The purpose of this study was to compare the marginal microleakage of different 2-step adhesive systems in Class V cavities prepared with different diamond points. Forty Class V cavities were prepared with two different (coarse or fine) diamond points on cervical third of extracted molars. The occlusal and gingival margin of cavities was located in enamel and dentin, respectively. They were divided into one of four equal groups (n = 10) and ; Group 1-prepared with coarse diamond point (EX-41), restored with Single Bond and Z 250, Group 2-prepared with fine diamond piont (TF-21F), restored with Sing)e Bond and Z 250, Group 3-prepared with coarse diamond point (EX-41), restored with Clearfil SE Bond and Clearfil AP-X, Group 4-prepared with fine diamond point (TF-21F), restored with Clearfil SE Bond and Clearfil AP-X. Specimens were thermocycled, immersed in a 2% methylene blue solution for 24 hours, and bisected longitudinally. They were observed leakages at enamel and dentinal margins. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon signed ranked test. In this study, marginal microleakage or Single Bond was not affected by type of diamond points. But Clearfil SE Bond showed higher marginal microleakage at both enamel and dentinal margin when Class V cavity was prepared with coarse diamond point.

The primary aim of this study was to assess the effects of the margin designs and composite resins on the marginal leakage of Class V resin restorations. 60 Class V cavities with $90^{\circ}$ butt joint, 60 with $45^{\circ}$ bevel joint, and 60 with concave joint were prepared on the labial surfaces of 38 extracted anterior teeth and the buccal and lingual surfaces of 71 premolars, and classified as the butt group, bevel group and concave group, respectively. After completion of the cavity preparation, Heliosit${(R)}$ was filled in 20 butt joint cavities, 20 bevel joint cavities, and 20 concave cavities. And Hi-Pol$^{(R)}$ and Palfique$^{(R)}$ were filled in the same manner, respectively. After finishing, all specimens were subjected manually to 50 thermal cycles at $4^{\circ}C$, $37^{\circ}C$, and $60^{\circ}C$. They were immersed in 0.5% methylene blue solution for 24 hours, and buccolingually sectioned with sectioning machine. The sectioned specimens were examined under the light microscope. The results indicated the following: 1. The bevel group showed the least amount of marginal leakage compared with the other two design groups, but the statistical analysis showed no significant difference at the 95% confidence level. 2. Hi-Pol$^{(R)}$ group showed the most severe marginal leakage compared with the other composite resin materials, but there was no significant difference in the groups. 3. The bevel-Heliosit$^{(R)}$ subgroup, which was filled with Heliosit$^{(R)}$ in the beveled cavities, showed the least amount of marginal leakage, but there was no significance in all the subgroups.

Cavities of Class V are caused by heavy occlusal loads due to bruxism and clenching habit. It is general to restore abfraction lesions with dental filler materials to reduce stress concentration. A material should be selected from various dental products based on long term clinical experiences or personal preference concerning filler methods. A quantitative criterion is necessary to make an evaluation of the results as dentists decide treatment methods and dental materials relying on their clinical experiences. The purpose of this study is to find an optimal restoration method and material for noncarious cervical lesions using the finite element method. An objective function was defined to minimize the sum of tensile and compressive stresses. Several models with different combinations of resins were suggested and compared in terms of the values of objective function. An optimal solution was to fill TetricFlow inside the lesion and Z100 in the remaining region with a thickness ratio of 0.125.

The purpose of this study was to compare the adaptation to the tooth structure of five light cured glass ionomer cements (Fuji II LC. VariGlass VLC, Vitremer, Dyract and Geristore). Human, non-carious fifty extracted permanent premolars stored in normal saline were used. Class V cavity preparations were created on the buccal surfaces. The occlusal margin of each cavity was placed on the enamel and the gingival margin was placed on the cementum/dentin. The teeth were then distributed at random into five groups of 10 teeth each. Group 1: Fuji II LC, Group 2 : VariGlass VLC, Group 3 : Vitremer, Group 4: Dyract, Group 5 : Geristore. The prepared cavities were restored with one of the five light cured glass ionomer cements. The manipulation of each material was handled according to the manufacturer's instructions. All samples were placed in incubator of 100% relative humidity at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The roots of the teeth were removed with the tapered fissure bur and the remaining crowns were sectioned buccolingually through the center of restorations. The cut interfaces were gradually hand polished on sandpapers from 300 up to 1200 grit. The adaptation at the tooth/cements interface was assessed by SEM (JSM-840A, JEOL Ltd.). The results of this study were as follows : 1. Group 2 revealed the best adaptation and groups 1, 4 and 5 revealed similar adaptation pattern to the cavity walls. Group 3 revealed the worst adaptation to the cavity walls. 2. Enamel margins showed better adaptation than dentin/cementum margins with each material except group 3. 3. The hybrid layers were observed between the glass ionomer cement and dentin in groups 2, 4 and 5.

This study was performed to reveal the effect of self-curing acrylic resin to dental pulp when the resin was used directly on the freshly cut dentin. Class V cavity preparations were made on the teeth of dogs with No. 701 carbide bur at a speed of 200,000 rpm and with an air water spray. Petrolatum jelly was coated on the inner surfaces of the cavities. After that, doughs of self-curing acrylic resin were filled in these cavities and before completely set these were removed and cemented with zinc oxide and eugenol cement. The dogs were sacrified between 1 day and 3 weeks at the intervals of one week and routinely processed with hematoxylin and eosin stain for histopathologic interpretation. The results were as followings; 1. The inflammatory changes of the pulp can be seen after the use of self-curing acrylic resin on freshly cut dentin. 2. The inflammatory changes of the pulp were not completely subsided until the end of third experimental week.

