure analysis and shear bond strength test (SBSt) of different restorative systems and different surface treatments, for purpose of moderate chipping repair. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A self-adhering flowable composite (Vertise Flow, Kerr) containing bi-functional phosphate monomers and a conventional flowable resin composite (Premise Flow, Kerr) applied with and without adhesive system (Optibond Solo Plus, Kerr) were combined with three different surface treatments (Hydrofluoric Acid Etching, Sandblasting, combination of both) for repairing feldspathic ceramics. Two commercial systems for ceramic repairing were tested as controls (Porcelain Repair Kit, Ultradent, and CoJet System, 3M). SBSt was performed and failure mode was evaluated using a digital microscope. A One-Way ANOVA (Tukey test for post hoc) was applied to the SBSt data and the Fisher's Exact Test was applied to the failure analysis data. RESULTS. The use of resin systems containing bi-functional phosphate monomers combined with hydrofluoric acid etching of the ceramic surface gave the highest values in terms of bond strength and of more favorable failure modalities. CONCLUSION. The simplified repairing method based on self-adhering flowable resin combined with the use of hydrofluoric acid etching showed high bond strength values and a favorable failure mode. Repairing of ceramic chipping with a self-adhering flowable resin associated with hydrofluoric acid etching showed high bond strength with a less time consuming and technique-sensitive procedure compared to standard procedure.

Objectives: The aim of this in vitro study was to test the effect of 2 finishing-polishing sequences (QB, combining a 12/15-fluted finishing bur and an EVO-Light polisher; QWB, adding a 30-fluted polishing bur after the 12/15-fluted finishing bur used in the QB sequence) on 5 nanotech-based resin composites (Filtek Z500, Ceram X Mono, Ceram X Duo, Tetric Evoceram, and Tetric Evoceram Bulk Fill) by comparing their final surface roughness and hardness values to those of a Mylar strip control group (MS). Materials and Methods: Twelve specimens of each nanocomposite were prepared in Teflon moulds. The surface of each resin composite was finished with QB (5 samples), QWB (5 samples), or MS (2 samples), and then evaluated (60 samples). Roughness was analysed with an optical profilometer, microhardness was tested with a Vickers indenter, and the surfaces were examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Data were analysed using the Kruskal-Wallis test (p < 0.05) followed by the Dunn test. Results: For the hardness and roughness of nanocomposite resin, the QWB sequence was significantly more effective than QB (p < 0.05). The Filtek Z500 showed significantly harder surfaces regardless of the finishing-polishing sequence (p < 0.05). Conclusions: QWB yielded the best values of surface roughness and hardness. The hardness and roughness of the 5 nanocomposites presented less significant differences when QWB was used.

Objectives: This study investigated the effects of physically damaged and resin-contaminated tips on radiant emittance, comparing them with new undamaged, non-contaminated tips using 3 pieces of spectrophotometric laboratory equipment. Materials and Methods: Nine tips with damage and/or resin contaminants from actual clinical situations were compared with a new tip without damage or contamination (control group). The radiant emittance was recorded using 3 spectrophotometric methods: a laboratory-grade thermopile, a laboratory-grade integrating sphere, and a portable light collector (checkMARC). Results: A significant difference between the laboratory-grade thermopile and the laboratory-grade integrating sphere was found when the radiant emittance values of the control or damaged/contaminated tips were investigated (p < 0.05), but both methods were comparable to checkMARC (p > 0.05). Regardless of the method used to quantify the light output, the mean radiant emittance values of the damaged/contaminated tips were significantly lower than those of the control (p < 0.05). The beam profile of the damaged/contaminated tips was less homogeneous than that of the control. Conclusions: Damaged/contaminated tips can reduce the radiant emittance output and the homogeneity of the beam, which may affect the energy delivered to composite restorations. The checkMARC spectrophotometer device can be used in dental offices, as it provided values close to those produced by a laboratory-grade integrated sphere spectrophotometer. Dentists should assess the radiant emittance of their light-curing units to ensure optimal curing in photoactivated, resin-based materials.

When the structures are used in cold regions, the mechanical properties and dimension stability of the blade will be changed. The proposal of this study is to test the durability of the structures in cold regions. It is necessary to select the most comfortable materials and fabrication processes for more stable structures in cold regions. To select the most comfortable materials and processes, the static strength has to know through the tensile static tests at the severe condition as cold regions. First, the tensile static specimens made by RIM (Resin injection molding) process & vacuum bagging process with reinforcement materials and resin. Tensile static tests were carried out on three laminate lay-ups (carbon prepreg, carbon fiber dry fabric) at different test temperature($24^{\circ}C$, $-30^{\circ}C$), determining properties such as the mechanical strength, stiffness and strain to failure. At different test temperature, in order to test the tensile strengths of these specimens used the low temperature chamber. Next, the results of this test were compared with each other. Finally, the most comfortable materials and fabrication processes can select based on these results. The results show the changes in the static behavior of three laminate lay-ups at different test temperatures. At low temperatures, the static strengths are higher than the ones at room temperature.

본 연구의 목적은 silorane 기질의 치아 수복용 복합레진의 중합수축과 수축응력의 동력학을 평가하고 전통적인 methacrylate 기질의 복합레진과 비교하기 위함이다. 두 종의 methacrylate 기질의 복합레진(Z250, Z350 flowable)과 silorane 기질 복합레진(P90)이 사용되었다. 아르키메데스 원리를 응용해 자체 제작한 중합수축 측정 장치를 사용하여 광중합 중 일어나는 복합레진의 체적 중합수축을 측정하였고 스트레인게이지로 중합수축응력을 측정하였다. Silorane 기질 복합레진인 P90의 중합수축과 최대 중합수축률이 가장 낮았고 methacrylate 기질 복합레진인 Z350 flowable이 가장 높았다. Methacrylate 기질의 복합레진과 비교하여 silorane 기질의 복합레진 P90이 최대 수축률에 이른 시간은 더 길었고 중합수축응력은 낮았다.
