Statement of problem. Porcelain repair mainly involves replacement with composite resin, but the bond strength between composite resin and all-ceramic coping materials has not been studies extensively. Purpose. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of composite resin and ceramic etching pattern on shear bond strength of Empress2 ceramic and observe the change of microstructure of ceramic according to etching methods. Material and methods. Eighty-five cylinder shape ceramic specimens (diameter 5mm, IPS Empress 2 core materials) embeded by acrylic resin were used for this study. The ceramic were specimens divided into sixteen experimental groups with 5 specimens in each group and were etched with phosphoric acid(37%, 65%) & hydrofluoric acid (4%, 9%) according to different etching times(30s, 60s, 120s 180s). All etched ceramic surfaces were examined morphologically using SEM(scanning electron microscopy). Etched surfaces of ceramic specimens were coated with silane (Monobond-S) & adhesive(Heliobond) and built up composite resin using Teflon mold. Accomplished specimens were tested under shear loading until fracture on universal testing machine at a crosshead speed 1mm/min; the maximum load at fracture(kg) was recorded. Shear bond strength data were analyzed with one way ANOVA and Duncan tests.(P<.05) Results. Maximum shear bond strength was $30.07{\pm}2.41(kg)$ when the ceramic was etched with 4% hydrofluoric acid at 120s. No significant difference was found between phosphoric etchant group and control group with respect to shear bond strength. Conclusion. Empress 2 ceramic surface was not etched by phosphoric acid, but etched by hydrofluoric acid.

PURPOSE. The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the adhesion of initial colonizer, Streptococcus sanguis, on resin, titanium and zirconia under the same surface polishing condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Specimens were prepared from Z-250, cp-Ti and 3Y-TZP and polished with $1 {\mu}m$ diamond paste. After coating with saliva, each specimen was incubated with Streptococcus sanguis. Scanning electron microscope, crystal violet staining and measurement of fluorescence intensity resulting from resazurin reduction were performed for quantifying the bacterial adhesion. RESULTS. Surface of resin composite was significantly rougher than that of titanium and zirconia, although all tested specimens are classified as smooth. The resin specimens showed lower value of contact angle compared with titanium and zirconia specimens, and had hydrophilic surfaces. The result of scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that bound bacteria were more abundant on resin in comparison with titanium and zirconia. When total biofilm mass determined by crystal violet, absorbance value of resin was significantly higher than that of titanium or zirconia. The result of relative fluorescence intensities also demonstrated that the highest fluorescence intensity was found on the surface of resin. Absorbance value and fluorescence intensity on titanium was not significantly different from those on zirconia. CONCLUSION. Resin specimens showed the roughest surface and have a significantly higher susceptibility to adhere Streptococcus sanguis than titanium and zirconia when surfaces of each specimen were polished under same condition. There was no significant difference in bacteria adhesion between titanium and zirconia in vitro.

Current composites are made with dimethacrylate monomers and silane-treated silica microfillers, either alone or with silane treated glass fillers The main reasons for clinical failure of dental composites are secondary caries, wear and fracture. Most of practitioner want to get a composite which is more tougher under occlusal stress, less polymerization contraction, and better handling properties in application clinically. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of resin matrix with various flows on the physical proper-ties such as fracture toughness and degree of conversion of the experimental resins. It was hypothesized that flexible or tough resin composites can be designed by judicious choice of monomer composition Various flow resin matrices containing Bis-GMA, UDMA, and TEG-DMA were made by altering the pro-portion of the monomers. After the unfilled resins were light-cured for different light intensity, the fracture toughness(K$_{1c}$) was measured according to ASTM standard using the single edge notched geometry, and degree of conversion(DC) was measured by FTIR. And experimental composites were formulated with variations in the proportion of silanated quartz and strontium glass fillers as 60, 75, and 77wt%. Also, the physical properties of composites with various filer contents were evaluated as same manner. All resulting data were compared by ANOVA/Tukeys test at 0.05 level. The results were as follows; 1. The degree of conversion of high flow resin containing less Bis-GMA was higher than that of low flow unfilled resin 2. While the degree of conversion of unfilled resin was increased according to light intensity for polymerization, there was no significant increase with moderate and high light intensity. Also, the fracture toughness was not increased by high light intensity. 3. The fracture toughness was high in the low flow unfilled resin containing higher contents of Bis-GMA. 4. There was a significant increase for fracture toughness and a tendency for degree of conversion to be reduced when the content of fillers was increased. 5. In the experimental composites, the flow of resin matrix did not affected on the fracture toughness, even, which was decreased as increase of viscosity. These results showed that the physical properties of a dental composite could be attributed to the flow of resin matrix with relative content of monomers. Specific combination of resin monomers should be designed to fulfil the needs of specific indication for use.

