If root and resection is done during surgical endodontic treatment, newly exposed dentinal tubules form pathways between the canal and the peripheral tissue. Nd : YAG laser was used to block this phenomenon, and its effect was studied with dye penetration and SEM techniques. 40 intact single rooted teeth were divided into 4 groups(10 each) : control group and test groups, in which retrograde cavity surface, cutting surface, retrograde cavity surface & cutting surface were treated with laser(1 watt 15pps) and finally retrograde filling with IRM was conducted. After that, they were stained with 2 % methylene blue, sectioned and evaluated by the maximum infiltration depth. And to observe surface change, they were prepared for SEM. The results were as follows ; 1. All experimental groups showed microleakage with variation in amount. 2. The 2nd group which treated both the retrograde cavity and cutting surface showed significantly less microleakage than the other groups(p<0.05). There was no significant difference between groups treated on one side only. 3. As a result of SEM observation of dentin surface, obstruction of dentinal tubules with marble shaped granules, which were different from normal dentin could be seen. Cracks could be seen also. 4. In summary of this experiment, it is thought that effort to obstruct the exposed dentinal tubules as well as retrograde cavity after root end resection is needed.

In the Infected root canals, the majority of the isolated bacteria are either strict anaerobes or microaerophilic organisms. Among thease, Black-pigmented Bacteroides species are the most important and have relation with clinical symptoms. The purpose of this study were to investigate on the 7 different types of bacteria which include Black-pigmented Bacteroides - Black--pigmented Bacteroides, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Streptococcus, Capnocytophaga, Eiknella corrodens, Fusobacterium, Actinomyces - and the interrelationship between these 7 bacterical species, and to compare Black-pigmented Bacteroides with the clinical symptoms in infected root canals. The canal contents of 15 necrotized teeth with 8 clinical symptoms were sampled and cultured aerobically and anaerobically for growth in 7 selective agar plates for 7 bacterial species. Black-pigmented Bacteroides and Streptococcus subspecies were identified by biochemical tests. The results were as follows; 1. 70.51% of the bacteria isolated were anaerobes and 29.49% were aerobes. 2. B. loescheii, B. intermedius, B. denticola were isolated in 8 cases, Streptococcus was isolated in 8 cases, Fusobacterium was isolated in 6 cases, Actinomyces was isolated in 5 cases and Eiknella corrodens, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Capnocytophaga were not isolated. 3. There were mutual inhibition of growth between Black-pigmented Bacteroides and Streptococcus. (P<0.01) But Actinomyces and Fusobacterium showed mutual aids for growth. (P<0.05) 4. Black-Pigmented Bacteroides was found to be related both to sinus tract formation and to apical sensitivity to palpation.(P < 0.05).

The purpose of these study was to compare the sealing ability of a injection-molded thermoplasticized gutta-percha and silver amalgam as retroseal material in vitro. Sixty two upper and lower extracted human teeth with single root were randomly selected and instrumented in a conventional method with H-file. After instrumentation the root canal was obturated with gutta-percha by lateral condensation technique with AH26 and an apicoectomy was performed by beveling the root tip 45 angle. In the experimental group 1 and 2, a class I preparation was made and filled with silver amalgam or gutta-percha and in the experimental group 3 an apicoectomy only was performed. All specimens were immersed in black Indian ink, decalcified and cleared. The depth of dye penetration into the canals were evaluated by califer. The results were as follows ; 1. The experimental group 1 displayed the smallest mean dye penetration as 0.45mm. 2. The experimental group 3 displayed the greatest mean dye penetration as 0.65mm. 3. There was the difference in dye penetration between each group, but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).

Objectives: The aim was to evaluate dentinal crack formation after root canal preparation with ProTaper Next system (PTN) with and without a glide path. Materials and Methods: Forty-five mesial roots of mandibular first molars were selected. Fifteen teeth were left unprepared and served as controls. The experimental groups consist of mesiobuccal and mesiolingual root canals of remaining 30 teeth, which were divided into 2 groups (n = 15): Group PG/PTN, glide path was created with ProGlider (PG) and then canals were shaped with PTN system; Group PTN, glide path was not prepared and canals were shaped with PTN system only. All roots were sectioned perpendicular to the long axis at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 mm from the apex, and the sections were observed under a stereomicroscope. The presence/absence of cracks was recorded. Data were analyzed with chi-square tests with Yates correction. Results: There were no significant differences in crack formation between the PTN with and without glide path preparation. The incidence of cracks observed in PG/PTN and PTN groups was 17.8% and 28.9%, respectively. Conclusions: The creation of a glide path with ProGlider before ProTaper Next rotary system did not influence dentinal crack formation in root canals.

