Comparison of in-vitro bond strengths between resin-modified glass ionomer, polyacid-modified composite resin, and giomer adhesive systems.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this in-vitro study was to compare the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets bonded to tooth enamel with 4 adhesives: a commercially available giomer material, a polyacid-modified composite resin (PMCR), a resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI), and a standard resin-based composite (RBC) adhesive. MATERIALS: Eighty extracted human molars were collected and divided into 4 groups (n = 20). Two stainless steel premolar brackets were bonded to each tooth with 1 of the 4 adhesives, according to each manufacturers' instructions. One bracket was tested for shear bond strength at 1 hour and the other at 7 days. A shear force was applied to the bracket/tooth interface with a chisel-shaped rod attached to a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5-mm per minute until bracket failure. The force in newtons was recorded. Debonded enamel surfaces were examined under a stereomicroscope to assess the amount of residual adhesive. RESULTS: A 2-factor analysis of variance detected significant differences among adhesive types and time of load test. The Tukey HSD test determined that the RBC and the RMGI adhesives had significantly higher shear bond strength than the giomer and the PMCR materials at both 1 hour and 7 days. The chi-square test detected a significant difference in adhesive remnant index scores. The bracket/resin interface was the most common site of failure for all groups except the RMGI group. CONCLUSIONS: RMGI orthodontic cement provides acceptable bond strength in vitro. Further clinical research is needed to validate this laboratory finding.

Adhesion of resin-modified glass ionomer cements using resin bonding systems.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the in vitro shear bond strength of two commercially available resin-modified glass ionomer cements (RmGIC) to bovine dentine, with and without the use of adhesive bonding systems. METHODS: Ninety-six flat bovine dentine surfaces were divided into eight groups for bonding procedures. Fuji II LC and Vitremer were bonded to dentine that had been treated with and without Clearfil Photo Bond, Clearfil Liner Bond, or Clearfil Liner Bond II. The control group consisted of specimens that were treated as recommended by the manufacturer of each resin-modified glass ionomer cement. The bonded assemblies were stored in tap water for 24 h at 37 degrees C, and shear bond strengths measured using a universal-testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. RESULTS: For the control group, shear bond strength of Fuji II LC was significantly greater than Vitremer (P < 0.005). However, when any of the resin bonding systems was applied, no statistical difference between Fuji II LC and Vitremer was determined (P > 0.05). The Clearfil PhotoBond and Liner Bond groups showed similar bond strengths (P > 0.05), but were significantly less than Liner Bond II (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: A recent bonding system combined with the RmGICs exhibited the greatest shear bond strength to dentine, irrespective of chemical differences that may exist between the two RmGICs.

Comparative assessment of light-cured resin-modified glass ionomer and composite resin adhesives: in vitro study of a new adhesive system.

The ideal adhesive system is one that prevents decalcifications and has sufficient bond strength to withstand untimely impact forces on bonded brackets. The purpose of this investigation was to study and compare the bond strengths and adhesive remnant indexes of light-cured resin-modified glass ionomer and conventional resin adhesives. A new light-cured resin-modified glass ionomer adhesive was compared with the conventional adhesive systems. The effects of the new adhesive, with a system of etching and using adhesive promoters on the tooth enamel, as well as microetching the brackets, were analyzed. Comparisons were made (analysis of variance and the Tukey method) between this and other adhesive systems. The new adhesive system is indicated where prevention of decalcification and increased bond strength in noncompliant patients are indicated.

Fluoride release and uptake by aged resin-modified glass ionomers and a polyacid-modified resin composite.

Little has been reported of the relationship of fluoride release and weight loss, and the effects of use of different fluoride agents on restorations, for the new generation of glass ionomer cements. The objectives of this study were to compare fluoride release of fresh and aged specimens of a polyacid-modified resin composite (Dyract), and of three resin-modified glass ionomer cements (Fuji II LC, Photac-Fil, Vitremer); and to correlate fluoride release and weight loss of aged specimens after recharging with three different fluoride agents. All materials showed high initial fluoride release immediately after uptake when using the agents. However, the levels of fluoride release dropped rapidly soon afterwards. Although initial fluoride release was significantly different between Dyract and the three resin-modified glass ionomers, when different fluoride agents were used on aged specimens after recharging, no significant differences were found after the first few hours. Linear regression analyses also showed no correlation between cumulative fluoride release and weight loss. Possible beneficial oral health effects may only be expected by frequent exposure of these materials to fluoride agents.

