PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of different finishing and polishing techniques on water absorption, water solubility, and microhardness of ceramic or glass-polymer based computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials following thermocycling. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 150 disc-shaped specimens were prepared from three different hybrid materials and divided into five subgroups according to the applied surface polishing techniques. All specimens were subjected up to #4000 grit SiC paper grinding. No additional polishing has been done to the control group (Group I). Other polishing procedures were as follows: Group II: two-stage diamond impregnated polishing discs; Group III: yellow colored rubber based silicone discs; Group IV: diamond polishing paste; and Group V: Aluminum oxide polishing discs. Subsequently, 5000-cycles of thermocycling were applied. The analyses were conducted after 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days of water immersion. Water absorption and water solubility results were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests. Besides, microhardness data were compared by Kruskal-Wallis and MannWhitney U tests (P<.05). RESULTS. Surface polishing procedures had significant effects on water absorption and solubility and surface microhardness of resin ceramics (P<.05). Group IV exhibited the lowest water absorption and the highest microhardness values (P<.05). Immersion periods had no effect on the microhardness of hybrid ceramic materials (P>.05). CONCLUSION. Surface finishing and polishing procedures might negatively affect physical properties of hybrid ceramic materials. Nevertheless, immersion periods do not affect the microhardness of the materials. Final polishing by using diamond polishing paste can be recommended for all CAD/CAM materials.

The grinding for hard-to-machine materials, such as ceramics, super alloys etc., has proven to be a very difficult and consuming process utilizing ordinary methods. In order to conduct high efficiency machining of such materials, grinding processes using metallic bond diamond wheels and applying electrolytic in-process dressing(ELID) have been attempted on a surface grinding machine. In this study, the effects of grinding parameters, and grit sizes have been evaluated in view of surface roughness, grinding force as well as step difference in simultaneous grinding of different materials. The study and experimental results are presented in this paper.

Biaxial fracture behavior of alumina specimens with the diameter of 20mm and four kinds of thickness of 1.9, 2.3, 2.6 and 2.8mm was studied by the ball-on-3-ball test and the fracture results were analyzed by he analysis of variance (ANOCA), The strength measured with the down speed prescribed in ASTM showed that the measured strength was not dependent on the thickness of the specimens. Equivalent radius and crack-braching number were observed to increase lineraly with the thickness of the specimens. The jog direction was observed to study the effect of grinding direction on surface flaws. It is though that the surface finishing with #600 grit diamond wheel did not affect the surface flaws of the specimens.

The purpose of this study was to observe the effect on the removal of dentinal smear layer and morphological changes of reduced dentin surfaces by various dentin surface conditioners. Thirty-two healthy human premolars extracted due to periodontal or orthodontic reasons were used. The teeth were cross-sectioned to expose dentin at the middle portion of the crown with diamond rotary saw. The specimens were then divided into 8 groups. The sectioned dentin surfaces in group 1 to 4 were grinded with No. 400 grit silicone abrasive paper and those in group 5 to 8 were cut with #700 carbide bur under air-water spray. The grinded or cut dentin surfaces were conditioned with 3% $H_2O$, Dentin Conditioner(GC Inter. Corp., Japan), and Scotchprep(3M Dent Prod., U.S.A) according to manufacturer's directions. All the specimens were dried in room temperature for 48 hours, and gold-coated with Eiko ion coater(Eik-engineering Co.), and observed in Hitachi S-450 Scanning electron microscope at 15-25 KV. The following results were obtained; 1. The dentin surfaces grinded with the silicon abrasive paper were rougher in texture and heavier in amount of smear layer than those cut with the carbide bur. 2. Scrubbing of 3% $H_2O_2$ was not effective in removing dentinal smear layer. 3. 20-second conditioning of Dentin Conditioner (GC Inter. Corp) resulted in the removal of a significant amount of the smear layer without removing the tubular plugs and dissolving the peritubular dentin. 4. Scotchprep removed the smear layer very effectively. But at the same time it dissolved the peritubular dentin. 5. Irrespective of the uses of the silicon carbide abrasive paper or the carbide bur the morphological changes of dentin surfaces treated with the same conditioning agents were similar.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of manual polishing over autoglazed and overglazed porcelain and their effect on plaque accumulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Thirty-six porcelain discs were fabricated out of which 18 each was subjected for autoglazing and overglazing. Half surface of the discs was left intact; the remaining half was roughened with medium grit diamond bur. Roughened surfaces were repolished by porcelain polishing kits (Shofu, DFS, Eve). All the surfaces were evaluated by the perthometer and SEM. Six discs from each sample were placed in human volunteer's mouth for 72 hours to evaluate the plaque accumulation. Acquired data was subjected to ANOVA comparative evaluation. RESULTS. Roughened surfaces had average roughness value of $2.88{\pm}0.1935{\mu}m$. The repolished surfaces by porcelain correction kits Shofu, DFS and Eve, average roughness value reduced to $0.6250{\pm}0.1036$, $0.9192{\pm}0.0953$, $0.9017{\pm}0.1305$ respectively. Autoglazed and overglazed surfaces showed the mean roughness value (Ra) of $0.4217{\pm}0.0685$, $0.3450{\pm}0.0729$. SEM study showed the improved surfaces when subjected for polishing. Plaque accumulation percentage was the highest on roughened surface ($93.83{\pm}6.2552%$), followed by porcelain discs polished by commercial kits. Autoglazed surfaces found to be the best surfaces with the least plaque accumulation ($0.5237{\pm}0.4209%$). CONCLUSION. All the polishing kits used in the study reduced the average roughness by approximately 77%. Corrected porcelain surfaces should ideally be reglazed, alternatively, polish the surfaces before final cementation.

