Abstract

This study was performed to assess the radiopacity of a variety of canal filling and retrograde root-end filling materials according to the specification concerning root canal obturation materials. Ten materials including Gutta-percha pellets, amalgam, Fuji II LC, $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP, Super $EBA^{(R)}$, $IRM^{(R)}$, AH $26^{(R)}$, $Sealapex^{TM}$, Tubli-$Seal^{TM}$, and dentin were evaluated in this study. In the first part, densitometric reading of an each step of aluminum step wedge on occlusal film were performed at 60 kVp (0.2, 0.3, 0.4 s), 70 kVp (0.2, 0.3, 0.33 s) to decide appropriate voltage and exposure time. In the second part, ten specimens which are 5 mm in diameter and 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 mm in thickness, were fabricated from each material studied. The specimens were radiographed simultaneously with an aluminum step wedge under decided condition (60 kVp, 0.2 s). The mean radiographic density values of the materials were transformed into radiopacity expressed equivalent thickness of aluminum (mm Al). The following results were obtained. 1. Among the various conditions including 0.2 s, 0.3 s, 0.4 s at 60 kVp and 0.2 s, 0.3 s, 0.33 s at 70 kVp, the appropriate voltage and exposure time that meet the requirement of density from 0.5 to 2.0 was 0.2 s at 60 kVp. 2. All of the materials in this study had greater radiopacity than the minimun level recommended by ISO No. 4049 standards. 3. Most of the materials had greater radiopacity than 3 mm Al requirement of ANSI/ADA specification No. 57 (2000) and ISO No. 6876 (2001) standards except for Fuji II LC and Dyract. It suggests that all experimental canal filling and retrograde root-end filling materials have a sufficient radiopacity that meet the requirement concerning root canal obturation materials except for Fuji II LC and Dyract.

본 실험에서는 다양한 방사선 노출 조건에 따른 aluminum step wedge에 대한 광학 밀도를 알아보고, 그 중 적절한 노출조건을 선택하여 수종의 근관 충전재와 치근단 역충전재의 방사선 불투과성 정도를 평가, 비교하였다. 방사선 불투과성의 기준을 위해 11개의 step으로 구성된 aluminum step wedge를 제작하여, 60 kVp, 70 kVp 관전압 상태에서 각각 0.2, 0.,3, 0.4초와 0.2, 0.3, 0.33초의 노출시간으로 교합 필름상에서 방사선 촬영 후 적절한 노출조건을 구하였다. 직경 5 mm, 각각의 두께 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 mm인 10종 (Gutta-percha, amalgam, Super $EBA^{(R)}$, MTA, $IRM^{(R)}$, Fuji II LC, $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP AH, $26^{(R)}$, $Sealapex^{TM}$, Tubli-$Seal^{TM}$)의 근관 충전재와 치근단 역충전재 시편을 각 재료와 두께당 10개씩 제작한 후, 동일한 두께의 상아질 시편, aluminum step wedge와 함께 정해진 노출조건에 따라 방사선 촬영을 하였다. 모든 필름은 자동현상기로 현상하였다. 시편의 흑화도를 densitometer (Model 07-443, Victoreen Inc, Cleveland, Ohio, USA)로 5회 반복 측정 후, 평균값을 구하여 회귀분석 후 알루미늄 두께로 환산하였다. 얻어진 정보를 분석하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 1. 관전압 60 kVp에서 노출시간 0.2, 0.3, 0.4초, 70 kVp에서 0.2, 0.3. 0.33초로 변화를 주어 방사선 촬영을 하였을 때, 흑화도가 0.5-2.5 사이여야 한다는 ISO No. 6876 규격에 가장 적합한 것은 60 kVp, 0.2초일 경우였다. 2. 측정된 근관 충전재와 치근단 역충전재들의 방사선 불투과성 모두 ISO No.4049 규격에 적합하였다. 3. 광중합형 글래스 아이오노머 (Fuji II LC)와 컴포머 (Dyract)를 제외하고는 ANSI/ADA specification (2000) 또는 ISO No. 6876 (2001)규격이 제시한 최소한 3 mm Al 이상의 방사선 불투과성을 지녀야 한다는 규격에 적합하였다. 이상의 결과는 본 실험에 사용된 수종의 근관 충전재와 치근단 역충전재 중 Fuji II LC와 Dyract를 제외하고 모두 규격에 적합한 방사선 불투과성을 가지고 있음을 시사한다.
