The endodontically treated tooth is generally restored with post and core, owing to the brittleness and the loss of large amount of tooth structure. Although there have been lots of studies about the endodontically treated teeth, the three-dimensional quantitative studies about the stress distribution of them are in rare cases. In this study, it was assumed that the coronal portion of the upper incisor had extensively damaged. After the root canal therapy it was post cored, and restored with PFG crown. The three-dimensional model, in which the root was supported with a normal alveolar bone, was constructed. Force was applied to the centric stop point with the angle of 135 degrees to the long axis of the tooth. Force was assumed to be 250N as functional maximum bite force of upper central incisors. The results analyzed with three-dimensional finite element method were as follows : 1. Stress was concentrated on the middle portion of the labial side dentin and the apical portion of the dentin. 2. Stress in the post was more concentrated on the post apex. 3. The displacement of the post at the post-cement interface was almost symmetrical la-bio-lingually. 4. It assumed that restoring extensively damaged tooth with a post-core and PFG crown is an adequate method of restoration.

Objectives: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the push-out bond strength of a novel calcium silicate-based root repair material-BIOfactor MTA to root canal dentin in comparison with white MTA-Angelus (Angelus) and Biodentine (Septodont). Materials and Methods: The coronal parts of 12 central incisors were removed and the roots were embedded in acrylic resin blocks. Midroot dentin of each sample was horizontally sectioned into 1.1 mm slices and 3 slices were obtained from each root. Three canal-like standardized holes having 1 mm in diameter were created parallel to the root canal on each dentin slice with a diamond bur. The holes were filled with MTA-Angelus, Biodentine, or BIOfactor MTA. Wet gauze was placed over the specimens and samples were stored in an incubator at $37^{\circ}C$ for 7 days to allow complete setting. Then samples were subjected to the push-out test method using a universal test machine with the loading speed of 1 mm/min. Data was statistically analyzed using Friedman test and post hoc Wilcoxon signed rank test with Bonferroni correction. Results: There were no significant differences among the push-out bond strength values of MTA-Angelus, Biodentine, and BIOfactor MTA (p > 0.017). Most of the specimens exhibited cohesive failure in all groups, with the highest rate found in Biodentine group. Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, MTA-Angelus, Biodentine, and BIOfactor MTA showed similar resistances to the push-out testing.

본 연구는 상아질의 비교원성 단백질을 chondroitinase ABC (C-ABC)를 이용하여 제거함으로써 비교원성 단백질의 제거가 상아질 접착제의 미세인장결합강도와 교원질망의 형태에 미치는 영향을 상아질의 다양한 습윤상태에 따라 평가하고자 시행하였다. 비교원성 단백질의 상아질접착제의 미세인장강도에 대한 영향을 평가하기 위해 제 3대구치의 상아질을 노출시키고, 두 군으로 나누고 한 군은 C-ABC, 다른 군은 증류수를 $37^{\circ}C$에서 48시간 동안 적용한 후, 상아질의 습윤상태(wet, dry 및 re-wet)와 상아질 접착제(Single Bond 2, One Step Plus)를 다르게 이용하여 복합레진을 수복하였다. 24시간 후 가로 1 mm, 세로 1mm의 시편을 제작하고 미세인장강도를 측정하였다. 상아질 교원질의 형태변화를 관찰하기 위하여 상아질 시편에 산부식을 시행하고 C-ABC 적용 후, 시편을 제작하였고 미세인장강도 측정후 파괴된 접착면의 파괴양상과 각 접착제의 접착계면 관찰을 위하여 FE-SEM 관찰하였다. C-ABC 처리여부와 관계없이 습윤한 상아질면에 접착한 군은 모든 접착제에서 통계학적으로 유의성있는 미세인장결합강도의 차이를 나타나지 않았다(p > 0.05). C-ABC를 적용하였을 경우, Single Bond 2에서는 재수화한 상아질면에 접착한 군이 습윤한 상아질면에 접착한 군에 비해 미세인장결합강도가 감소하였다(p < 0.05). FE-SEM 관찰결과, C-ABC를 적용후에는 접착성 파괴가 주로 일어났으며, 교원질 섬유간 거리가 증가하였으며 부분적으로 교원질 섬유들간에 응집된 양상이 관찰되었다.