자가부식 접착제는 사용하기 쉽고, 술식 민감성이 적은 장점이 있으나 특히 산도가 약한 자가부식 접착제의 법랑질에 대한 결합력은 논란이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 2단계 자가부식 접착제인 Clearfil SE Bond (Kuraray, Okayama, Japan)의 연마 법랑질에 대한 미세인장 결합강도를 측정하여 3단계 산부식수세 접착제인 Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) 및 1단계 자가부식 접착제인 iBond (Heraeus Kulzer Gmbh, Hanau, Germany)의 결합강도와 비교하고자 하였고, 2단계 자가부식 접착제에 산부식 전처리를 시행하는 것이 법랑질에 대한 결합강도를 높일 수 있는지 알아 보고자 하였다. 실험군은 2단계 자가부식 접착제인 Clearfil SE Bond만 사용한 비산부식 군과 35% 인산 (Scotchbond Etchant, 3M ESPE)으로 산부식 후 Clearfil SE Bond를 사용한 산부식 군, 그리고 1단계 자가부식 접착제인 iBond를 사용한 군으로 나누었다. 대조군은 3단계 산부식수세 접착제인 Scotchbond Multi-Purpose를 사용한 군으로 정하였다. Bovine 전치의 순면을 십자가형으로 4등분하여 각 군으로 무작위로 배분하였다. 각 치아의 순면을 800-grit 실리콘 카바이드 지로 연마한 후 삭제된 법랑질면에 제조사의 설명서에 따라 각 군의 접착제를 적용하고 Light-Core (Bisco)로 적층 충전하였다. 시편은 $37i{\acute{E}}$, 증류수에 일주일 동안 보관한 후 low speed precicion diamond saw (TOPMENT Metsaw-LS, R&B, Daejeon, Korea)를 이용하여 약 $0.8{\times}0.8mm$ 단면이 되도록 시편을 절단하여 미세시편을 제작하였다. 일주일마다 증류수를 교환하면서 한 달, 세 달 동안 $37i{\acute{E}}$, 증류수에 미세시 편을 보관한 후 각각의 미세인장결합강도를 측정하였다. 미세인장결합강도 (MPa)는 파절 시에 가해진 힘 (N)을 접착면적 ($mm^2$)으로 나누어 계산하였다. 접착계면에서의 파절 양상은 실물현미경 (Microscope-B nocular, Nikon)을 이용하여 분류하였다. 미세인장결합강도에 대한 통계분석은 one-way ANOVA를 이용하여 유의수준 5%에서 검정하였고, 사후감정은 Least Significant Difference 방법을 이용하였다. 중합 후 1개월 뒤 측정된 각각의 접착제의 평균 미세인장결합강도는 유의수준 5%에서 모든 접착제 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3개월 뒤 측정된 각각의 접착제의 평균 미세인장결합강도는 유의수준 5%에서 iBond 와 Clearfil SE Bond 비산부식 군과 Scotchbond Multi- Purpose 간에는 각각 유의한 차이가 없었다. 본 연구에서는 2단계 자가부식 접착제인 Clearfil SE Bond의 연마 법랑질에 대한 미세인장결합강도가 3단계 산부식수세 접착제인 Scotchbond Multi-Purpose 와 비교하여 유의한 차이가 없었으며 (P>0.05), 3개월 후의 결과에서 Clearfil SE Bond 비산부식 군의 미세인장결합강도가 Clearfil SE Bond 산부식 군보다 유의하게 낮았다 (P<0.05). 즉 35% 인산으로 산부식 전처리를 시행한결과 Clearfil SE Bond 의 법랑질에 대한 결합강도가 증가하였다.