Clinical comparison between a resin-reinforced self-cured glass ionomer cement and a composite resin for direct bonding of orthodontic brackets Part 1: Wetting with water.

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical performance of a resin-reinforced self-cured glass ionomer cement to a standard composite resin in a split mouth design, by using both systems for direct bonding of orthodontic stainless steel brackets in every patient. Forty eight patients (34 females and 14 males, of which 29 were adults > 18 years of age) with fixed appliances were followed for a mean period of 10 months (range 4-16 months). The performance of 864 stainless steel brackets was evaluated: 404 brackets were bonded with GC Fuji Ortho glass ionomer cement (GC Industrial, Tokyo, Japan) onto teeth soaked with water, and 460 were bonded with System 1+ composite resin (Ormco, Glendora, CA). System 1+ recorded an overall failure rate (18.2%) significantly higher (p < 0.05) than GC Fuji Ortho (7.9%). There were no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) between the failure rates in the upper and lower arches with either material. Both in the upper and lower arches, System 1+ exhibited a failure rate significantly higher (p < 0.05) than GC Fuji Ortho. When the bonding performance of the six anterior teeth was compared with first and second premolars, no statistically significant differences were found (p > 0.05) between bonding agents in either arch. System 1+ exhibited a failure rate significantly higher (p < 0.05) than GC Fuji Ortho, both in the anterior and posterior segments. Both bonding agents failed mainly at the enamel-adhesive interface, without causing any damage to the enamel.

Two-year clinical performance of a polyacid-modified resin composite and a resin-modified glass-ionomer restorative material.

This study compared the clinical performance of a polyacid-modified resin composite and a resin-modified glass-ionomer restorative material over two years. Thirty-four pairs of restorations of Compoglass and Fuji II LC were placed in caries-free cervical erosion/abfraction lesions without tooth preparation. Restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months using modified Ryge/USPHS criteria. A significantly higher incidence of failed restorations was found with the polyacid-modified resin composite (p < 0.05).

Fluoride release from a polyacid-modified resin composite and 3 resin-modified glass-ionomer materials.

OBJECTIVES: The purposes of this study were to compare the fluoride ion release from a freshly mixed polyacid-modified resin composite, or "compomer" (Dyract), and 3 resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (Fuji II LC, Photac-Fil, and Vitremer) and to compare the use of 3 units for measuring fluoride release. METHOD AND MATERIALS: Five specimens (3.0 x 2.7 mm) of each material were prepared. The specimens were placed in polypropylene vials with 2 mL of deionized water and stored at 37 degrees C. The solutions were replaced weekly and the levels of fluoride ions were analyzed at days 1, 7, and 30 and subsequently every 28 days for 253 days. Fluoride measurements were carried out using a fluoride ion-selective electrode connected to a pH ion-selective electrode meter. Fluoride ion release was measured in parts per million, micrograms per square centimeter, and micrograms per cubic millimeter. RESULTS: Fuji II LC, Photac-Fil, and Vitremer showed high initial release values, which decreased exponentially and then showed a slow decline during the ensuing time. Dyract released significantly less fluoride ions during the first 84 days than did the 3 resin-modified glass-ionomer cements and maintained this low level of release throughout the study period. The amounts of fluoride ion release measured at any time interval varied with the units of measurement chosen, but the pattern of release remained the same. CONCLUSION: There was a wide variation in the amounts of fluoride ions released from related products, but the patterns of release were similar and unaffected by the units of measurement used.

Bile Salt Anion Sorption by Polymeric Resins: Comparison of a Functionalized Polyacrylamide Resin with Cholestyramine.

