Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to measure the power density of light curing units transmitted through resin inlays fabricated with direct composite (Filtek Z350, Filtek Supreme XT) and indirect composite (Sinfony). Materials and Methods: A3 shade of Z350, A3B and A3E shades of Supreme XT, and A3, E3, and T1 shades of Sinfony were used to fabricate the resin inlays in 1.5 mm thickness. The power density of a halogen light curing unit (Optilux 360) and an LED light curing unit (Elipar S10) through the fabricated resin inlays was measured with a hand held dental radiometer (Cure Rite). To investigate the effect of each composite layer consisting the resin inlays on light transmission, resin specimens of each shade were fabricated in 0.5 mm thickness and power density was measured through the resin specimens. Results: The power density through the resin inlays was lowest with the Z350 A3, followed by Supreme XT A3B and A3E. The power density was highest with Sinfony A3, E3, and T1 (p < 0.05). The power density through 0.5 mm thick resin specimens was lowest with dentin shades, Sinfony A3, Z350 A3, Supreme XT A3B, followed by enamel shades, Supreme XT A3E and Sinfony E3. The power density was highest with translucent shade, Sinfony T1 (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Using indirect lab composites with dentin, enamel, and translucent shades rather than direct composites with one or two shades could be advantageous in transmitting curing lights through resin inlays.

연구목적: 본 연구는 직접수복용 레진 (Filtek Z350, Supreme XT)과 기공용 레진 (Sinfony)으로 제작한 레진 인레이를 투과하는 광중합기의 광강도를 측정하고 레진 인레이를 구성하는 색조에 따라 투과되는 광강도를 측정하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: A3 색조의 레진 인레이를 Z350 A3 한 가지 색조로 제작한 것과 Supreme XT A3B와 A3E 두 가지 색조로 제작한 것을 이용하였으며 Sinfony는 제조사의 지시에 따라 A3, E3, T1 세 가지 색조로 제작하였고 두께는 1.5 mm로 통일하였다. 할로겐 광중합기 (Optilux 360)와 LED 광중합기 (Elipar S10)를 이용하여 레진 인레이를 투과하는 광강도를 휴대용 광강도 측정기 (Cure Rite)로 측정하였다. 각 레진의 색조가 광강도의 투과에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 0.5mm 두께로 레진 시편을 제작하여 광강도를 측정하였다. 결과: Z350 A3로 제작한 레진 인레이를 투과한 광강도가 가장 낮았으며, 다음으로 Supreme XT A3B와 A3E로 제작한 레진 인레이, 그리고 Sinfony A3, E3, T1으로 제작한 레진 인레이 순으로 광강도가 유의하게 증가하였다 (p < 0.05). 0.5mm의 레진 시편을 투과한 광강도를 측정한 결과 dentin shade인 Sinfony A3, Z350 A3, Supreme XT A3B가 가장 낮았으며, enamel shade인 Supreme XT A3E, Sinfony E3, 그리고 translucent shade인 Sinfony T1 순으로 유의하게 증가하였다 (p < 0.05). 결론: 레진 인레이를 제작할 경우 단색의 직접 수복용 레진을 사용하기 보다는 기공용 레진의 dentin shade, enamel shade, translucent shade를 모두 사용하는 것이 레진 인레이 하방으로 더 많은 중합광을 투과시킬 수 있는 것으로 사료된다.