Horizontal root fracture (HRF) is a result of trauma to teeth and periodontium, which implies severe injury to cementum, dentin, and pulp. This is a rare case of HRF in the maxillary lateral incisor of a 62-year-old male who only presented persistent gingival swelling, fistula, and dull pain at first. An apical radiolucency of unknown origin turned out to be a result of hidden HRF at the coronal third level that was later visualized radiographically during endodontic treatment. The tooth was scheduled to be extracted upon the patient's agreement. The purpose of this report is to alert clinicians about the importance of diagnosing HRF through thorough clinical and radiographic examinations. Where there is persistent fistula without proper cause, HRF should be considered as a causative factor, and the diagnosis could be effective with aid of cone beam computed tomography, electronic root apex locator, as well as other clinical signs.

본 연구는 상아질 혼성층의 교원섬유를 가수분해하는 효소인 MMPs (Matrix metalloproteinses)의 억제제로 알려진 chlorhexidine (CHX)을 적용 후 결합강도를 측정하였으며, 이를 각각 열순환 처리 후 결합강도를 측정하였다. 또한 주사전자현미경으로 접착계면에서의 파괴 양상을 비교 분석하였다. 우식이 없는 발거한 32개의 제3대구치의 교합면 상아질을 노출시키고 GI그룹에서는 dentin conditioner를 처리 후 2% chlorhexidine을 적용시키고, 산부식 접착제 그룹에서는 인산 산부식을 시행하고 2% chlorhexidine을 적용 후 3단계 산부식형 상아질 접착제 (Scotchbond Multipurpose, SM), 2단계 산부식형 상아질 접착제 (Single Bond, SB)를 도포하고, 자가부식 접착제 그룹에서는 2% chlorhexidine 적용 후 자가부식 상아질 접착제 (Clearfil Tri-S, TS)를 도포한다. 이후 복합 레진 (Z-250)과 GI (Fuji-II LC)를 충전한 시편을 $1\;mm^2$의 단면을 갖는 beam으로 제작하여 열순환 하지 않거나, 10,000회 열순환 ($5\;{\sim}\;55^{\circ}C$)하였다. Universal testing machine (EZ-test; Shimadzu, Japan)에서 cross head speed 1 mm/min로 인장력을 가하여, 미세인장결합강도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과는 유의수준 0.05 level에서 two-way ANOVA를 이용하여 통계분석하였다. 그 후 파절된 시편의 파괴 양상을 현미경 (SEM)으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다; 1. 2% CHX을 적용한 모든 실험군에서 상아질과의 미세인장결합강도가 증가하였고, 열순환은 상아질과의 미세인장결합강도를 감소시켰다 (P > 0.05). 2. CHX 적용 후 열순환 한 군은 CHX을 적용하지 않고 열순환한 군에 비하여 상아질과의 미세인장결합강도가 높았으며, 특히 GI와 TS군에서 유의한 차이를 나타내었다 (P < 0.05). 3. 파괴 양상 분석 결과, 혼성층에서의 접착성 파괴를 보이며, CHX을 적용하면 혼성층 기저부에서 상부로 파괴 부위가 옮겨가는 양상을 나타내었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 토대로, MMPs 억제제인 2% CHX은 글래스 아이오노머 시멘트와 상아질 접착제의 초기 미세인장결합강도에는 영향을 미치지 않으며, CHX 적용이 접착내구성을 유지하는데 도움이 되었다.

This study was designed to examine the effect of tetracycline application to the planed periodontal surgery of the experimentally induced periodontal disease in dogs. Modified Widman flap surgery was done and aqueous tetracycline (1%) was applied to the root surface for 5min, after which the wound was rinsed with saline, and flaps were coronally repositioned. Root surface ntoches were used as reference points. The animals were sacrificed 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks after surgery, and block sections of tooth and surround tissue were processed for conventional light and electron microscopy. The results were as follows : 1. A more coronal position of junctional epithelium was observed in the area treated with tetracycline. 2. In the most of the tetracycline - treated teeth, the new collagen fibrils of connective tissue were oriented vertical/or oblique and parallel to the root surface. The vertical or oblique fibers were inserted into the denuded dentin matrix and contacted with exposed dentin collagen fibrils. 3. In the tetracycline - treated root, new cementum apposition, most of acellular extrinsic fiber cementum, was seen with bundles of oriented collagen fibrils incoporating into the cementum. 4. In the control and tetracyclin - treated teeth, bone resorption was observed at the alveolar crest in the 1 week groups.