Cholestyramine and a cross-linked polyacrylamide resin with lateral alkyl quaternary ammonium groups (QPDA12) were used to study their ability to bind several bile salt anions (including the cholate, glycocholate, taurocholate, and chenodeoxycholate), individually and competitively, from phosphate buffer solutions at room temperature. The latter resin showed high affinities for all the bile salt anions examined, while cholestyramine exhibited a high affinity only for the more hydrophobic chenodeoxycholate. However, for the binding with cholestyramine, cooperative effects were more pronounced, leading to the enhancement of sorption at higher concentrations. The Langmuir equation and its modified versions were used in the interpretation of both individual and competitive binding of bile salts. The data from competitive binding studies indicated that the presence of the tightly bound chenodeoxycholate did not significantly diminish the ability of QPDA12 resin to bind cholate. However, for cholestyramine, the sorption of chenodeoxycholate increased the relative binding affinity for the more hydrophilic cholate, revealing a novel "cooperative" effect involving different bile salt anions. The latter results suggest that the observed higher affinity of QPDA12 is brought about predominantly through the hydrophobic interactions with the pendant alkyl groups rather than with the resin backbone.

Effectiveness of resin-coated gutta-percha cones and a dual-cured, hydrophilic methacrylate resin-based sealer in obturating root canals.

The introduction of a polybutadiene-diisocyanate-methacylate resin-coating of gutta-percha enables the polyisoprene to be chemically coupled to methacrylate-based resin root canal sealers. This study examined the effectiveness of using passively fitting cones of this type of gutta-percha with a dual-cured version of EndoREZ sealer in obturating cleaned and shaped root canals. The hydrophilic nature of the sealer enabled the creation of an extensive network of 800 to 1200 mum long sealer resin tags after removal of the endodontic smear layer. Although no adhesive was employed, thin hybrid layers in root dentin were observed when EDTA was used as the final rinse. Nevertheless, interfacial gaps and silver leakage could be observed along the sealer-dentin interfaces that might be attributed predominantly to polymerization shrinkage of the sealer. Gaps and silver leakage were also identified between the gutta-percha resin-coating and the sealer.

Toothbrush abrasion of paint-on resins for shade modification and crown resins: effect of water absorption.

In order to investigate the clinical application of paint-on resins, the effect of water absorption on toothbrush abrasion and light transmittance of ten crown resins including three paint-on resins was examined. Water absorption into each material ranged from 0.29 to 0.89 mg/cm2 after storage in distilled-water for 6 weeks and their hardnesses decreased by 3.5-22.3%. Maximum surface roughness (Rmax) of the materials stored in distilled water for 6 weeks increased with an increasing number of toothbrush abrasion cycles and ranged from 1.9 to 10.5 microm after 100,000 cycles. Also, Maximum depth and weight loss as an indicator of the amount of each material lost by abrasion showed similar behaviors similar to Rmax. These results indicated that the abrasion resistance of paint-on resins was located in the middle among all materials examined.

Long-term effects of four extraction media on the fluoride release from four polyacid-modified composite resins (compomers) and one resin-modified glass-ionomer cement.

It was the aim of the present experiments to evaluate the fluoride leaching of four compomers and one resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (gic) into aqueous media over a 1-year period. Various extraction/equilibrium solutions were applied to simulate important intraoral parameters. Specimens of Dyract, Compoglass F, F2000, one experimental compomer, and the resin-modified gic Fuji II LC were stored for 366 days in distilled water (I), acidic medium (pH 4.2) (II), neutral medium (pH 7.0) (III), or solution III supplemented with 1.6 u/mL porcine liver esterase (IV). Equilibrium media were changed and fluoride concentration was measured every 48 h (first 30 d), thereafter each week (twice), then every 14 d (three times), and finally every 28 d up to a total period of 1 year. Data were statistically analyzed for significant differences by means of Scheffe' tests (p < 0.05). The gic and the compomers leached significantly more fluoride into the acidic solution in the initial phase compared to the other media (p < 0.05). Cumulative fluoride release from all materials (except experimental compomer) was elevated because of esterase activity (p <0.05). Measurable but low quantities of fluoride were segregated into all media during the 1-year period. But no significantly different long-term fluoride release into the various media from the investigated materials was found. The data indicate that plaque-associated organic acids or salivary hydrolases may increase initial fluoride release from resin-modified gics or compomers in the oral cavity. Because long-term fluoride release from all materials decreased to low concentrations within a 30-day period, their caries preventive effect remains questionable.