Objectives. The objectives of this study were: 1) to compare the effect of varying timing of light curing on shear bond strength, and; 2) to compare the shear bond strength of three self-adhesive cements. Materials and methods. A total of 72 extracted non-carious teeth were divided into 24 for Unicem tests, 24 for Maxcem tests, and 24 for Biscem tests; they were assigned 3 * 2 subgroups of 12 teeth each. The specimens were prepared as follows: 1) The calculus and periodontal ligament were removed from the teeth; 2) The teeth were stored in normal saline; 3) The occlusal enamel of each tooth was removed using high-speed coarse diamond burs under water cooling, and; 4) Finally, the teeth were flattened by 600-grit silicone carbide paper disks. Resin blocks were adhered using either Unicem, Maxcem, or Biscem. Light curing timing was divided into two groups: U10, M10, and B10 were exposed to light after 10 seconds, and; U150, M150, and B150 on the other side were exposed to light after 150 seconds. Shear bond strength was measured by a Universal testing machine with cross head speed of 1mm/min. T-test and One way ANOVA were used for the statistical analysis of data. Results. The shear bond strength of U150 was not significantly higher than that of U10 (U150: 20.55.7Mpa, U10: 18.73.80Mpa). On the other hand, the shear bond strength of M150 was significantly higher than that of M10. The shear bond strength of B150 was also significantly higher than that of B10 (M150:14.45.7Mpa, M10: 9.94.2Mpa, B150: 24.38.3Mpa, B10: 17.27.3Mpa). When the light curing timing was 10sec after bonding, the shear bond strength of Unicem was highest; the shear bond strength of Biscem was highest when the light curing timing was 150sec after bonding (U10: 18.73.80Mpa, B150: 24.38.3Mpa). Significance. Since Unicem is less sensitive based on light curing timing, dentists seem to use it without considering the light curing timing. Maxcem showed the lowest bonding strength (especially M10). Thus, when using Maxcem, dentists need to delay the light curing after adhesion.

이 연구는 새롭게 개발된 알카자이트 재료인 Cention N에 finishing처리를 한뒤에 표면 거칠기와 박테리아 부착에 대하여 조사하고자 함이다. 레진강화형 글래스아이오노머와 컴포짓트 레진, 알카자이트 재료를 원통형의 디스크 형태로 제작하였다(n = 48). 이 후 대조군과 3가지 카바이드버, 미세다이아몬드 버, 화이트스톤버의 피니싱 버에 따른 4가지 하위군으로 분류하였다. 표면 거칠기는 atomic force microscope으로 조사하였으며 표면관찰은 scanning electron microscope을 이용하여 진행하였다. 우식원성 미생물인 streptococcus mutans의 시편 부착을 위하여 CDC biofilm reactor를 사용하여 바이오필름을 배양한후 집락형성단위를 측정하였다. 레진과 Cention N의 아무처리 하지 않은 컨트롤 군의 표면 거칠기는 통계적으로 유의하게 피니싱 처리된 시편들보다 거칠었다. 하지만 표면 거칠기와 미생물 부착사이의 상관관계는 매우 약했다(PCC = 0.13). RMGI와 Cention N은 레진시편에 비해 미생물 부착이 적게 일어났다. Cention N은 피니싱만으로도 임상적으로 허용되는 수준인 0.2 ㎛ 이하의 거칠기를 보였으며 이온 방출 성질로 미생물 부착이 레진과 비교시 적은 것을 확인할수 있었다.