The purpose of this study was to examine the fracture strength and characteristics of teeth with MOD cavity preparation. Freshly extracted sound maxillary premolars were cleaned and stored in normal saline solution $37^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours before experiments. The roots of teeth were embedded in a self-curing resin, and the exposed crown were maintained in a vertical position by a modelling wax in a brass ring. The MOD cavities were prepared with No. 57 carbide bur under high speed to a depth of 2.0mm and a width of 2.0mm(Fig.1). All the prepared teeth specimens were divided into 7 groups according to the mode of cavity form and restorative materials (Table 1, 2): Group I, unpreapred, intact teeth as control Group II, prepared cavity without restoration Group III, prepared teeth restored with amalgam Group IV, prepared teeth restored with composite resin (P-10) Group V, prepared teeth with beveled enamel margins restored with composite resin (P-10) Group VI, prepared teeth restored with light-cured composite resin (P-30) Group VII, prepard teeth with beveled enamel margins restored with light-cured composite resin (P-30) After placement of restorations, all of the specimens were stored in water at $37^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours before testing. All of the specimens were tested on the Instron Universal Testing machine (No. 6025) in order to evaluate the strength of fracture. One metal ball 5.0mm in diameter contacting the specimens parallel to the occlusal surface was used to in this study (Fig. 1). The fracture characteristics of the specimens were examined with naked eye and in the scanning electron microscope (JSM-20). The results obtained from this study were as follows: 1. The mean fracture strength was the highest in group VI and that in group II was the lowest. 2. The progress of crack of teeth propagated into the pulp cavity. 3. In case of the group of the restored teeth, the crack occurred to be accompanied with cuspal fracture. 4. The crack of restored teeth was initiated along the pulpo-axial line angle of the cavity.

This study was undertaken to evaluate the degree of the marginal leakage of composite restoration with 3 brands of dental adhesives by means of the dye penetration at the enamel and dentinal margins. 150 cavities of class V were prepared on the buccal and lingual surfaces of 75 extracted anterior and premolar teeth, which were devided into 3 groups. The cavities were filled with composite resin, Silar$^{(R)}$ (3M) and Heliosit$^{(R)}$ (Vivadent) after application of the dental adhesives, specifically Scotchbond$^{(R)}$ (3M) which is essentially composed with halophosphorus ester of Bis-GMA, Dentin Adhesit$^{(R)}$ (Vivadent) which is polyurethane resin, and Enamel Bond$^{(R)}$ (3M) which is a product of Bis-GMA with low viscosity at internal surfaces and margins of the cavities. All specimens were immersed in $37^{\circ}C$, 0.5% methylene blue solution for 24 hours after thermocycling at $4^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$, embedded in acrylic resin, and sectioned with diamond disk into two parts. The sectioned specimens observed with the light microscope. The following results were obtained: 1. The group filled with Scotchbond$^{(R)}$-Silar$^{(R)}$ the other two groups at the enamel margins. 2. No significant difference in the degree of the marginal leakage had appeared between Dentin Adhesit$^{(R)}$-Heliosit$^{(R)}$ group an d Enamel Bond$^{(R)}$-Silar$^{(R)}$ group at the enamel margins. 3. Severe marginal leakage with penetration of dye to the floor of cavity had appeared from the all three groups and no significant difference in the degree of marginal leakage existed between the three groups at the dentinal margins.

In order to explore microleakage in class V cavity based on different kinds of several dentin adhesive and composite resin, 2 kinds of composite resin was restored and exposed after applying 4 kinds of dentin adhesives. Deposited in methylene blue solution for 4 hours and cut in parallel with tooth longitudinal axis. By observing dye penetration level of enamel and dentin margins of each restored resin following conclusion was obtained. 1. In composite resin Filtek Z350XT Universal (3M/ESPE Dental Products, USA) in enamel margin, Easy Bond (3M/ESPE Dental Products) showed the lowest microleakage and this leakage was represented to be high in the order of Single Bond 2 (3M/ESPE Dental Products), Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3M/ESPE Dental Products) and Cearfil SE Bond (Kuraray Medical Inc., Japan). In case of Filtek Z350XT Flowable (3M/ESPE Dental Products), Scotchbond Multi-Purpose showed the lowest microleakage and this leakage was represented to be high in the order of Single Bond 2, Clearfil SE Bond and Easy Bond. 2. In case of Filtek Z350XT Universal in dentin margin, Easy Bond showed the lowest microleakage and this leakage was represented to be high in the order of Scotchbond Multi-Purpose, Single Bond 2 and Clearfil SE Bond. In case of Filtek Z350XT Flowable, Scotchbond Multi-Purpose and Single Bond showed the lowest microleakage and this leakage was represented to be high in the order of Clearfil SE Bond and Easy Bond. 3. In all the groups excepting S-U group (Single Bond 2+Filtek Z350XT Universal), enamel margin showed more higher microleakage than that of dentin margin. 4. There was a difference between enamel and dentin margin among each group but it was not significant statistically (p>0.05). When summarizing this result, it is considered that composite resin and dentin adhesive could be applied selectively and particularly in case of applying 1-step self-etching dentin adhesive, this method would be advantageous for manipulation convenience and shortening of operation time.
