In this study, the wear characteristics of five different dental composite resins cured by conventional halogen light and LED light sources were investigated. Five different dental composite resins of Surefil, Z100, Dyract AP, Fuji II LC and Compoglass were worn against a zirconia ceramic ball using a pin-on-disk type wear tester with 15 N contact force in a reciprocal sliding motion of sliding distance of 10 mm/cycle at 1Hz under the room temperature dry condition. The wear variations of dental composite resins were linearly increased as the number of cycles increased. It was observed that the wear resistances of these specimens were in the order of Dyract AP > Surefil > Compoglass > Z100 > Fuji II LC. On the morphological observations by SEM, the large crack formation on the sliding track of Fuji ?LC specimen was the greatest among all resin composites. Dyract AP showed less wear with few surface damage. There is no significant difference in wear performance between conventional halogen light curing and light emitting diodes curing sources. It indicates that a light emitting diodes (LED) source can replace a halogen light source as curing unit for composite resin restorations.

본 연구는 LED와 플라즈마 광원의 복합레진의 중합시 완속기시 중합방식(soft-start curing)이 수축응력에 미치는 효과를 비교, 평가하고자 하였다. 할로겐 광원으로 40초간 조사하여 복합레진을 중합한 경우와 LED와 플라즈마 광원의 단일광도 중합방식과 완속기시 중합방식으로 할로겐 40초 동안의 광에너지와 총량이 동일하도록 조사시간을 설정하였고 수축응력은 스트레인 게이지(Strain gauge)를 사용하여 측정하였다. 발생되는 수축응력을 비교, 분석 및 평가한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 모든 군에서 중합 후 200초까지 수축응력이 급격하게 증가하였으나 이후 마지막 측정시간인 800초까지 완만한 증가를 보였다(P<0.05). 2. LED와 플라즈마 광원의 완속기시 중합방법이 단일광도 중합방법에 비해 수축응력이 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 3. 할로겐 광원과 LED와 플라즈마 광원의 완속기시 중합의 수축응력 비교에는 유의차가 없었다(P>0.05). 완속기시 중합 방식을 사용할 경우 단일광도 중합 방식보다 수축응력을 감소시킬 수 있어 임상적으로 고광도 광원인 LED와 플라즈마 광원의 경우 완속기시 중합 방식의 사용이 유리하다고 보여진다. 그러나 완속기시 중합시 불충분한 중합을 방지하기 위해서는 완속기시를 보완하는 추가적인 중합시간이 요구될 것으로 사료된다.

현재 광중합 복합레진은 치아의 수복을 위하여 많이 사용되며 복합레진이 많이 사용되는 만큼 광중합을 위한 광중합기도 다양하게 사용된다. 하지만 광중합기에 따른 복합레진의 미세누출은 아직 연구대상이다. 본 연구의 목적은 광중합기에 따라 발생하는 미세누출에 대한 평가를 하는 것으로 최근에 개발된 광중합기의 중합능력을 전통적 인 할로겐 광중합기와 비교하는 것이다. 전통적으로 사용되어지던 저출력 할로겐 광중합기(Optilux 360), 일반 플라즈마 아크 광중합기(Flipo). 저발열 플라즈마 아크 광중합기 (Aurys), 고출력 LED 광중합기 (Freelight 2)를 사용하였다. 건전한 유구치에 와동을 형성한 후 복합레진(Z100)을 동일한 레진 접착제 (Scotchbond Multi-Purpose)를 사용하여 충전한 후 각 광중합기를 이용하여 복합레진을 중합시켰다. 광중합기의 광조사 시간은 제조사에서 복합레진의 광중합을 위해 권장하는 시간으로 Optilux 360은 40초, Flipo는 5초, Aurys는 9초, Freelight 2는 20초간 조사하였다. Optilux 360만 광강도의 변화가 없는 광조사 방식이며 그 외 광중합기들은 광강도가 광조사 중에 증가되는 soft-start 광조사 방식이다. 각 시편을 증류수에 24시간 보관 후 열 순환을 1000회 시행한 후 2% methylene blue용액으로 색소침투를 시켰으며 각 시편을 절단하여 색소침투 정도를 점수화시켜 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 미세누출을 각 점수화하였을 때 Aurys가 평균 0.95로 가장 낮은 값을 보였고 Freelight 2(1.05), Flipo(1.25), Optilux 360(1.30)의 순이었다. 하지만 각 광중합기군 간의 값에서는 통계학적인 유의성은 관찰되지 않았다(P>0.05).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the microleakage of class II composite resin inlays and compare them with the conventional light-cured resin filling restorations. Class II cavities were prepared in 60 extracted human molars with which cervical margins were located below 1.0mm at the cemento-enamel junction using No. 701 tapered fissure carbide bur. All of the prepared cavities were restored as follows and divided into 6 groups. Group I and 2 were restored using direct filling technique and group 3,4,5 and 6 were restored using direct inlay technique that was cemented with dual-cured resin cements. group I: Cavities were restored with light-curing composite resin, Brilliant Lux. group 2. Cavities were restored with light-curing composite resin, Clearfil PhotoPosterior. group 3: Cavities were restored with Clearfil CR Inlay and heat treated at $125^{\circ}C$ for 7 minutes. group 4: Cavities were restored with same material as group 3 and heat treated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 15 minutes. group 5: Cavities were restored with Brilliant (Indirect esthetic system) and heat treated at $125^{\circ}C$ for 7 minutes. group 6: Cavities were restored with same material as group 5 and heat treated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 15 minutes. All specimens were polished with same method and thermocycled between $6^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$, then immersed in a bath of 2.0% aqueous solution of basic fuchsin dye for 24 hours. Dyed specimens were sectioned longitudinally and dye penetration degree was read on a scale of 0 to 4 by Tani and Buonocore's method 45). The results were as follows: 1. Microleakage was observed rather at the cervical margins than at the occlusal margins in all groups. 2. Composite resin inlay groups showed significantly less leakage than direct filling groups at the cervical margins (p < 0.001). 3. In composite resin inlay groups, there was no significant difference in microleakage between specimens by heat treating temperature and time (p > 0.05). 4. There was no significant difference in leakage between each groups at the occlusal margins (p > 0.05).

