Influence of simplified, higher-concentrated sodium ascorbate application protocols on bond strength of bleached enamel
2019
Background Bleaching procedures performed before restorative procedures, due to the oxygen released, affects the quality of bonding restorations. The application of an lower-concentrated antioxidant for one-hour or more can reversal the compromised bonding to bleached enamel, but it was not effective according to the bleaching concentrations applied. The aim of the present study was to evaluate simplified protocol of higher-concentrated sodium ascorbate (35%SA) in bond strength values of enamel bleached with 10%, 16%, 22% carbamide peroxide (CP) or 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP). Material and Methods Three hundred and forty enamel surfaces of 85 human third molars were used, divided into 17 gro…
Reduction of Polymerization Shrinkage Stress and Marginal Microleakage Using Soft-Start Polymerization
2003
Purpose: This study evaluated the influence of a soft-start light-curing exposure on polymerization shrinkage stress and marginal integrity of adhesive restorations. Materials and Methods: Six resin-based composites (Pertac II, Tetric Ceram, Definite, Surefil, Solitaire, and Visio-Molar) were adhesively bonded to a cylindrical cavity (n = 9 per material/light) in a photoelastic material. Visible light-curing was applied using either the standard polymerization mode (800 mW/cm2 exposure duration 40 s) of the curing light (Elipar TriLight, 3M ESPE) or the exponential mode from the same device (ramp-curing: 150 mW/cm2 to 800 mW/cm2 within the first 15 s of a total curing time of 40 s). Polymer…
Effects of elevated hydrogen peroxide 'strip' bleaching on surface and subsurface enamel including subsurface histomorphology, micro-chemical composi…
2007
Abstract Objectives This study examined the effects of elevated concentration hydrogen peroxide tooth whitening treatments on tooth surface and subsurface integrity. Methods Sound human molars were ground and polished to prepare an uniform substrate for bleaching treatments. A cycling treatment included alternating ex vivo human salivary exposures with bleaching treatments under conditions of controlled temperature and durations of treatment. Bleaching was carried out with prototype bleaching strips containing hydrogen peroxide gel at 13% and 16% concentrations. A non-bleached group was used as a control. Treatments included 28 h of total bleaching exposure in vitro . Surface color was meas…
Effect of the intra-alveolar administration of dexamethasone on swelling, trismus, and pain after impacted lower third molar extraction: a randomized…
2021
Background To evaluate the efficacy of intra-alveolar administration of dexamethasone 4 mg in the control of edema, trismus, and pain resulting from the extraction of impacted lower third molars and the drug permeability through the oral mucosa by in silico prediction. Material and Methods The randomized, double-blind, split-mouth clinical trial included patients who had both impacted lower third molars in equivalent positions. Hemiarches were divided into control side when dexamethasone was administered orally and experimental side when dexamethasone was administered using the intra-alveolar route. Patients were evaluated considering edema, trismus, and pain. The permeability of dexamethas…
The Frequency of taurodontism in the Turkish population
2011
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and degree of taurodontism in a group of Turkish adult dental patients. Study design: A retrospective study was performed using panoramic radiography of 490 patients ranging in age from 18 to 65. These patients were analyzed for taurodontism. Descriptive characteristics of sex, jaws, and localization were recorded. The data was analyzed using the Pearson chi-square test. Results: Taurodontism was detected in 22.8% of patients and 4.2% of the teeth examined. Anomalies were found in 22.2% of females compared with 23.8% of males. However, no significant difference was found between the genders (p > 0.05). Taurodontism was more dist…
Bond strength and elemental analysis of oxidized dentin bonded to resin modified glass ionomer based restorative material
2019
Background This study aimed to investigate the influence of hesperidin application on the bonding of resin-modified glass ionomer-based restorative material to dentin treated with oxygen-induced endodontic irrigants. Material and Methods One hundred human permanent molars were categorized into five groups (n= 20/group), treated with various irrigants as follows: Group C; distilled water (control group), Group SH; 5.25% NaOCl, Group SH+H; 5.25% NaOCl + 5 % hesperidin, Group HP; 10% H2O2, Group HP+H; 10% H2O2 + 5 % hesperidin. Specimens were bonded with RMGI based restorative material. For each group, half of the specimens were evaluated for µSBS by a universal testing machine and the other h…
Assessment of shear bond strength and microleakage of fissure sealant following enamel deproteinization : an in vitro study
2020
Background To evaluate the effect of two different deproteinizing agents (5.25% sodium hypochlorite and Papacarie®) prior to acid etching on the shear bond strength and microleakage of a fissure sealant material. Material and methods A total of 123 extracted noncarious human third molar teeth were randomly divided into three groups for each test: acid etching alone (control) (C), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), and Papacarie Duo® (PC). The shear bond strength tests were performed using a universal testing machine, and microleakage was evaluated using a dye penetration method. Results The mean shear bond strength values obtained in Group C were significantly lower than those of Group NaOCl and …
Influence of the volume of restorative material on the concentration of stresses in the restorative interface.
2020
Background To evaluate the microtensile strength in the adhesive interface depending on the volume of the composite resin used to restore class I cavities. Material and Methods Forty-eight human third molars received a standardized class I cavity preparation and they were separated into six experimental groups: G1 - single-bottle adhesive system; G2 - bonding system with load; G3 - single-bottle adhesive associated with low-viscosity composite resin; G4 - loaded adhesive associated with low-viscosity composite; G5 - resin-modified glass ionomer associated with single-bottle adhesive; and G6 - resin-modified glass ionomer associated with loaded adhesive. All cavities were restored with a uni…
Durability of solvent-free one-step self-etch adhesive under simulated intrapulpal pressure
2015
Background: There are different solvents presented in simplified adhesives. Bond-1 SF has been developed, which contains neither water nor organic solvents, in order to eliminate technical issues in terms of evaporation of solvents and concerns for the durability of resin-dentin bond. Thus this study was conducted to evaluate the microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of solvent-free and ethanol-based one-step self-etch adhesives to dentin under simulated intrapulpal pressure (IPP). Material and Methods: Occlusal surfaces of human molars were prepared to expose mid-dentin depth. Bond-1SF Solvent-Free SE [SF] and Adper TM easy one [AE] adhesives were applied on dentin specimens. Resin composite b…
The effect of bacterial cellulose nanocrystals on the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer cement to dentin
2020
Background The present study aimed to investigate the effect of bacterial cellulose nanocrystals (BCNC) on the shear bond strength (SBS) of resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) to dentin. Material and Methods A total of 48 freshly extracted intact third molars were randomly divided into four main groups with three different concentrations (0.3%, 0.5% and 1% wt) of BCNC with RMGIC and control group without BCNC. These specimens were kept in distilled water at 37° C for 24h. Shear bond strength was examined, using the universal testing machine. Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn`s post-hoc test were applied for analysis of data. P<0.05 was considered as the level of significance. Results The…
