The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical effect of tissue conditioner on polymerized acrylic resins. Surface hardness and transverse strength were measured for evaluating physical effect of tissue conditioner on polymerized acrylic resins. 1) To measured surface hardness, the resin specimens($65{\times}10{\times}10mm$ size) of each resin material were made, applied tissue conditioner, stored in $37^{\circ}C$ water for 1 week, and changed tissue conditioner every week for 3 weeks. Surface hardness was measured every week with Shore hardness tester for 4 weeks. 2) To measured transverse strength, the resin specimens($65{\times}10{\times}3mm$ size & $65{\times}10{\times}1.5mm$) of each resin material were made. The specimens were divided into four groups, and measured by universial testing machine. Group I(control group) : The resin specimens were stored in $37^{\circ}C$ water for 5 weeks. Group II : The resin specimens were stored in $37^{\circ}C$ water for 5 weeks, and relined in 1.5mm thickness with same resin. Group III : The resin specimens were stored in $37^{\circ}C$ water for 1 week, applied tissue conditioner in 1.5mm thickness, stored in $37^{\circ}C$ water for 1 week, changed tissue conditioner and water every week for 3 weeks, removed tissue conditioner, reduced 1.5mm thickness from resin surface which was applied tissue conditioner, and relined in 1.5mm thickness with same resin. The following conclusions were obtained : 1. Surface hardness changes of Vertex RS and Vertex SC were not different significantly(p>0.01). 2. Surface hardness of K-33, Tokuso rebase, and Kooliner were decreased(p<0.01). 3. With the exception of Kooliner, transverse strength of all resin materials between control group and groups which applied with tissue conditioner were not different significantly(p>0.01).
PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to identify in vitro antimicrobial activity of the tissue conditioner containing silver nanoparticles on microbial strains, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Experimental disc samples ($20.0{\times}3.0$ mm) of tissue conditioner (GC Soft-Liner, GC cooperation, Tokyo, Japan) containing 0.1 - 3.0% silver nanoparticles (0%: control) were fabricated. Samples were placed on separate culture plate dish and microbial suspensions (100 ${\mu}L$) of tested strains were inoculated then incubated at $37^{\circ}C$. Microbial growth was verified at 24 hrs and 72 hrs and the antimicrobial effects of samples were evaluated as a percentage of viable cells in withdrawn suspension (100 ${\mu}L$). Data were recorded as the mean of three colony forming unit (CFU) numerations and the borderline of the antimicrobial effect was determined at 0.1% viable cells. RESULTS. A 0.1% silver nanoparticles combined to tissue conditioner displayed minimal bactericidal effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans strains, a 0.5% for fungal strain. Control group did not show any microbial inhibitory effect and there were no statistical difference between 24 hrs and extended 72 hrs incubation time (P > .05). CONCLUSION. Within the limitation of this in vitro study, the results suggest that the tissue conditioner containing silver nanoparticles could be an antimicrobial dental material in denture plaque control. Further mechanical stability and toxicity studies are still required.
Temporary soft liners can be used to prevent chronic soreness from dentures or to aid in its treatment are as adjuncts in tissue conditioning, for temporary obturators, and to stabilize baseplate or surgical stent. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shock absorption properties of several temporary soft denture liners using a free drop test with an accelerometer. The materials tested inclued Coe-comfort, Softone, Tissue conditioner and Viscogel. The specimens were fabricated with the thickness of 1, 2, 3mm and were stored in distilled water at $37^{\circ}C$ for a day, 1, 2, and 3 weeks. Six samples were made with each material for each test condition and the shock-absorbing behavior was evaluated according to material, thickness and duration. The results were as following : 1. Softone of 3mm thickness stored for a day showed the most excellent shock absorbability. 2. The shock absorbing behavior of duration according to materials and thickness showed a day to be the highest and decreased in 1 week, 2 weeks and 3 weeks in that order(p<0.05). And there was no significant difference between durations in Tissue conditioner. 3. The shock absorbability of thickness according to materials and duration showed 3mm to be highest and decreased in the order of 2mm, 1mm(p<0.05). 4.

This study evaluated the linear dimensional changes with the factor of time and thickness using of three commercially available tissue conditioners (Coe-Comport, Visco-Gel, Soft-Liner). The thickness of materials were changed (1.5mm, 3.0mm) and the percentage changes in dimension were measured at 1h(baseline), 12h, 24h, 3 days and 7days after specimen preparation. The obtained data were analyzed by ANOVA with the SAS/PC statistical package. From the results, large differences appear between the various tissue conditioners. The results suggested that the period recommended for forming functional impression would be 36h to 3days after insertion in the mouth. Depending on the type of tissue conditioner over time, as there were significant differences in the elastic change(p<0.05). Tissue conditioner of the 1.5mm, 3.0mm thickness were significantly different by the dimensional stability(p<0.05). Elastic deformation of the ideal itself, and resilient when compared only the look, Visco-Gel 3.0mm group, stability was the most stable volume. In addition, it is important to select tissue conditioners suitable for functional impression because of the wide range of dimensional stability among the materials.
