RESUMO

Objective: To analyze the marginal adaptation of two different Glass Ionomer Cements (GIC) after erosive challenges. Material and Methods: Sixty sound extracted primary canines were selected and class V cavities were made. Teeth were allocated into 6 groups according to restorative material: 1) high-viscosity GIC (Ketac™Molar Easymix) and 2) resin-modified GIC with nanoparticles (Ketac™N100), low pH beverage erosive challenge (Orange juice and Coca-Cola) or distilled water as control. Thereafter the sample was restored and subjecting to thermocycling. The sample was immersed for a 10-days period for the erosive simulation and then embedded in methylene blue solution during 4 hours. Finally teeth were sectioned for further analysis. Marginal adaptation test was performed by two trained examiners using the Salama et al. criteria. Descriptive and Kruskal-Wallis test (α=5%) were used to analyze the data. Results: The groups treated with Ketac™Molar EasyMix were similar in terms of marginal sealing ability when submitted to Orange juice and Coca-Cola but significantly worse than water. For samples restored with the Ketac™N100 the worst results were found in the Coca-Cola group. Conclusion: Erosive challenges with acidic drinks affected the marginal adaptation of the tested GIC.

RESUMO

AIM: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the leakage of bleaching agents through 3 different bases into the obturated pulp space and dentinal tubules in intra coronal bleaching. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifty-five freshly extracted, intact non-carious single rooted teeth were collected and stored in formalin until used. The specimen divided into experimental and control group. Experimental group were further subdivided into 3 subgroups on the base of cervical base materials. Group I was Type II GIC, Group II was Fuji II LC and Group III was Hybrid composite. The control groups was divides into negative group (received the bleaching agent and received complete external coating including access cavity) and positive control group (did not receive any external coating). The obturated pulp space were removed at a level of 3 mm below the cemento enamel junction and filled with dry cotton pellets and temporized with temporary cement, stored at ± 37°C and 100% relative humidity for five days, the bleaching material were placed in the pulp chamber (a paste of sodium perborate i.e. 0.15g and 30% hydrogen peroxide 0.05ml), and then stored for 3 days in an incubator. Later on the teeth were immersed in India ink dye and stored at ± 37°C and 100% relative humidity for 5 days. Specimens were examined under binocular microscope with a stage micrometer to analyze the degree of dye penetration. RESULTS: The minimal leakage values were observed with type II glass ionomer cement followed by light cure glass ionomer cement and lastly by hybrid composite. CONCLUSION: The present invitro investigation evaluated the microleakage observed with different cervical base materials during non-vital bleaching procedures.

RESUMO

AIM: Present study was conducted to compare the effect of topical fluoride agents on color change of three aesthetic restorative materials. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Restorative material used were Ketac Fill type II (GIC), Filtek Z350(Composite) and Beuttifull II (Giomer). Topical Fluorides used were Pascal (1.23% APF gel) and Fluoride Varnish (Bifluoride). 24 samples of each restorative material were prepared, which were divided into 8 each, among three groups. Treatment of Group A with APF gel, Group B with Varnish was done and Group C with distilled water which was used as a control, followed by immersing of samples in artificial saliva for 48 hr. Samples were then subjected to colorimetric analysis. Data collected was statistically analysed using one way ANOVA and Tukys Post Hoc Test. RESULTS: GIC showed statistically significant change in color in both APF and Varnish group compared to composite and Giomer after 48 hr. CONCLUSION: Present study concludes that Topical fluoride agents have detrimental effect on color of aesthetic restorative materials. Giomer was least effected out of the three restorative materials and this can be used as alternative to other restorative material.
