Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(1):43-52. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.1.43

The aim of this study was to examine the bioactivity and osseointegration of Ti-6Al-4V alloy implant which was modified by an anodic oxidation and a cyclic precalcification treatments. After blasting treatment using HAp (Hydroxyapatitie; HAp) powder which is resorbable blasting media (RBM) on the surface of Ti-6Al-4V alloy implants, the anodic oxidation treatment and the cyclic precalcification treatment were conducted to form nanotube TiO2 layer and HAp precipitation respectively. The surface morphology of the surface-treated Ti-6Al-4V alloy implant was investigated after immersion in the simulated body fluid(SBF) for 3 days to investigate the bioactivity. To investigate the effect of surface treatment on bonding between the implant and bone, RBM treated implant and RBM-anodization-cyclic precalcification(RACP) treated implant were placed on the distal side of both tibia diaphysis of rats, and then the removal torque of the implant was measured after 4 weeks. On the surface of RACP treated group, bone-like apatite precipitation was observed after immersion in SBF for 3 days. The removal torque was significantly higher in the RACP treated group than in the RBM treated group. The interfacial fracture between the implant and the new bone was observed in the RBM treated group, but both the cohesive fracture at the new bone and the interfacial fractures between the implant and the new bone were observed in the RACP treated group.

Kyung Hee PARK ; Woon Young LEE ; Ho Ju SONG ; Yeong Joon PARK

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(1):33-42. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.1.33

The calcium phosphate coating on various pretreated metals was prepared by soaking in modified simulated body fluid (m-SBF) solution. The coating structure and its surface morphologies were determined by x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The results revealed significant differences in morphology and composition of the calcium phosphate coatings with and without chitosan and NaOH-pretreated commercially pure titanium (cp-Ti) substrate. The calcium phosphates formed on chitosan coated-Ti pretreated with NaOH were ~ 350 nm-sized resulting in strong bonding of the apatite layer with the substrates and a uniform gradient of stress transfer from coating materials to the Ti-substrate. After NaOH pretreatment, the hydroxyl groups bind to Ca²⁺ to attract PO₄³⁻ anions, eventually resulting in a continuous layer of calcium phosphate on chitosan coated-Ti substrate during immersion in m-SBF solution. The chitosan coated-Ti showed hydrophobic surface while NaOH pretreatment resulted in maximum hydrophilicity to the Ti substrate. Due to improved wettability of Ti by NaOH pretreatment before chitosan coating, aggregation of calcium phosphate was prevented and size-controlled composite materials were obtained.

Ga Eun SON ; Tae Yub KWON ; Young Kyung KIM

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(1):21-32. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.1.21

This study aimed to investigate whether pre-curing the universal adhesives affect the resin bonding to zirconia ceramic. Two commercial universal adhesives (All-Bond Universal, ABU; Single Bond Universal Adhesive, SBU) were tested in comparison with a conventional zirconia primer (Z-Prime Plus, ZPP). Air-abraded zirconia specimens were divided into six groups, to which different priming agents were applied with or without photo-polymerization. After resin cylinders were built on the primed zirconia surface using a resin cement (Duo-Link), all bonded specimens were stored in water at 37℃ for 24 hours and half of them (n = 12) were additionally thermocycled 5,000 times. A shear bond strength test was performed at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/minute and failure modes were assessed using an optical microscope at 25× magnification. Before thermocycling, the light-cured specimens of ABU and SBU showed higher bond strengths than the uncured ones of the materials (p<0.05), whereas no significant difference was found between the pre-cured and uncured specimens of ZPP (p > 0.05). After thermal aging, there were significant decreases in the bond strength for all specimens treated with the universal adhesives (p<0.05). However, ZPP produced no significant difference after aging (p > 0.05) and attained higher bond strength values for both the pre-cured and uncured specimens when compared to the two universal adhesives (p<0.05). Adhesive failures were predominant in all test groups and thermocycling resulted in the higher incidences of adhesive failures for the uncured groups, which was not shown in the pre-cured groups.

