The Effect of New Generation Self-etch Adhesives on the Quality of Composite Restorations
SamojetkajuÄi dentin adhezivi uvedeni su u praksu kako bi se uklonilo nanocurenje, izbjegla uporaba vlaže tehnike, reducirao broj koraka u aplikaciji adheziva. Na tržiÅ”tu trenutaÄno postoje samojetkajuÄi adhezivi koji se apliciraju u jednom ili dva koraka. Cilj je ove studije da usporedi utjecaj 2 samojetkajuÄa adheziva nove generacije: Prompt L Pop (samojetkajuÄi primer-bond agent, sve u jednom koraku) i AdheSE (samojetkajuÄi primer-bonding agentdva koraka) na kakvoÄu kompozitnih ispuna treÄe klase. kompozitni aterijal upotrijebljen u ovoj studiji bio je Tetric Ceram Ivoclar Vivadent. Uzorak u ovoj studiji Äini 60 kompozitnih ispuna treÄe klase, raÄenih na djeci u dobi od 12-16 g. Kod 30 ispuna uporabljen je adheziv Prompt L Pop proizvoÄaÄa #M ESPE, a kod drugih 30 ispuna kao adheziv uporabljen je AdheSE proizvoÄaÄa Ivoclar Vivadent. Za procijenu kompozitnih restauracija primijenjeni su USPHS kriteriji (A-idealno, B-prihvatljivo, Cneprihvatljivo) za sljedeÄe parametre: postoperativna osjetljivost, boja ispuna, marginalna diskoloracija, marginalna adaptacija, anatomaski oblik ispuna i postojanje karijesa. Vrjednovanje je provedeno nakon tri i Å”est mjeseci.
Rezultati nisu pokazali statistiÄki znatnu razliku u kakvoÄi ispuna, bez obzira na vrstu upotrijebljenog adheziva.Self-etch adhesives are introduced in clinical practice with the aim of eliminating nanoleakage, avoiding of wetbond technique and reducing the numerous bonding steps. There are two kinds of self-etch adhesives available on the market today: those that are applied in one and in two steps.
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of two self-etch adhesives: Prompt L Pop (Self-etch Primer/Bonding agent-one step) and AdheSE (Self-etch Primer-Bonding agent-two steps) an the quality of Class III composite fillings.
Composite filling material used in this study was Tetric Ceram Ivoclar Vivadent.
The sample in this study comprises 60 Class III composite fillings, placed in children aged 12-16 years. Out of these, in 30 cases Prompt L Pop 3M ESPE was applied, and in the other 30 fillings, AdheSE Ivoclar Vivadent was used.
For the evaluation of composite fillings USPHS criteria were used (A ideal; B-acceptable; C-unacceptable) for following paramaters: postoperative sensitivity, color match, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, anatomic form and recurrent caries. The evaluations were performed after 3 and 6 months.
Results showed no statistical difference in clinical appearance of fillings irrespective of which adhesive was used
Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy Investigation of the Penetration of Adhesives and Sealant Resins Into Fissures
Proces zalijevanja fisura u idealnim bi uvijetima trebao potpuno sprijeÄiti prodor mokroarganizama u duboke jamice i fisure. UtvrÄeno je da zaljevaÄi sada dostupni na tržiÅ”tu ne prodiru uvijek i potpuno u duboke i srednje duboke fisure tipa I (oblika pukotine) ili IK tipa (oblika ampula). S obzirom na nisku viskoznost i izvrsno vlaženje postojeÄih dentin adheziva, oni se upotrebljavaju u kombinaciji sa zaljevaÄima fisura da bi se poboljÅ”ala kvaliteta veze izmeÄu zaljevaÄa i cakline.
Svrha ove ekspeimentalne studije bila je ispitati postoji li moguÄnost poboljÅ”anja penetracije zaljevaÄa u fisure humanih molara, u kombinaciji s dentin adhezivima.
Istraživanje je provedeno na 20 izvaÄenih intaktnih ljudskih molara i premolara. ÄiÅ”Äenje je uÄinjeno zraÄnim polirajuÄim ureÄajem 60 sekundi. Eksperimentalna grupa od 10 uzoraka tretirana je s dentin adhezivom Prime&Bond NT i zaljevaÄem fisura Dyrect Seal. Kontrolna skupina (10 zuba takoÄer) tretirana je samo sa zaljevaÄem fisura Dyrect seal. Tretirani uzorci rezani su na režnjeve debljine 700 mikrometara (ukupno 53 komada), usporedno sa zubnom osovinom. Vrjednovanje je provedeno s konfokalnim laserskim mikroskopom.