Analysis of 99mTc-pyridoxylidene-glutamate complex formation and its preparation with tin-adsorbed-resin: Sn-Resin kit method.

99mTc-Pyridoxylidene-glutamate (Tc-PG) was introduced in 1975 by Baker et al. as a cholescintigraphic agent. Nevertheless its routine use has been limited due to the autoclaving process involved. To shorten the labeling procedure, an analysis of Tc-PG complex formation using the stannous chloride method was carried out. Sn-Resin (stannous ion adsorbed onto cation exchange resin) was used for labeling a stable Tc-PG with high efficiency. A preautoclaved complex of pyridoxal and glutamate was required but the labeling procedure took only 10-15 min after the elution of 99m-TcO4- from the generator. Formation of a complex other than a 99mTc-complex of the Schiff -base ligand pyridoxylidene-glutamate is discussed. The new formulation of a Tc-PG kit (Sn-Resin) simplified the labeling method and reproducible data to that already reported by Baker was obtained in chromatographic studies. Its suitability in hospital departments has already been shown in clinical studies.

Cast metal resin-bonded dental restorations: effect on the resin-to-metal bond of storage conditions before cementation.

Cast metal resin-bonded restorations are often stored in the laboratory or dental practice/office before they are fitted in the mouth. This study investigated the effect of the storage conditions of such restorations on the tensile bond strength of a resin cement. Sixty cylinders were cast in nickel-chromium alloy (Wiron 88). Their bonding surfaces were sandblasted, cleaned ultrasonically in distilled water, and air dried. Groups of 10 cylinders were stored for 10 days in an office environment as follows: in an open container, in a sealed polyethylene bag, in a plastic pot, in distilled water, or in acetone. A control group was used immediately for bonding. Each cylinder was bonded with a thin film of resin (Panavia Ex) to a freshly prepared disk of the same alloy. After 24 hours in water at 37 degrees C, the assembly was loaded under tension to failure. The results indicated that storage in an open container should be avoided and that restorations can best be protected by storage in distilled water.

Comparative study of the physical properties of a polyacid-modified composite resin and a resin-modified glass ionomer cement.

OBJECTIVES: The physical properties of the resin-modified composite resin Dyract (Detrey Dentsply) and the resin-modified glass ionomer cement Fuji II LC (GC) were compared, and the effect of water sorption on these properties was studied. METHODS: Compressive, diametral compressive and flexural strengths were measured using specimens aged up to three months. The Vickers hardness and the water erosion were also determined. The specimens were stored at 37 degrees C under five different conditions, chosen to vary the water sorption of the samples. The results were analyzed using a multi-factor analysis of variance. RESULTS: Dry specimens of Dyract and Fuji II LC showed similar properties. However, the two materials behaved differently when stored in presence of water. In contrast to Fuji II LC, Dyract showed very little expansion for the first 24 h (1.5 +/- 0.3 and 0.03 +/- 0.01%, respectively), leached small quantities of ions and retained its mechanical strength. Those differences are related to their chemical composition. Fuji II LC is hydrophilic, as it contains polyHEMA. In the presence of water, Fuji II LC behaves like a hydrogel, but the network resulting from the copolymerization of acidic and UDMA monomers is less hydrophilic, and the effect of water on Dyract is retarded. SIGNIFICANCE: The significant properties of Dyract are determined by its composite character. This certainly represents some advantages, for instance, a higher mechanical strength, a better protection against initial dehydration and subsequent water effects. However, Dyract shows some disadvantages over Fuji II LC, like a lower amount of fluoride release or the interference of oxygen during polymerization.