Purpose: Cention N (Ivoclar Vivadent) was a recently introduced alkasite-based restorative material that was expected to replace amalgam and glass ionomer cement. This material was an esthetic restoration with adequate mechanical strength and release of fluoride and calcium. The purpose of this study was to measure the water sorption and water solubility of Cention N and evaluate its long-term durability compared to other esthetic restorations (Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer cement [RMGIC], Giomer, Composite Resin). Materials and Methods: Twenty specimens each of Cention N (CN), Resin Modified-Glass Ionomer Cement (FJ), Giomer (BF), and Composite Resin (FZ) were made. After each specimen was completely dried in a desiccator for 24 hours using a vacuum pressure pump, the specimen was weighed (m1). After that, the specimen was immersed in distilled water at 37℃ for 7 days, stored in a drying oven, and weighed (m2). After drying completely for 24 hours in a desiccator, the specimen was weighed (m3) to calculate the water absorption and water solubility using Formulas 1 and 2. The measured values were statistically processed and analyzed using SPSS, and the significance level was set at 0.05. Result: When measuring water sorption, FJ (122.61 ㎍/mm³) showed significantly higher water sorption than CN (35.42 ㎍/mm³) (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between FZ (18.03 ㎍/mm³) and BF (14.76 ㎍/mm³) (P=0.930). When measuring water solubility, CN (6.65 ㎍/mm³) showed significantly higher water solubility than FJ (1.47 ㎍/mm³) (P<0.05). Conclusion: Cention N had lower water sorption than RMGIC, but higher water solubility, indicating that it is more vulnerable to moisture and has lessened long-term durability.

본 실험에서는 자가부식형 접착제와 콤포짓트 레진 사이의 산도의 차이를 완화시킬 수 있는 접착레진을 자가부식형 접착제 위에 추가적으로 도포할 경우, 상아질에 대한 접착력을 개선할 수 있는지를 연구하였다. 자가부식형 접착제로는 실험실에서 직접 제작한 실험용 자가부식형 접착제 (pH: 1.96)와 Adper Prompt (3M ESPE, VSA, pH: 1.0)를 사용하였으며, 중성의 접착레진으로 All-Bond 2의 D/E bonding resin (Bisco Inc., USA, pH: 6.9)을 사용하였다. 두 대조군에서는 두 가지 자가부식형 접착제를 각각 두번씩 도포하였으며, 두 실험군에서는 각 자가부식형 접착제를 한번 도포한 후 그 위에 D/E bonding resin을 추가 도포하였다. Z-250 하이브리드 복합레진을 쌓아올려 모레시계 형태의 시편을 제작하여 미세인장강도를 측정하고 t-test를 이용하여 비교하였다. 파절 양상은 입체현미경과 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다. D/E bonding resin을 추가 도포한 미세 인장접착강도는 유의하게 증가되었고, 접착층과 복합레진 또는 접착층과 상아질 사이의 파절을 보인 시편의 수는 감소하고, 접착층 내의 파절을 보인 시편의 수는 증가되었다. 따라서 자가부식형 접착제와 복합레진의 산도의 차이를 완화할 수 있는 중성의 접착레진을 추가 도포할 경우 미세인장접착강도를 증가시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the survival rate and clinical performance of class 1 composite restorations restored with the Filtek Bulk Fill composite material using either the bulk fill technique or the incremental technique at baseline (1 week) and at 3, 6 and 12 months of follow-up. Materials and Methods: Forty-two patients with at least 2 carious teeth were selected. Following randomization, one tooth was restored with the Filtek Bulk Fill composite using the incremental fill technique, and the other tooth was restored with the same material using the bulk fill technique. Patients were recalled for follow-up at baseline (1 week) and 3, 6, and 12 months and evaluated using the FDI criteria. Results: The data were analyzed using the McNemar χ² test. No statistically significant differences were found between the scores of teeth restored with either technique. At baseline and at 3, 6, and 12 months of follow-up; there were no significant difference in the clinical status of both groups of restorations. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, using the bulk fill technique for restorations with the Filtek Bulk Fill material seems to be equally efficient to using the incremental fill technique.