본 연구의 목적은 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 ProRoot MTA (Dentsply Tulsa, USA)와 최근 국내에서 새로 개발된 OrthoMTA (Bio MTA, Korea)의 감염된 근관에서 주로 발견되는 3개의 미생물에 대한 효과를 다양한 농도와 시간에서 비교하는 것이다. 50, 25, 12.5 mg/mL의 농도로 준비된 ProRoot MTA와 OrthoMTA에 Enterococcus faecalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum 그리고 Staphylococcus epidermidis를 접종 후 24, 48, 72시간에 항미생물 효과를 관찰하여 다음과 같은 연구결과를 얻었다. E. faecalis의 경우 ProRoot MTA와 OrthoMTA 50, 25, 12.5 mg/mL 농도의 모든 시간대에서 세균을 완전히 억제하지는 못했지만 양성 대조군에 비해 성장이 조금 감소한 양상을 보였다(p < 0.05). F. nucleatum의 경우 ProRoot MTA 50 mg/mL 농도의 24시간에서 미생물을 억제하였으나 시간이 지남에 따라 세균의 성장을 보인 반면 OrthoMTA의 경우 같은 농도에서 시간이 지나도 계속 세균을 억제하였다(p < 0.05). S. epidermidis의 경우 ProRoot MTA 50 mg/mL, OrthoMTA 50, 25 mg/mL 농도의 24시간에서 억제 효과를 보였으나 시간이 지나면서 세균이 조금씩 성장하였다. 그러나 전체적으로 모든 농도와 시간에서 양성 대조군에 비해서는 억제 효과를 나타냈다(p < 0.05). 본 연구를 통해 국내에서 새로 개발된 OrthoMTA는 기존의 ProRoot MTA보다 항균활성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the bonding of resin- based root canal sealer, AH26 when the sealer was applied as a thin layer between dentine and gutta-percha surface. In this study forty non-caries extracted human molars and resin-based root canal sealer(AH 26, DeTrey/Dentsply, Germany) were used. Disks of gutta-percha, 6mm in diameter.6mm thick (Diadent/Dentsply, Korea) for thermoplastic obturation were used and dentin surfaces were treated with 2% NaOCl(Group 1) or 2%NaOCl+17% EDTA(Group 3). Disks of gutta-Percha, 6mm in diameter.6mm thick (Diadent/Dentsply, Korea) for conventional obturation were used and dentin surface were treated with 2% NaOCl(Group 2) or 2%NaOCl+17% EDTA(Group 4). Enamel was removed by a horizontal section 1mm below the deepest portion of the central occlusal groove by using a watercooled low speed diamond saw. A second horizontal section was done around cementoenamel junction. Exposed dentin surface was cut to approximately $8{\times}8{\;}mm$ rectangular shape and was ground against 320, 400, 600 grade silicon carbide abrasive paper serially. After grinding, the dentine surface were soaked in a solution of 2% NaOCl for 30 minutes and twenty of specimens were treated with 17% EDTA solution for 1 minute. The treated specimens were washed and dried, Root canal sealer, AH26 was prepared according to the manufacture's instructions The Gutta-percha and dentin surface were coated with a thin layer of the freshly mixed seal or. The specimens were left overnight at room temperature. After their initial set, they were transferred to an incubator at $37$^{\circ}C$ for 72 h. After 72 hours, resin blocks were made. The resin block was serially sectioned vertically into stick of $1{\cdot}1mm$. Twenty sticks were prepared from each group. After that, tensile bond strength f3r each stick was measured with Microtensile Tester Failure patterns of the specimens at the interface between gutta-percha and dentin were observed under the SEM(x1000) and Stereomicroscope (LEICA M42O, Meyer Inst., TX U.S.A) at 1.25 x25 magnification. The results were statistically analysed by using a One-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. The results were as follows; 1. Tensile bond strengths($mean{\pm}SD$) were expressed with ascending order as follows: Group 1, $3.09{\pm}$ 1.05Mpa : Group 2, $6.23{\pm}1.16MPa$ : Group 3, $7.12{\pm}1.07MPa$ : Group 4, $10.32{\pm}2.06MPa$. 2. Tensile bond strengths of the group 2 and 4 used disks of gutta-percha for conventional obturation were significantly higher than that of the group 1 and 3 used fir thermoplastic obturation. (p < 0.05). 3. Tensile bond strengths of the group 3 and 4 treated with 2% NaOC1+17% EDTA were significantly higher than that of the group 1 and 2 treated with 2% NaOCl. (p < 0.05). 4. In analysis of failure patterns at the interface between sealer and gutta-percha, there were observed 49 (61%)cases of adhesive failure patterns and 31 (39%) cases of mixed failures patterns.