PURPOSE. The aim was to evaluate the effect of curing mode and different dentin surface pretreatment on microtensile bond strength (${\mu}TBS$) of self-adhesive resin cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Thirty-six extracted human permanent molars were sectioned horizontally exposing flat dentin surface. The teeth were divided into 12 groups (3 teeth/group) according to the dentin surface pretreatment methods (control, 18% EDTA, 10% Polyacrylic acid) and curing mode (self-curing vs. light-curing) of cement. After pretreatment, composite resin blocks were cemented with the following: (a) G-CEM LinkAce; (b) RelyX U200, followed by either self-curing or light-curing. After storage, the teeth were sectioned and ${\mu}TBS$ test was performed using a microtensile testing machine. The data was statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Student T-test and Scheffe's post-hoc test at P<.05 level. RESULTS. For G-CEM LinkAce cement groups, polyacrylic acid pretreatment showed the highest ${\mu}TBS$ in the self-cured group. In the light-cured group, no significant improvements were observed according to the dentin surface pretreatment. There were no significant differences between curing modes. Both dentin surface pretreatment methods helped to increase the ${\mu}TBS$ of RelyX U200 resin cement significantly and degree of pretreatment effect was similar. No significant differences were found regarding curing modes except control groups. In the comparisons of two self-adhesive resin cements, all groups within the same pretreatment and curing mode were significantly different excluding self-cured control groups. CONCLUSION. Selecting RelyX U200 used in this study and application of dentin surface pretreatment with EDTA and polyacrylic acid might be recommended to enhance the bond strength of cement to dentin.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the microleakage of 5 curing methods in class V composite restorations which are composed of two-step light curing, pulse-delay cure, low curing-light intensity, moderate curing-light intensity and high curing-light intensity. In this study, class V cavities were prepared on buccal and lingual surfaces of 50 extracted human upper or lower molars on cementum margin. Single Bond adhesive and Z-100 shade A2 were applied for each group following the manufacture's instruction. The experimental teeth were randomly divided into 5 groups of 10 samples (20 surfaces) each. Group 1: two-step light curing; Group 2: pulse-delay cure; Group 3: low curing-light intensity; Group 4: moderate curing-light intensity; Group 5: high curing-light intensity. After 500 thermocycling between $5^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$, the 60 teeth were placed in 2% methylene blue dye for 24 hours, then rinsed with tab water. The specimens were embedded in clear resin, then sectioned buccolingually through the center of restoration with a low speed diamond saw. The dye penetration on each of the specimen was then observed with a stereomicroscope at ${\times}20$. The composite resin/tooth interfaces were examined under Scanning Electron Microscopy. The results were statistically analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis One Way ANOVA and Dunn's Method. The results of this study were as follows. 1. In all groups, the leakage values seen at the enamel margin were significantly lower than those seen at the dentin margin(P<0.05). 2. No group in this study showed significant differences in leakage values at both the enamel and the dentin margins(P<0.05). 3. In all groups, the gaps seen at the enamel margin were significantly lower than those seen at the dentin margin(P<0.05). 4. The gaps in this study showed significant differences and two-step light-curing and low curing-light intensity produced significant less gap than high curing-light intensity(P<0.05).
