Effect of X-ray irradiation on the permeability of bovine dental enamel.

To estimate permeability properties of bovine dental enamel, complex impedance measurements and radioisotope diffusion experiments were carried out before and after X-ray irradiation (single dose, 72 Gy) of enamel specimens. Neither impedance measurements nor diffusion experiments showed significant changes in permeability.

Dentin permeation: comparison of diffusion with filtration.

A comparison was made between the rate of iodide permeation of dentin by diffusion and by filtration. Before acid etching, filtration only doubled the rate of iodide permeation relative to that obtained by diffusion. After acid etching, filtration produced a 32-fold increase in permeation. Acid etching, by removing occluding debris, facilitates filtration more than diffusion.

Dentin permeability: changes produced by iontophoresis.

Iontophoretic currents (0--1.0 mA) were applied to dentin disks prepared from human third molars. A negative electrode increased 125I-permeation 10X, while a positive electrode increased 14C-lidocaine 8X. Iontophoresis appears promising as a method to increase the permeation of dentin by ionized substances of therapeutic interest.

Dentin permeability: a comparison of functional versus anatomical tubular radii.

Two independent techniques (filtration and surface tension) were developed to measure the functional tubular radii of 11 dentin and 2 glass discs. Anatomic radii were determined using SEM for comparative purposes. The functional radii of the dentin discs ranged from 5 to 40% of the anatomic radii. This differences was due to the fact that SEM visualizes only the surface while the functional techniques measure the radii within dentin tubules. It is concluded that the functional methods are preferred whenever the dynamics of fluid flow through dentin are under consideration.

Effects of distance from the pulp and thickness on the hydraulic conductance of human radicular dentin.

The purposes of this study were: (1) to measure the effect of distance from the pulp on the hydraulic conductance of human radicular dentin; (2) to determine the influence of dentin thickness on the rates of fluid flow; and (3) to attempt to correlate dentinal tubule densities and diameters with root dentin hydraulic conductance. Dentin slabs prepared from extracted, unerupted, human third molar teeth were placed in a split-chamber device to permit quantitation of fluid filtration rate (hydraulic conductance). In the SEM portion of the study, dentinal tubule numbers and diameters were recorded. The results indicated that radicular dentin hydraulic conductance decreased with distance from the pulp and with increasing dentin thickness. Tubule density and diameter correlated well with the measured hydraulic conductances. The relatively low hydraulic conductance of outer root dentin makes it a significant barrier to fluid movement across root structure.

Permeability of the hard tissue bridge formed after pulpotomy with calcium hydroxide: a histologic study.

Analysis of these results shows that complete hard tissue bridges, aside from occurring with great frequency, produce a satisfactory protection to the pulp. In a case in which the barrier is incomplete, some future clinical problems may result as an incomplete barrier does not offer adequate protection as shown by the chronic inflammatory reaction in the remaining pulp tissue.

The permeability of dentine from bovine incisors in vitro.

The permeability of coronal dentine was investigated by measuring the hydraulic conductance of dentine discs. Reductions in dentine thickness from the enamel side of disc resulted in a greater increase in permeability than reductions from the pulpal side. Scanning electron microscopy revealed fewer dentinal tubules with smaller diameters in superficial dentine than in deep dentine. The permeability of coronal incisor bovine dentine is six to eight times less than that of unerupted coronal human third molar dentine but similar to that of human root dentine.