The use of tissue conditioners has come into favor for preprosthetic treatment and the treatment of Denture stomatitis, but the major problem in the use of the tissue conditioner is the growth of C.albicans. To compare the growth of C.albicans according to the type and the wearing period of the tissue conditioner, three commercial tissue conditioners were relined to intraoral plates which were delivered to 14 smoking, 12 nonsmoking healthy men. Cultures were made from the conditioner surface at 2, 7, 14, 21 days after after intraoral placement. The frequency of positive culture and colony counts of C.albicans were measured by imprint culture technique. The following results were achieved : 1. The frequency of positive cluture had increased significantly for all materials used. 2. The frequency of positive culture had incresed significantly around 2,14 days for day for COE-Comfort, SR-Ivoseal. 3. There were no significant difference in the colony counts of C.albicans among the mate rials used. 4. There were an over-all increase with the wearing period of tissue conditioners and significant increase around 2, 7, 14 days for COE-Comfort, and 2, 14 days for SR-Ivoseal, viscogel in colony counts. 5. Smoking had no effect on the growth of C.albicans. That is, there were no difference among the materials used in the growth of C.albicans. In the clinical application of tissue conditioners, we should avoid a long term use of it, but in inevitable cases, special disinfection procedures should be considered.
An experimental study was performed to study the tissue reactions to tissue conditioners in rabbits. Thirty rabbits were divided into three groups, 10, Hydro-cast group, 10, Coe-comfort group, and 10, heat-cured resin group. Tissue conditioners and heat-cured resin were embedded in the oral mucosa of rabbits. The tissue specimens were removed on 3rd, 7th, 14h, 21st and 28th day after embedding and examined under microscope after staining them with H-E stain, Van Gieson's stain, Masson's trichrome stain and PAS reaction. The results were as follows :
1. Tissue reactions to tissue conditioners were somewhat different from each other in the early stage, but, with the increase of the embedding period, the fibrous capsule was thickened in both. These tissue reactions were similar to those to heat-cured resin.
2. Newly formd fibrous components were stained deep-red with Van Gieson's stain and dark-green with Masson's trichrome stain. But their stainability was decreased as collagenous fibers became matured.
3. Newly formed fibrous components showed intense PAS reactivity, but PAS reactivity was reduced as the connective tissue capsule became completed.

Statement of problem: Volume stability, microstructure reproducibility and fluidity along with compatibility with dental stone must be in consideration in order to use tissue conditioner as a material for functional impression. There are few studies concerning the influence of time factor in oral condition on surface roughness of the stone and optimal retention period in the oral cavity considering such changes in surface roughness. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find out the influence of various kinds of tissue conditioner, its powder/liquid ratio and immersion time on surface roughness of the stone. Material and methods: Materials used in this study were the three kinds of tissue conditioners(Coe-Comfort, Visco-Gel, Soft-Liner) and were grouped into three: group R-mixed with standard powder/liquid ratio that was recommended by the manufacturers, group M-mixed with 20% more powder, group L-mixed with 20% less powder. Specimens were made with the size of 20 mm diameter and 2 mm width. Each tissue conditioner specimens were subdivided into 5 groups according to the immersion time(0 hour, 1 day, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days), completely immersed into artificial saliva and were stored under $37^{\circ}C$. Specimens of which the given immersion time elapsed were taken out and were poured with improved stone, making the stone specimens. Surface roughness of the stone specimens was measured by a profilometer. Results: Within the limitation of this study, the following results were drawn. 1. Major influencing factor on surface roughness of the stone model made from tissue conditioner was the retention period(contribution ratio($\rho$)=62.86%, P<.05) of the tissue conditioner in oral cavity to make functional impression. 2. In case of Coe-Comfort, higher mean surface roughness value of the stone model with statistical significance was observed compared to that of Soft-Liner and Visco-Gel as immersion time changes(P<.05). 3. In case of group L(less), higher mean surface roughness value of the stone model with statistical significance was observed compared to that of R(recommended) and M(more) group as immersion time changes(P<.05). Conclusion: We may conclude that as the retention period of time in oral cavity influences surface roughness of the stone model the most and as the kind of tissue conditioner and its P/L ratio may influence also, clinician should well understand the optimal retention period in oral cavity and choose the right tissue conditioner for the functional impression, thus making the functional impression with tissue conditioner usefully.
Tissue conditioners have been used for treatment of denture stomatitis caused by wearing of dentures. Early studies pointed out Candide albicans (C. albicans) as main etiologic factor, and antifugal agents were added for control of the species. But there is a little information about broad comparison on the effect of tissue conditioners and antifungal agents added. The purpose of the present study was to compare the inhibiting effect of four tissue conditioners and one temporary soft liner on the growth of C. albicans for treatment of denture stomatitis using gel diffusion method by measuring diameter of the zone of growth inhibition. Three antifungal agents were added to each material for evaluation of the effect of added agents. Finally, observation was made to evaluate the effect of the loss of antifungal elements by aging of the specimen. The results of this study were obtained as follows : 1. Tempo had remarkable antifungal effect showing the zone of growth inhibition as 2.35 mm at 1st day, and was most effective on End: 4th and 7th day from incubation (p<0.05). But Coecomfort, Dura conditioner, Visco-gel, Coe-soft had little antifungal effect from the 1st day of incubation. 2. Nystatin was most effective showing 9.60-12.04 mm of zone of inhibition at the 1st day from incubation. The antifungal properties were reduced to amphotericin B, chlorhexidine and materials without agent (p<0.05), and the effect was diminished by time. 3. As pretreatment with amphotericin B, nystatin, chlorhexidine, Tempo was very effective at the 1st day from incubation showing zone of inhibition as 3.65, 12.04, 4.78 mm with addition of each agent. Dura conditioner had strongest antifungal effect at the next day as 2.86, 5.33, 1.29 mm of zone of inhibition, and yielding results of Coe-comfort, Tempo, Coe-soft was shown at 4th and 7th day from incubation (p<0.05). Taken all together, tissue conditioners have little antifungal effect except Tempo. Formation of the zone of growth inhibition was due to agents amphotericin B, nystatin, chlorhexidine and nystatin was most effective. Conclusively, it is advisable to select material which is effective on the growth of C. albican and consider addition of antifungal agents for treatment of denture stomatitis.