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(1):11-20. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.1.11

Objective of this study was to compare the color stability, mechanical and chemical properties of three different types of temporary crown resins. Commercially available powder-liquid (Group PL), light-cured (Group LC) and auto-mix syringe (Group AM) types' temporary crown resins were used as experimental groups for each of the evaluation. All the test groups were evaluated after 1 day and 7 days of immersion in various staining solutions. The colors of all groups before and after storage in the staining solutions were measured by a spectrophotometer based on CIE Lab system, and the color differences (ΔE(*)) thereby calculated. Micro hardness test was performed before water storage and aging after 7 days at 37 ℃. In addition, flexural strength, water sorption and solubility tests were performed according to international standard, ISO 10477. All experimental groups showed significant color change in staining solutions when compared to those stored in the control solution (distilled water) (p<0.05). Group PL showed the least color change among the three groups followed by Group AM (p<0.05). This tendency was observed after 7 days of immersion. In terms of the micro hardness test, Group PL showed the highest value among the three groups followed by Group AM (p<0.05). Additionally, the flexural strength decreased in the following order: AM > PL > LC (p<0.05). Water sorption and solubility increased in the following order: AM < PL < LC (p<0.05). The results of this study would provide useful information when choosing temporary crown resin types in various clinical situations.

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(1):1-10. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.1.1

There are several causes of tooth discoloration following root canal treatment. In this study, we evaluated the effects of sealers on tooth discoloration and internal bleaching. Twenty-four teeth were divided into 4 groups: control group, AH plus, Endosequece BC, and MTA fillapex group. Root canal filling was performed using each sealer conventionally and non-vital bleaching was performed with sodium perborate. The L, a, and b values were measured using Vita easyshade. Tooth discoloration after root canal treatment occurs irrespective of the type of sealers and may cause discoloration with only gutta-percha cone. The effect of non-vital bleaching following the use of calcium silicate-based sealers such as Endosequece BC and MTA fillapex was higher than that of AH plus. Therefore, it needs careful use of sealers in endodontics and calcium silicate-based sealers have advantages of bleaching in case of discolored tooth.

Bichna KIM ; Woon Young LEE ; Yeong Joon PARK ; Ho Jun SONG

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(2):121-130. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.2.121

It is difficult to get sufficient roughness on titanium implant surface using traditional electrochemical treatments. In this study, we have developed a new method which provides a hybrid structured titanium surface having micro/nano roughness using electrochemical treatment in NaCl electrolyte and hydrothermal treatment. Titanium disks were anodically oxidized (ANO) in 0.15M NaCl electrolyte by applying positive electric pulses. The oxide compounds loosely attached to the surface were removed by ultrasonic cleaning (ANO group). These specimens were hydrothermally (HT) treated in an alkaline solution (ANO-HT group). ANO group showed the dimpled grain surfaces with a diameter of approximately 30 µm, and its roughness (Ra) was about 2.4 µm. The nano-sized crystallites which had an anatase TiO₂ crystalline structure were uniformly distributed on the surface of ANO-HT group. This group still retained high roughness (~2.7 µm) similar to ANO group and showed high hydrophilicity. Titanium surface with high roughness and hydrophilicity was fabricated using new electrochemical treating method and hydrothermal treatment. This surface modification method could be used for enhancing the osteoconductivity of the titanium implants.

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(2):109-120. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.2.109

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the color stability of light cured composite resins according to the resin matrices. Three kinds of resin matrices such as Bis-GMA (Venus® Diamond; VD), Silorane (FiltekTM P90; P90), and Ormocer (Admira; Ad) were selected. Each of them were used to prepare 30 specimens. The initial CIE L*a*b* values were measured by means of a Spectrophotometer (NF999, Nippon Denshoku, Japan). For accelerated aging process, the specimens were immersed in a circulating water bath with distilled water at 60℃. Spectrophotometric analyses were made after immersion of 8, 16, 24, 41 days and the color difference (ΔE*) was calculated. The L* value increased compared with initial L* value. VD had the greatest L* value change and Ad had the smallest L* value change (p<0.05). Ad had the greatest a* value change and VD had the smallest a* value change (p<0.05). The b* value of P90 increased steadily in positive value (+)(p<0.05). ΔE* of Ad had the smallest value and that of P90 had the greatest change with time. According to this study, the value of light cured composite resins was increased with water sorption and color of those changed into greenish and yellowish. And according to the evaluation of color stability, Ad with Ormocer as resin matrices had the best color stability with time in oral environment and P90 with Silorane as resin matrices had the lowest color stability with time. And VD had the greatest initial ΔE*.

