The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of temporary restorative and filling material on bonding strength between lithium disilicate glass-ceramic and dentin. 60 extracted human molars were cross-sectioned at occlusal third and were embedded into self-cure acrylic resin. Then the teeth were randomly divided into four groups of 15 each. Lithium disilicate glass-ceramic is cemented to dentin as follows: after no any application of the provisional materials (Group A), after application of ALIKETM (GC America Inc.)(Group B), after application of Luxatemp$^{(R)}$ Automix plus (DMG, Germany)(Group C), after application of Fermit$^{(R)}$ (Ivoclar Vivadent, Leichtenstein)(Group D). After the specimens were stored in distilled water for 24 hours, the shear bond strength of the specimens were measured using UTM (Zwick 1456 41, Zwick, Germany) at a crosshead speed of 1mm/min. The data were analysed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests. There were no statistically significant differences of bond strength among the groups. Fracture type was showed mixed type of adhesive and cohesive fracture in most of specimens. Within the limitation of this study, bond strength of adhesive resin cement between lithium disilicate glass-ceramic and dentin was not affected by provisional restorative and filling materials.

Bacterial microleakage around restorations is considered the principal cause of pulpal inflammation associated with restorations. The rationale for using cavity disinfectant is based on its antimicrobial properties but the cavity disinfectant may leave debris on dentin surfaces. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of 2% chlorhexidine on shear bond strength and microleakage of adhesive restoration. 45 sound bovine teeth were used for the shear bond strength test and 30 for the micorleakage. For the experimental groups, 2% chlorhexidine was applied before the restorations, and was not for the control groups. The result from the this study can be summarized as follows; 1. No significant difference could be found in shear bond strength of each group. 2. No significant difference could be found in microleakage of each group.

One clinical technique recommended for improving marginal integrity is "rebonding" or application of unfilled resins to the surface of composite restoration. But continuously the restorations are affected with occlusal load. There is room for doubt that the rebonding agent has the positive effect on microleakage in spite of the stress generated by the occlusal load. This study determined the effect of rebonding on microleakage of Class V resin composite restorations under load cycling. Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surface of 40 sound extracted premolars and restored with a hybrid light-cured resin composite according to manufacturers' directions. They were randomly divided into two groups consisting of 20 samples: a control(group I), without surface sealing, and the other group(group II) in which margins were etched and rebonded. After thermocycling, each of groups was divided into subgroups(group A, B), and load cycling(total 100,000 cycles with 4-100N load at a rate of 1 Hz) were applied on the group B. Assessment of microleakage utilized methylene blue dye penetration. The following results were obtained: 1. In the occlusal region, no significant difference was noted in the scores regardless of whether or not the rebonding agent was used(group TA-IIA, IB-IIB)(p>0.05). 2. In the cervical region, the control group with rebonding(group IIA) showed the better result than the group without rebonding(group IA)(p<0.05). 3. In the cervical region, the rebonded group with load cycling(group IIB) showed similar results to the group without rebonding(group IB) and no significant difference was noted(p>0.05).

The marginal integrity at the composite resin-tooth interface has been analyzed in real time through acoustic emission (AE) monitoring during the polymerization shrinkage of composite resin subjected to the light exposure. It was found that AE signals were generated by the polymerization shrinkage. Most AE hit events showed a blast type signal having the principal frequency band of 100-200kHz. Bad bonding states were indicated by many hit events in the initial curing period of 1 minute with high contraction rate. The quantity of hit events for the human molar dentin specimen was much less than that for the steel ring specimen but more than that for the PMMA ring specimen. The better the bonding state, the less the AE hit events. The AE characteristics were related with the tensile crack propagation occurring in the adhesive region between the composite resin and the ring substrate as well as the compressive behavior of the ring substrate, which could be used for a nondestructive characterization of the marginal disintegrative fracture of the dental restoration.

For the purpose of comparing the bond strengths of some tooth adhesive restoration materials on primary enamel and dentin, 4 kinds (7 brands) of restorative materials including a composite resin (Z 100), a conventional glass ionomer cement (Chem-Flex), 2 brands of resin-modified glass ionomer cements (Fuji II LC-I, Vitremer), and 3 brands of compomers(Dyract AP, F2000, Compoglass) were investigated using UTM for measuring the shear bond strengths. Additionally the failure modes were examined by histologically observing the fractured surfaces of each specimen. The following results were obtained. 1. The shear bond strengths of Z 100 to the primary enamel were higher than those of other experimental materials except Fuji II LC-I, which showed significantly higher bond strength than Chem-Flex or Vitremer (P<0.05). 2. The shear bond strengths of Z 100 to the primary dentin were higher than those of other experimental materials except Dyract AP and Fuji II LC-I, both of which showed significantly higher shear strength than Chem-Flex or Vitremer (P<0.05). 3. The shear bond strengths of all restorative materials except Dyract AP showed relatively higher values to enamel surface than to dentin surface. In Dyract AP, the reverse was true significantly. 4. All materials examined showed cohesive failures except some Chem-Flex and Vitremer, which showed adhesive failures.

