Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to determine microstructural changes, etching rates of peritubular dentin, and intertubular dentin recession during demineralization in dilute acidic solutions. These studies have not included many forms of altered dentin, including noncarious sclerotic root dentin associated with Cl V (abfraction) lesions. We sought to determine microstructural changes and recession rates during demineralization in citric acid (pH 2.5, 0.018M) for the transparent/sclerotic zone. Highly polished dentin disks were prepared from teeth with noncarious C1 V lesions (n = 3) and compared with normal root dentin (n = 3). Samples were etched at 5-s intervals for 1 min and at longer intervals up to 30 min. The depth changes in various portions of the dentin with respect to the reference layer were measured and changes in microstructure observed in solution in the wet cell of the AFM. In sclerotic dentin, most tubule lumens were occluded with crystalline deposits that etched more slowly than the other dentin components, but etching rates could not be determined due to their irregular geometry. The intertubular dentin recession quickly reached a plateau after a depth change of <1 microm for all dentin types, in agreement with prior work. Mixed linear regression models indicated an important difference between the etching of sclerotic intertubular dentin and that of non-sclerotic root dentin that became apparent after 600 s (p = 0.037). The sclerotic intertubular dentin underwent less depth change at the plateau (558 nm) compared to normal root dentin (744 nm). In addition, normal root dentin underwent significantly greater recession than coronal dentin (p = 0.002). The results of this study indicate that intertubular sclerotic dentin from Cl V lesions etches differently than normal root dentin, and this may help explain the difficulties in restoring such lesions with current bonding procedures.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Previous studies have shown that provisional cement cannot be completely removed from the dentin surface and the remnants inhibit adhesion of resin cement to dentin. PURPOSE: This study investigated the effects of dentin conditioners on resin-dentin bonding after provisional cement contamination. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 216 bovine dentin specimens were divided into 2 groups with and without provisional cement coating on the dentin surface. Each group was further divided into 3 subgroups with 2 conditioning methods and without dentin conditioning (36 specimens per subgroup). The 2 methods applied were (1) phosphoric acid etching and (2) phosphoric acid etching, followed by sodium hypochlorite gel. Provisional cement was completely removed with a curette before dentin conditioning. Stainless steel rods were luted to dentin surfaces with Panavia 21 resin cement. Tensile bond strengths were measured before and after thermocycling. The dentin surface was analyzed by SEM and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. Three-way ANOVA and Scheffe's comparison test were performed (P =. 05). RESULTS: Bond strength was significantly influenced by provisional cement application, type of dentin conditioning, and thermocycling. Bond strength decreased when treated with provisional cement, but the decreased strengths were restored to their original values or higher by both dentin conditioners used. Specimens treated with sodium hypochlorite gel applied after phosphoric acid etching demonstrated the highest bond strengths with good stability after thermocycling. CONCLUSION: Application of sodium hypochlorite gel after phosphoric acid etching was more effective than etching with phosphoric acid alone to eliminate the inhibitory effect of provisional cement remnants on adhesion between resin cement and dentin.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic effects of composites which employ proprietary self-etching primers or experimental primers containing an antibacterial monomer 12-methacryloyloxydodecylpyridinium bromide (MDPB) on human pulpal cells by in vitro dentine barrier tests. METHODS: Experimental primers were prepared by the addition of MDPB to each of two control proprietary primers at 1, 2 and 5%. Direct and indirect composite specimens were placed using each primer on one side of a dentine disk assembled in a simple pulp chamber device. Human pulp cells were incubated on the other side of the disk. After 48 h of incubation, the uptake of [3H]-thymidine by the cells was compared with that for negative controls using wax. Tests were repeated four times for each material. The diffusion of monomers from each specimen was determined using the same device. RESULTS: The specimens with control primers showed 26-35% reduction in cell activity. There were no significant differences in cytotoxicity between the control and experimental primers-specimens (Kruskal-Wallis test, p > 0.05). 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate at more than 1 mg ml-1 diffused from all specimens and was considered to be the cause of cytotoxic effects. The concentrations of MDPB diffused from the experimental primers-specimens were less than the toxic level, even for 5% MDPB-containing specimens. CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrate that composites employing proprietary self-etching primers produced cytotoxic effects on human pulpal cells in vitro, although the toxicity was not severe. Incorporation of MDPB into a proprietary primer of up to 5% had no significant influence on the cytotoxicity observed.