Clinical comparison between a resin-reinforced self-cured glass ionomer cement and a composite resin for direct bonding of orthodontic brackets. Part 2: Bonding on dry enamel and on enamel soaked with saliva.

The purposes of this investigation were to compare the clinical performance of a resin-reinforced self-cured glass ionomer cement to a standard composite resin in the direct bonding of orthodontic brackets when bonded onto: a) dry teeth and b) teeth soaked with saliva. The two bonding agents were compared using a split-mouth design. In that, both systems were used for direct bonding of stainless steel brackets in every patient. Thirty-eight consecutive patients with fixed appliances were followed for a period of 12 months. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: group A (11 patients) and group B (27 patients). In group A, the performance of 220 stainless steel brackets was evaluated: 110 brackets were bonded with GC Fuji Ortho glass ionomer cement (GC Industrial Co., Tokyo, Japan) onto dry teeth, and 110 bonded with System 1+ composite resin (Ormco Corp., Glendora, CA). In group B, the performance of 540 stainless steel brackets was evaluated: 270 brackets were bonded with GC Fuji Ortho onto teeth soaked with saliva, and 270 bonded with System 1+. In group A, GC Fuji Ortho recorded an overall failure rate (34.5%) significantly higher (p < 0.05) than System 1+ (9%) when applied onto completely dry teeth. Conversely, in group B, no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) between the failure rates of the two bonding agents were found when GC Fuji Ortho was used on teeth soaked with saliva. It was concluded, therefore, that GC Fuji Ortho shows clinically acceptable bond strengths when bonded onto moist teeth, but not when used on dry enamel. Both bonding agents failed mostly at the enamel/adhesive interface, without causing any enamel damage.

Fluoride and mutans streptococci levels in plaque on aged restorations of resin-modified glass ionomer cement, compomer and resin composite.

The use of fluoride-releasing restoratives such as glass ionomer cements (GICs) has increased during the last decade. The antibacterial effect of released fluoride is thought to be a possible caries-preventive effect of these restorations. In this study fluoride concentrations in plaque on 1-year old resin-modified GIC, compomer and resin composite restorations were compared intraindividually and related to the occurrence of caries-associated bacteria. Plaque from class III restorations of the three restorative materials and from a proximal enamel surface in 18 individuals was analysed. Low fluoride levels were detected in all the samples, while the resin-modified GIC samples showed significantly higher amounts. The distribution of oral streptococci, mutans streptococci and lactobacilli did not differ significantly among the surfaces and did not correlate to the fluoride levels in the samples. A good correlation was found between the counts of mutans streptococci in saliva and their proportions in the plaque. The results indicate that the fluoride concentrations released in vivo from 1-year-old restoratives are not high enough to affect the plaque levels of the caries-associated bacteria mutans streptococci and lactobacilli.

Development of metal-resin composite restorative material. Part 2. Effects of acid and heat treatments of silver-tin filler particles on flexural properties of metal-resin composite.

The effects of acid and heat treatments of silver-tin filler particles on the flexural properties of metal-resin composite restorative materials were investigated. Five metal-resin composite restorative materials containing different silver-tin filler particles treated under different conditions were experimentally prepared. The conditions of the alloy particles were; 1) as atomized (NT), 2) 1.8% HCl acid-treated (AT), 3) heat-treated at 150 degrees C for 5 min after AT (A15), 4) heat-treated at 200 degrees C for 5 min after AT (A20) and 5) heat-treated at 250 degrees C for 5 min after AT (A25). The flexural strength and the flexural modulus of elasticity were measured for the five metal-resin composites to evaluate the effects of the acid and heat treatments. The flexural strength of the prepared composites was significantly influenced by the surface condition of the filler particles (p < 0.01), and increased significantly when the as atomized particles (NT) were acid-treated (AT) or acid- and heat-treated at 150 degrees C (A15), but then significantly decreased as the heat treatment temperature increased (A20 and A25). The strength of the A15 composite was significantly higher than those of the other composites, and exceeded that (about 60 MPa) of the previous composite with no treatment. No significant difference was found in the flexural modulus of the composites.
