Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) on the shear bond strength (SBS) of brackets bonded to non-demineralized teeth with either phosphoric acid etching or self-etching primer. Methods: Sixty human premolars were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatment groups (n = 15 each): phosphoric acid etching (group 1); self-etching primer (group 2); CPP-ACP for 2 weeks + phosphoric acid etching (group 3), and CPP-ACP for 2 weeks + self-etching primer (group 4). After bonding of the maxillary premolar metal brackets, specimens were subjected to shear forces in a testing machine. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe etching patterns on the enamel surfaces of all teeth. A 2-way analysis of variance was used to test for effects of CPP-ACP and etching system on SBS. Results: Significantly higher mean SBSs were observed in groups subjected to phosphoric acid etching (i.e., groups 1 and 3; p < 0.05). On the other hand, SBSs did not appear to be influenced by CPP-ACP (i.e., groups 3 and 4; p > 0.05). We observed a uniform and clear etched pattern on the enamel surface of the phosphoric acid etching groups. Conclusions: CPP-ACP does not significantly affect the SBS of orthodontic brackets bonded to non-demineralized teeth, regardless of which adhesive method is used to bond the brackets.

Objectives : To evaluate the effect of fluoride application on the color and microhardness of bleached enamel and compare it to that of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) application. Methods : Twenty freshly extracted human adult molar were each sectioned into halves, the specimens divided and treated according to five experimental groups: Group 1, treatment with 10% carbamide peroxide (CP) bleaching agent; Group 2, treatment with 10% CP followed by a 1.23% fluoride gel application; Group 3, treatment with 10% CP followed by a 2.23% sodium fluoride varnish application; Group 4, treatment with 10% CP followed by a 0.11% sodium fluoride gel application; Group 5, treatment with 10% CP followed by a CPP-ACP gel application. All groups were treated 6 h per day for 14 days then immersed in distilled water for 2 weeks. Changes in enamel color were evaluated on Baseline and Day 14. Microhardness were evaluated on Baseline, Days 7 and 14. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey tests. Results : All the bleached enamel specimens revealed increased whiteness and overall color value. Group 1 showed the lowest microhardness values than that of Groups 2, 3, 4 and 5. In all groups, the hardness of tooth after bleaching showed a significant decrease in the microhardness as compared with the one prior to tooth bleaching. The specimens treated with remineralizing agents showed relatively less reduction in enamel microhardness than control group. Conclusions : The addition of fluoride and CPP-ACP did not impede the whitening effect. The use of remineralizing agents during bleaching treatment can significantly enhance the microhardness of bleached enamel.

Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate fluoride release and the micro-shear bond strength of resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) in casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP)-remineralized caries-affected dentin (CAD). Materials and Methods: Exposed dentin surfaces of 30 human third molar teeth were divided into 2 equal groups for evaluating fluoride release and the micro-shear bond strength of RMGIC to CAD. Each group was subdivided into 3 equal subgroups: 1) control (sound dentin); 2) artificially demineralized dentin (CAD); 3) CPP-ACP remineralized dentin (remineralized CAD). To measure fluoride release, 15 disc-shaped specimens of RMGIC (4 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness) were bonded on one flat surface of the dentin discs of each group. Fluoride release was tested using ion chromatography at different intervals; 24 hours, 3, 5, 7 days. RMGIC micro-cylinders were built on the flat dentin surface of the 15 discs, which were prepared according to the assigned group. Micro-shear bond strength was measured after 24 hours water storage. Data were analyzed using 1- and 2-way analysis of variance and the post hoc least significant difference test (${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: Fluoride detected in solutions (at all intervals) and the micro-shear bond strength of RMGIC bonded to CPP-ACP-remineralized dentin were significantly higher than those bonded to artificial CAD (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Demineralized CAD consumes more fluoride released from RMGIC into the solution for remineralization than CPP-ACP mineralized dentin does. CPP-ACP increases the micro-shear bond strength of RMGIC to CAD.

본 연구의 목적은 quantitative light-induced fluorescence-digital(QLF-D) 시스템을 이용하여 유치와 영구치에 형성된 탈회된 법랑질에 서로 다른 세 종류의 항우식 제품 적용 후 각각의 재광화 효과를 비교하는 데 있다. 연구를 위해 각 48개의 건전한 유치 및 영구치를 대상으로 대조군(1군), 불소 함유 치약(2군), functionalized tricalcium phosphate(fTCP) + 불소 함유 치약(3군), casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate(CPP-ACP) 함유 치아 크림(4군)으로 무작위 분류하였다. 유치 및 영구치에 법랑질 탈회를 유발한 후, 14일 동안 1일 2회 항우식 제품을 처리하였으며, quantitative light-induced fluorescence(QLF)를 이용하여 재광화 효과를 비교 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 세 종류의 항우식 제품 모두 유치와 영구치에서 대조군인 1군에 비해 우식 병소의 무기질 소실량을 유의하게 감소시켰으며, 치약 제품 간 비교에서는 3군과 4군에서 2군에 비해 유의하게 높은 재광화 효과를 나타냈다. 이를 통하여 fTCP와 불소 함유 치약 및 CPP-ACP 함유치아 크림이 유치와 영구치 모두에서 우수한 재광화 효과를 보인다는 것과, QLF-D가 초기 우식 병소와 항우식 제제의 재광화 효과를 정량적으로 평가함에 있어 유용한 장비임을 알 수 있다. 그러므로 임상가들은 유치와 영구치에서의 탈회 및 재광화 평가 시 QLF-D 시스템의 임상적 적용을 고려할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 카제인포스포펩타이드-아모르포우스칼슘포스포페이트(CPP-ACP)에 불소이온을 결합시킨 불화 카제인포스포펩타이드-아모르포우스칼슘포스페이트(CPP-ACFP)제제의 법랑질 재광화 정도를 알아보기 위한 실험으로 법랑질 표면에 산부식 시간을 달리한 후 CPP-ACFP제제를 같은 횟수로 도포했을 때의 재광화 정도와 CPP-ACFP제제의 도포 횟수가 법랑질의 재광화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 건전한 치아 64개를 대상으로 미세경도측정, 주사전자현미경 관찰 실험을 하였다. 그 결과 산부식 시간이 길어질수록, CPP-ACFP제제의 도포 횟수를 증가시킬수록 법랑질의 재광화가 더 잘 일어나는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러므로 CPP-ACP에 불소이온을 결합시켜 치아에 무기질 공급과 불소도포를 한 번에 할 수 있는 CPP-ACFP제제는 법랑질 재광화 물질로 권장할 만하다고 하겠다.