This study evaluated the fluoride release of alkasite restorative material (ARM) and giomer penetrating the dentin adhesive layer. Twenty specimens were prepared for each restorative material, and dentin adhesive with uniform thickness was applied to half of them. The prepared specimens were placed in a polyethylene tube containing 2.0 mL of deionized water and deposited in a 37.0℃ water bath for the study duration. The amount of fluoride release was measured on the 1^st, 3^rd, 7^th, 14^th, 21^st, and 28^th days after deposition. The dentin adhesive applied to the ARM and giomer could not completely block the fluoride release; however, it significantly reduced its amount. The cumulative amount of fluoride release of the ARM after 28 days was higher than that of the giomer regardless of the application of dentin adhesive.

The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare the bond strengths between stainless steel plate and zinc phosphate cement, polycarboxylate cement and glass ionomer cement, which are frequently used for cementation of stainless steel crowns. Three cementing materials were glued to the poles standing above stainless steel plate, bovine teeth, light cured glass ionomer restorative material and amalgam. And the tensile bond strengths between them were measured with universal testing machine and the results were statistically processed using ANOVA and Student t-test. The obtained results were as follows : 1. On stainless steel plate, glass ionomer cement and polycarboxylate cement showed higher tensile bond strengths compared to zinc phosphate cement, with no significant difference between the former two. 2. On the surface of bovine teeth and glass ionomer restorative material, glass ionomer cement showed highest bond strength, followed by polycarboxylate cement and zinc phosphate cement in order. 3. For amalgam restoration, polycarboxylate cement and glass ionomer cement showed higher tensile bond strengths than zinc phosphate cement, with no significant difference between the former two.

The aim of this study was to measure the dentinal tubular fluid flow (DFF) during and after amalgam and composite restorations. A newly designed fluid flow measurement instrument was made. A third molar cut at 3 mm apical from the CEJ was connected to the flow measuring device under a hydrostatic pressure of 15 $cmH_2O$. Class I cavity was prepared and restored with either amalgam (Copalite varnish and Bestaloy) or composite (Z-250 with ScotchBond MultiPurpose: MP, Single Bond 2: SB, Clearfil SE Bond: CE and Easy Bond: EB as bonding systems). The DFF was measured from the intact tooth state through restoration procedures to 30 minutes after restoration, and re-measured at 3 and 7days after restoration. Inward fluid flow (IF) during cavity preparation was followed by outward flow (OF) after preparation, In amalgam restoration, the OF changed to IF during amalgam filling and slight OF followed after finishing. In composite restoration, application CE and EB showed a continuous OF and air-dry increased rapidly the OF until light-curing, whereas in MP and SB, rinse and dry caused IF and OF, respectively. Application of hydrophobic bonding resin in MP and CE caused a decrease in flow rate or even slight IF. Light-curing of adhesive and composite showed an abrupt IF. There was no statistically significant difference in the reduction of DFF among the materials at 30 min. 3 and 7 days after restoration (p > 0.05).

This study was conducted for the purpose of evaluating the stainless steel crowns on extracted primary molars and thus identifying frequent errors and defects. Visual assessment and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) image analysis were performed on 97 primary molars for evaluation of the state of marginal adaptation, cement loss, secondary caries, ledge formation, attritive perforation and marginal polishing defect. The results were as follows: In the examination of object teeth by evaluation criteria, cement loss was found most frequently (98%), followed by secondary caries (42.3%), marginal polishing defect (41.2%), ledge formation (29.9%) and attritive perforation (17.5%), in this order. The cement loss at the margins showed a significant relationship with marginal gap and secondary caries: the larger the marginal gap is, the more frequent is the cement loss (p < 0.05). The average marginal gap was $0.31{\pm}0.26mm$ and showed the highest value in the maxillary 2nd primary molars. The location of the crown margin above the cementoenamel junction was found most frequently and it was found that the higher the crown margin is located, the less the marginal gap becomes (p < 0.05). In conclusion, it is thought very desirable to pay closer attention to crown margins and shapes for stainless steel crown restoration in order to minimize the marginal gaps and consequent cement loss.