In Hye BAE ; Sung Ae SON ; Jeong Kil PARK

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(2):99-108. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.2.99

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of deproteinization and an additional primer treatment on the microtensile bond strength of a newly developed self-adhesive resin cement to dentin. The occlusal dentin of extracted human third molars was randomly divided into four groups according to the surface treatment: a control (CON) with no treatment; applying a deproteinizing agent (DPT) (5% sodium hypochlorite); using a primer (PRI) (G-CEM ONE Adhesive enhancing primer, GC); and applying a deproteinizing agent and a primer (DPT-PRI). Composite resin blocks with a disk shape (diameter, 10 mm; height, 4 mm) were bonded to the treated dentin using a self-adhesive resin cement (G-CEM ONE, GC). The specimens were sectioned into sticks with a cross-section of 1 mm² and tested to failure in tension mode at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. All groups showed a significantly higher microtensile bond strength compared to CON (p<0.05). PRI showed the highest microtensile bond strength followed by DPT and DPT-PRI (p<0.05). No significant differences were observed between DPT and DPT-PRI (p>0.05). Within the limitations of this study, a deproteinizing agent or specific primer can enhance the microtensile bond strength of the self-adhesive resin cement to dentin. However, it is not recommended to use a primer in combination with the deproteinizing agents.

Three-dimensional evaluation of the machinability of monolithic CAD/CAM-generated posterior crowns by nano-hybrid ceramic

Jae Hong KIM

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(2):89-98. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.2.89

The purpose of this study comparatively analyzed the machinability of various dental hybrid blocks manufactured by using the CAD/CAM system. Three hybrid composite blocks (Vita enamic, Lava Ultimate, GC Cerasmart) were used for experimental groups and one conventional ceramic block (Vita Mark II) was used for control. The digital impression of the master model and abutment was taken by using a scanner, and then the CAD software program was used to design restorations. The four-axis milling machine (inLab MCXL; Sirona Dental Systems GmbH, Bensheim, Germany) was used four materials. The digitized data was superimposed with 3D inspection software to quantitatively obtain the machinability of a ceramic crown, and visual differences were confirmed with a color map. The root mean square (RMS) values of ceramic crown group were statistically analyzed with one-way ANOVA (α=0.05). While there was a significant difference in the machinability of the internal surface, among four groups, there was statistically significant difference between conventional (VM group) and hybrid ceramic (VE, LU, GC groups) (p<0.05). Consequently, the machinability of VM is lower than that of other hybrid ceramics, and the machinability of VE is better than that of LU and GC. For ceramics as final restorations, manufacturing of dental restorations using hybrid composite ceramic is recommended.

Chang Ha LEE ; Seol Ah JO ; Bum Soon LIM ; In Bog LEE

Korean Journal of Dental Materials.2019;46(2):75-88. doi:10.14815/kjdm.2019.46.2.75

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of apical constriction (AC) diameter, irrigant flow rate, and needle tip design on apical pressure (AP) during the root canal irrigation. Five extracted human mandibular premolars were instrumented up to #35 (0.06 taper) using nickel-titanium rotary instruments. AC was determined at 1 mm from the apical foramen. Three needles with different tip designs (notched, side-vented, and flat) were placed 3 mm from AC. APs were measured with varying flow rates of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mL/s. The AC diameter of the teeth was enlarged to #40 and #45 (0.06 taper) successively, and the aforementioned measurement procedure was repeated (n=5). When the other conditions were controlled, AP increased with decreasing AC diameter or increasing irrigant flow rate, and the AP of flat needle was the highest, followed by notched, and side-vented needle (p<0.05). The APs with 0.05 mL/s flow rate were lower than central venous pressure (5.88 mmHg) for all conditions. Under the conditions of the present study, flat needle is not recommended in narrow AC (0.35 mm), as the value of the AP with a flow rate of 0.05 mL/s is similar to the central venous pressure. However, in AC diameter of >0.35 mm, open-end (notched or flat) needles can be used to improve irrigant replacement in the apical portion using a flow rate of 0.05 mL/s.