전통적인 Metal-ceramic 보철 제작 방식으로부터 All-ceramic 보철에 이르기까지 최근 신소재 개발에 영향을 주는 가장 큰 요인은 심미적인 욕구일 것이다. 우리가 사용하는 각각의 치과용 수복 재료는 재료 별로 강도, 인성, 기계 가공의 효율성 및 사용에 필요한 다양한 과정을 기반으로 임상에서 다양하게 사용되고 있다. 예를 들어 Glass ceramic과 같은 단일 소재의 경우 약한 물성을 고려하여 주로 싱글 크라운과 같은 간단한 보철에 사용하고 있으며 상대적으로 높은 파괴 인성을 가진 지르코니아 재료의 경우 싱글 크라운은 물론 브릿지의 제작에도 널리 사용하고 있다. 하지만 지르코니아 재료는 제작 과정에서 긴 Sintering 시간을 필요로 하므로 Chair side에서 빠른 보철물 제작에 쉽지 않은 부분이 있으며 주로 Lab. side에서 사용하고 있다. CAD / CAM 시스템을 이용하여 보철물을 제작하는 용도로 개발 된 Hybrid ceramic 소재는 Resin Nano Hybrid Ceramic이라고도 하며, 개선 된 물성을 포함한 나노 세라믹 요소를 기반으로 하고 있다. 이러한 특징들은 심미적이며 기능적인 보철물의 제작이 용이한 과정과 결과를 보이고 있으며 동시에 향상된 내구성을 바탕으로 보철물의 제작 과정에 유리한 조건들을 가지고 있다. 새로운 Nano Hybrid Ceramic 재료는 Composite Resin과 Glass ceramic과 같은 단일 소재들이 가진 장점들을 이용하여 술자들의 요구사항을 바탕으로 오랜 연구를 통해 개발된 치과 수복 아이템이며 Nano ceramic filler가 혼합된 구조로 되어있어 치과 수복용 복합소재로서 널리 사용하고 있다. 또한 Nano Hybrid Ceramic소재는 Composite resin의 가공 과정에서 쉽게 파절되지 않는 개선된 물성과 Glass ceramic이 가진 심미성 동시에 포함하고 있는 것이 특징이다. 따라서 Chair side와 Lab. side에서 CAD/CAM 시스템을 이용하여 보철물을 제작할 때 임상적용이 쉽고 유용한 장점을 가지고 있어 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

인체 뼈의 주성분인 수산화인회석(hydroxyapatite, HAP)이 충전된 고분자 복합체를 제조하고 이들의 치과적 물성을 분석하여 치과용 수복재료로의 응용성을 확인하고자 하였다. 복합체 제조에 사용된 기질인 아크릴계 단량체는 가시광선으로 경화시켰다. 실험 결과, HAP는 무게비로 65%까지 첨가되었으며 중합깊이는 6.0 mm 정도로서 일반적 치과용 수복재료로의 응용이 가능함을 확인하였다. 제조된 고분자 복합체의 중합전환율은 HHP 첨가량이 늘어날수록 약간 감소하였으며 중합수축률은 HAP 변화량에의 의존성이 거의 없었다. 복합체의 기계적 물성은 HAP함량이 증가할수록 간접인장강도는 증가하였고 굴곡강도는 큰 변화가 없었다. 그러나 그 값들은 치의학에서 규정한 값들을 상회하여 치과용 재료로의 응용 가능성이 매우 높음을 확인할 수 있었다.