Rezultati eksperimentalne skupine pokazuju da je 12 dubokih fisura potpuno punjeno, 9 nije bilo punjeno potpuno, 9 je bilo punjeno s postojanjem mjehuriÄa zraka, a jedna Å”iroka fisura bila je punjena potpuno. Rezultati kontrolne skupine pokazuju da je 6 dubokih fisura potpuno punjeno, 19 nije punjeno, 5 je punjeno s postojanjem mjehuriÄa zraka i 6 Å”irokih fisura je punjeno potpuno. Uporabljen je Hi-kvadrat test za statistiÄku raÅ”Älambu sa stupnjem korekcije p = 0,0465. To znaÄi da postoji znatna razlika izmeÄu kontrolne i eksperimentalne skupine.
Uporaba dentin adheziva u metodi zalijevanja fisura ima odreÄene prednosti u usporedbi s standardnom metodom zalijevanja fisura.The process of fissure sealing should ideally avoid the delivery of any microorganism subtrate into the depths of plaque-retentive pits and fissures. Up to now, available sealing materials have been found to not always completely penetrate to the bottom of deep and medium deep fissures of type I (slit-like) or type IK (ampoule-like). Due to the low viscosity and exellent wetting properties of current dentin adhesive systems, they were used in combination with sealant materials in order to improve the filling of fissures.
The purpose of this experimental study was to evaluate whether penetration by filled sealing materialsinto fissures of human molars could be improved by combining them with enamel-dentin adhesives.
The investigation was carried out on 20 extracted clinically caries-free, human premolars and molars. Cleaning was carried out with an air polishing device for 60 seconds. In the test groups, each containing ten teeth, a two material combination of an enamel-dentin adhesive (Prime&Bond NT) and a filled sealing resin was used to seal the fissures (Dyrect SEal). In the control groups (ten teeth) only the filled sealing material without an initial adhesive was applied. The scaled teeth were sectioned into slices of 700 micrometers in thickness (totla of 53 slices), parallel to the tooth axis. Evaluation under CLSM was carred out.
In the experimental group, 12 deep fissures were completely filled, 9 were not filled, 9 were filled with bubbles of air, 1 wide fissure was filled. In the control group, 6 deep fissures were filled, 19 were not filled, 5 were filled with the bubbles of air and 6 wide fisures were filled. We used Chi-sqouare test as a statistic method and later Yatcs correction p = 0.0465. Differences between the control and experimental group are significant.
Use of enamel-dentin-adhesive system in fissure sealing have some advantages
Early childhood caries in preschool children of Kosovo - a serious public health problem
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Even though it has been widely studied, early childhood caries (ECC) remains a serious public health problem, especially in countries where there is no national program of oral health assessment and no genuine primary oral health care, such as in Kosovo. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of ECC and analyze caries risk factors.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>The subjects were 1,008 preschool children, selected by stratified random cluster sampling, in the municipality of Prishtina, capital of Kosovo. Data were collected through clinical examination and interviews. Dmft data were recorded according to WHO criteria. Bacterial examination (CRT bacteria test) and plaque test of Greene-Vermillion were used.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>The mean dmft of preschool children was found to be 5.8. The prevalence of ECC was 17.36%, with a mean dmft of 11 Ā± 3.6. Streptococcus mutans prevalence in ECC children was 98%. A significant correlation between dmft and S mutans counts (ā„10<sup>5 </sup>CFU/mL saliva) was demonstrated. A correlation was also found between daily sweets consumption and dmft in children with ECC (<it>P </it>< 0.001). Comparing the dmft of ECC children and duration of bottle feeding showed a statistical correlation (<it>P </it>< 0.001). The mean plaque test was 1.52. None of the examined children had ever used fluoride.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>The prevalence of ECC was high among preschool children in the municipality of Kosovo. We recommend increasing parents' knowledge of proper feeding habits and oral health practices, and increasing preschool children's accessibility to dental services.</p
Factors that Determine Child Behavior during Dental Treatment
In this review paper we wanted to summarize all the aspects which could affect the behavior of the child patients in the dental office. At the beginning, the factors that are related to the child patients are mentioned. Various segments of child psychological, cognitive, physiological and other kinds of development are discussed. Also, the reasons for dental fear and anxiety (DFA) and dental behavior problems (DBP) were analyzed, and how the child dental patients could cope with them. Finally, types of patients according to their behavior in the dental office were discussed. Furthermore, the influences of child patientsā parents were studied, including parenting styles, as well as factors related to dentist, dental team and the dental office. Finally, critical evaluation of administration of assets to measure the presence of DFA and DBP is provided. Every part of the text was corroborated by the results from our own and other authorsā recent bibliography data