;A new root canal instrument and instrumentation technique: a preliminary report. Cleaning and shaping the root canal system has been and continues to be a challenge for even the most experienced endodontist. Curved. narrow canals. in particular. cause difficulties for the beginner as well as the specialist. A new instrument designed to incorporate new concepts was developed to ameliorate the problems in cleaning and shaping root canal systems. This new instrument has been given the name of SW (Senia and Wildey). The new SW instrument uses controlled right and left rotational forces. This motion was used to clean and shape simulated root canals in plastic blocks and root canals in extracted teeth. Instrumentation appeared to be easier. faster. and more precise than with conventional instruments. especially in curved canals where there was remarkable reduction of canal transportation. A mechanical version of the SW instrument was also developed. It was used to flare the coronal portion of the root canal system. Wildey WL. Senia ES., Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol1989 Feb:67(2):198-207 Another look at root canal instrumentation. Several aspects of root canal instrumentation need additional research. Various factors must be considered in an analysis of instrumentation of the root canal system: the dentin that is cut: the technique used to cut it: the design of the instruments: the material and manufacturing process used to make the instruments: the irrigant used during the procedure: and the anatomic configuration of the root canal system. An analysis of these factors clearly indicates that existing root canal instruments and techniques are less than ideal and. in fact. do not accomplish what is expected of them. Root canals must be properly. but. at the same time. destructive and unnecessary removal of dentin should be kept to a minimum. The Flex-R and Canal Master instruments were developed to address some of the shortcomings of existing instruments and techniques. More scientifically based research is needed to fully evaluate these new instruments and techniques and to develop future instruments. Wildey WL; Senia ES.

PURPOSE. Post surface conditioning is necessary to expose the glass fibers to enable bonding between fiber post and resin cement. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of different surface conditioning on tensile bond strength (TBS) of a glass fiber reinforced post to resin cement. MATERIALS AND METHODS. In this in vitro study, 40 extracted single canal central incisors were endodontically treated and post spaces were prepared. The teeth were divided into four groups according to the methods of post surface treatment (n=10): 1) Silanization after etching with 20% $H_2O_2$, 2) Silanization after airborne-particle abrasion, 3) Silanization, and 4) No conditioning (Control). Adhesive resin cement (Panavia F 2.0) was used for cementation of the fiber posts to the root canal dentin. Three slices of 3 mm thick were obtained from each root. A universal testing machine was used with a cross-head speed of 1 mm/minute for performing the push-out tests. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests were used for analyzing data (${\alpha}$=0.05). RESULTS. It is revealed that different surface treatments and root dentin regions had significant effects on TBS, but the interaction between surface treatments and root canal regions had no significant effect on TBS. There was significant difference among $H_2O_2$ + Silane Group and other three groups. CONCLUSION. There were significant differences among the mean TBS values of different surface treatments. Application of hydrogen peroxide before silanization increased the bond strength between resin cements and fiber posts. The mean TBS mean values was significantly greater in the coronal region of root canal than the middle and apical thirds.

Objectives: To evaluate the effects of copolymer of acrylic acid and maleic acid (Poly[AA-co-MA]) and calcium hypochlorite ($Ca(OCl)_2$) on root canal dentin using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Materials and Methods: Twenty-four single-rooted teeth were instrumented and the apical and coronal thirds of each root were removed, leaving the 5 mm middle thirds, which were then separated into two pieces longitudinally. The specimens were randomly divided into six groups and subjected to each irrigant for 5 min as follows: G1, $Ca(OCl)_2$; G2, Poly(AA-co-MA); G3, $Ca(OCl)_2$ + Poly(AA-co-MA); G4, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl); G5, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); G6, NaOCl+EDTA. The specimens were prepared for SEM evaluation. Smear layer, debris and erosion scores were recorded by two blinded examiners. One image from G3 was analyzed with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) on suspicion of precipitate formation. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests. Results: G1 and G4 showed the presence of debris and smear layer and they were statistically different from G2, G3, G5 and G6 where debris and smear layer were totally removed (p < 0.05). In G1 and G4, erosion evaluation could not be done because of debris and smear layer. G2, G3 and G5 showed no erosion, and there was no significant difference between them. G6 showed severe erosion and was statistically different from G2, G3 and G5 (p < 0.05). EDS microanalysis showed the presence of Na, P, and Ca elements on the surface. Conclusions: Poly(AA-co-MA) is effective in removing the smear layer and debris without causing erosion either alone or with $Ca(OCl)_2$.
