Scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) was used in the burst mode at 400 MHz, nominal lateral resolution 2.5 microm, to study the micromechanical properties of the dentin/adhesive interface. Corresponding specimens from the same tooth were investigated using mu Raman spectroscopy, light microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy.12 The elastic moduli of the components of the dentin/adhesive interface were determined by comparing the recorded acoustic impedance values to a calibration curve generated on standard materials. The standard materials, which include polypropylene, Teflon, PMMA, pyrex glass, aluminum, titanium, and stainless steel, provide the appropriate range of acoustic impedance values. The elastic moduli of the components of the dentin/adhesive interface are: partially demineralized dentin, 13 Gpa; mineralized dentin, 28 GPa; adhesive, 5.0 GPa; and unprotected protein at the interface < 2.0 GPa.

In this study, N-isopropyl, N-methacryloxyethyl methacrylamide (NIMM) is proposed as a possible reactive diluent in place of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) for dental resin mixtures. Real-time infrared spectroscopy was used to monitor the double-bond conversion as a function of irradiation time, and mixtures of 50/50wt% bis-GMA/NIMM were found to reach final conversions (95%) that were 1.5 times greater than bis-GMA/TEGDMA (65%) under visible light irradiation. In addition, samples cured to these conversions were tested with dynamic mechanical analysis. The bis-GMA/NIMM mixture (100% converted) was found to have a higher glass transition temperature and modulus at body temperature than a comparable bis-GMA/TEGDMA mixture (60% converted). Finally, the water sorption and solubility of bis-GMA/NIMM were determined to be higher than the bisGMA/TEGDMA comparison, but the values were still within the range of the ISO 9000s standard. These results suggest that bis-GMA/NIMM mixtures are a viable alternative to conventional dental resins since a greater degree of monomer conversion is obtainable without sacrificing physical and mechanical properties.
