[Resistance of cavity walls of composite filled teeth].

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether etching, bonding and filling with composite a cavity increase tooth resistance to fracture, considering that in posterior teeth stressed cusps are likely to bend. MOD conservative cavities (isthmus width/intercuspal distance = 0.25) were made in 10 extracted upper premolars, filled with P30 (3M) and tested by using a MTS machine. A metal bar (5 mm in diameter and 10 mm in length) was employed to load the cusps and their fracture resistance was recorded. The control group consisted of 16 extracted upper premolars: MOD cavities were made in only 9 teeth, then filled with amalgam. As a result, MOD cavities treated with Scotchbond, filled with P30 and tested by a MTS machine don't seem to be more resistant to a static load than cavities filled with amalgam.

In vivo effect of oral environment on etched enamel: a scanning electron microscopic study.

After etching the enamel in teeth of young children with 50% buffered phosphoric acid and allowing the teeth to remain in the oral environment for a few months, an irregular enamel surface similar to the morphology of recently etched enamel was noted by means of scanning electron microscopy. In addition, the enamel surfaces were covered with plaque. Accordingly, observations by other authors, that etched human enamel takes on a normal appearance after short exposure in the oral cavity, could not be confirmed. However, when the surface of the etched enamel was pumiced, the enamel reacquired both the shine and appearance of non-etched enamel.

[Enamel etching for conservative dental treatment].

The enamel etching technique has contributed towards better retention and smaller cavities, and towards less microfissures at the cavity margins. The different etching acids and their concentration are described, and their function illustrated by EM photographs. Phosphoric acid of a concentration between 37 and 50% seems to give the best results. The morphology of the etched surface and the measurements of the degree of adhesion of different composites suggest that the use of bonding agents is not imperative. The practical indications for the etching technique in the dental office are described.