본 연구는 도말층 제거 여부에 따른 근관 밀폐효과를 평가하기 위해 단근관 치아를 3% NaOCl 하에서 Ni-Ti file을 이용하여 crown-down법으로 근관 형성 후 최종세정제로 NaOCl을 사용한 군과 EDTA를 사용한 군, 6개월 보관한 NaOCl-6군과 EDTA-6군으로 분류하였다. Continuous wave법으로 근관 충전 시행 후 색소 침투를 시행한 다음 해부학적 근첨에서 1.5 mm (Level 1), 3.0 mm (Level 2), 4.5 mn (Level 3)에서 수평절단 하여 누출률을 측정하였다. 1. 모든 실험군에서 평균 누출률은 치근단부에서 치경부로 갈수록 감소하였다. 2. NaOCl군의 누출률이 EDTA 군보다 level 1 2, 3에서 높게 나타났으나 level 1에서만 통계학적 유의차를 보였다 (p < 0.05). 3. NaOCl-6군의 누출률이 EDTA-6 군보다 Level 1, 2, 3에서 높게 나타났으나 level 1에서만 통계학적 유의차를 보였다 (p < 0.05). 4. NaOCl-6군의 누출률이 NaOCl군에 비해 Level 1, 2, 3에서 증가하였으나 level 1에서만 통계학적 유의차를 보였다 (p < 0.05). 5. EDTA-6군의 누출률이 EDTA 군에 비해 Level 1, 2, 3에서 증가하였으나 통계학적 유의차는 없었다. 6. 주사전자현미경 관찰 결과 NaOCl 군과 NaOCl-6 군은 도말층이 제거되지 않아 상아세관내로 sealer 및 근관충전재가 침투하지 못한 반면, EDTA 군과 EDTA-6 군에서는 도말층이 제거되고 상아세관내로의 sealer와 근관충전재의 침투가 관찰되었다. 이상의 연구결과 EDTA를 이용하여 도말층을 제거한 경우 근관충전 즉시와 6개월 후 치근단 1/3 부위의 근단부 미세누출을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

학생들이 사용한 세 가지 NiTi file systems (ProFile$^{(R)}$, Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$, K3$^{TM}$)을 사용하여 성형한 모형 근관의 apical terminus width를 비교하여 flute angle 및 pitch 혹은 radial land가 screw-in effect에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. NiTi file의 사용 경험이 없는 부산대학교 치과대학 4학년 학생 50명이 세 종류의 NiTi file systems- Pro File$^{(R)}$ (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), K3$^{TM}$ (SybronEndo, Glendora, France), Hero Shaper$^{\circledR}$(Micromega, Besancon, France)-을 사용하여 각 system으로 하나의 근관씩, 모두 150 개의 레진 블락 근관모형 (Endo Training Bloc; Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland)을 16 : 1 감속 handpiece를 장착한 electric motor (Tecnika ATR, Pistola, Italy)를 사용하여 300 rpm의 속도에서 torque는 30 (Tecnikamotor setting value)으로 성형하였다. 스캐너로 근관 성형 전 후 이미지를 채득하여 중첩한 후 근단부의 최종 폭경을 측정하였다. 통계분석은 one-way ANOVA와 95% 신뢰도의 Scheffe's multiple range test로 사후 검증하였다. ProFile$^{(R)}$의 근관 성형 후 근단부의 폭이 Hero Shaper$^{(R)}$ and K3$^{TM}$에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 작았다. 본 연구의 결과에서 근단부의 과도한 확대가 variable pitch와 helical angle를 가진active file에 비해 con-stant pitch와 helical angle을 가짐에도 불구하고 radial land를 가진passive file에서 적게 나타났다. 이 결과로 추정해 볼 때, variable pitch와 helical angle보다는 근본적으로 radial land가 screw-in effect의 예방에 더 큰 역할을 하는 것으로 추정될 수 있다 따라서 NiTi file의 사용 경험이 없는 초심자의 경우 근단부 폭경의 유지능력이 좋은 ProFile$^{(R)}$의 사용이 추천된다.
