TENSILE STRENGTH OF ORTHODONTIC DIRECT BONING ADHESIVES

교정용 접착제의 인장강도

The requirement of ideal orthodontic direct bonding adhesive should include longevity of bond, ability to withstand a variety of forces, resistance to the degrading effects of the oral environment, and ability to be easily removed without affecting the integrity of the enamel. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the adhesive properties of recently developed 3 orthodontic directbonding adhesives by testing the tensile strength. 75 premolars extracted for orthodontic treatment were used. The tensile strength was tested by Tensilon/UTM-1-10000C after 24 hours from bonding. Following results were obtained; The mean tensile strength of each product was higher than the maximum force $(29kg/cm^2)$ exerted on a bracket during orthodontic treatment. The tensile strength of Mono-Lok was statistically higher than Concise and Dyna-Bond, although there was no difference between the tensile strength of Concise and Dyna-Bond statistically. Of the filure, the combination type of failure $(68\%)$, where part of the adhesive remained on the tooth and part on the bracket was the most common type. The second type of failure $(22.7\%)$ occurred at the toothadhesive interface and the last type of failure $(9.3\%)$ occurred at the adhesive-bracket interface.

저자는 비교적 최근내 개발되어 시판되고있는 3가지 교정용 접착제를 교정을 위해 발치한 25개씩의 소구치에 접착하여 24시간후에 인장강도를 측정한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 각 제품의 평균인장강도는 교정력과 구강내에서 발생할 수 있는 외력의 합인 $29kg/cm^2$ 보다 높았으며, 제품C는 제품B, A보다 통계학적으로 높은 인장강도를 보이나, 제품B와 제품A는 통계학적으로 유의한 차가 없었다. 접착제가 떨어진 양상은 접착제가 치아와 bracket에 부분적으로 붙어서 떨어진 것이 가장 많았고 $(68\%)$, 접착제가 bracket에만 붙어서 떨어진 것 $(22.7\%)$, 접착제가 치아에만 붙어서 떨어진 것$(9.3\%)$순으로 나타났다.