Objective: The purpose of this in vitro study was to examine the effects of fluoridated, casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate complex (CPP-ACP)-containing, and functionalized ${\beta}$-tricalcium phosphate (fTCP)-containing toothpastes on remineralization of white spot lesions (WSLs) by using Quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF-D) Biluminator$^{TM}$ 2. Methods: Forty-eight premolars, extracted for orthodontic reasons from 12 patients, with artificially induced WSLs were randomly and equally assigned to four treatment groups: fluoride (1,000 ppm), CPP-ACP, fTCP (with sodium fluoride), and control (deionized water) groups. Specimens were treated twice daily for 2 weeks and stored in saliva solution (1:1 mixture of artificial and human stimulated saliva) otherwise. QLF-D Biluminator$^{TM}$ 2 was used to measure changes in fluorescence, indicating alterations in the mineral contents of the WSLs, immediately before and after the 2 weeks of treatment. Results: Fluorescence greatly increased in the fTCP and CPP-ACP groups compared with the fluoride and control groups, which did not show significant differences. Conclusions: fTCP- and CPP-ACP-containing toothpastes seem to be more effective in reducing WSLs than 1,000-ppm fluoride-containing toothpastes.

Objective: To study and compare the effects of different demineralization-inhibition methods on the shear bond strength (SBS) and fracture mode of an adhesive used to bond orthodontic brackets to demineralized enamel surfaces. Methods: Eighty freshly extracted, human maxillary premolars were divided into 4 equal groups and demineralized over the course of 21 days. Brackets were bonded to the demineralized enamel of teeth in Group 1. In Group 2, bonding was performed following resin infiltration ($ICON^{(R)}$, DMG, Hamburg, Germany). Before bonding, pre-treatment with acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) or solutions containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate with 2% neutral sodium fluoride (CPP-ACP/wF) was performed in Groups 3 and 4, respectively. The SBS values of the brackets were measured and recorded following mechanical shearing of the bracket from the tooth surface. The adhesive remnant index (ARI) scores were determined aft er the brackets failed. Statistical comparisons were performed using one-way ANOVA, Tukey's post-tests, and G-tests. Results: Significant differences were found in some of the intergroup comparisons of the SBS values (F = 39.287, p < 0.001). No significant differences were found between the values for the APF-gel and control groups, whereas significantly higher SBS values were recorded for the resin-infiltrated and CPP-ACP/wF-treated groups. The ARI scores were also significantly different among the 4 groups (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Tooth surfaces exposed to resin infiltration and CPP-ACP/wF application showed higher debonding forces than the untreated, demineralized surfaces.

Background: This study aimed to compare the remineralization effects of sodium caseinate and other substances on artificially demineralized enamel. Methods: We selected 25 healthy human premolars and molars and produced a total of 75 specimens by dividing them into five groups: control group, with distilled water; experimental group 1 (EG1), with 3% sodium caseinate; EG2, with 10% sodium caseinate; EG3, with casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP); and EG4, with 0.05% NaF. Subsequently, the specimens were immersed in an artificial demineralization solution for 60 min. The demineralized specimens were then immersed in a remineralization solution for 7 days. Surface microhardness was measured using a microhardness tester, and remineralized lesions were observed under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Regarding statistical analysis, the paired t-test and analysis of variance were performed using the SPSS program. Results: Although the surface hardness of the remineralized lesions increased significantly in all groups (p<0.05), the average increment did not differ significantly between the groups. The surface microhardness of CPP-ACP was the highest, followed by that of 0.05% NaF and 10% sodium caseinate. The remineralization effect of sodium caseinate was similar to that of 0.05% NaF. SEM confirmed that all groups treated with the remineralization solution were remineralized. Conclusions: Although the remineralization effect of sodium caseinate was slightly lower than that of CPP-ACP, it was similar to that of 0.05% NaF. Therefore, to enhance the remineralization effect of sodium caseinate, the appropriate concentration and application time should be determined.
