Liquid molding processes, such as resin transfer molding, involve resin flow through a porous medium inside a mold cavity. Numerical analysis of resin flow and mold filling is a very useful means for optimization of the manufacturing process. However, the numerical analysis is quite time consuming and requires a great deal of effort, since a separate numerical calculation is needed for every set of material properties, part size and injection conditions. The efforts can be appreciably reduced if similarity solutions are used instead of repeated numerical calculations. In this study, the similarity relations for pressure, resin velocity and flow front propagation are proposed to correlate another desired case from the already obtained numerical result. In other words, the model gives a correlation of flow induced variables between two different cases. The model was verified by comparing results obtained by the similarity relation and by independent numerical simulation.

The rapid thermal response (RTR) molding is a novel process developed to raise the temperature of mold surface rapidly to the polymer melt temperature prior to the injection stage and then cool rapidly to the ejection temperature. The resulting filling process is achieved inside a hot mold cavity by prohibiting formation of frozen layer so as to enable thin wall injection molding without filling difficulty. The present work covers flow simulation of thin wall injection molding using the RTR molding process. In order to take into account the effects of thermal boundary conditions of the RTR mold, coupled analysis with transient heat transfer simulation is suggested and compared with conventional isothermal analysis. The proposed coupled simulation approach based on solid elements provides reliable thin wall flow estimation for both the conventional molding and the RTR molding processes.

Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a tailor-made material that is used as a filling material in dentistry. GIC is cured by an acid-base reaction consisting of a glass filler and ionic polymers. When the glass filler and ionic polymers are mixed, ionic bonds of the material itself are formed. In addition, the extra polymer anion reacts with calcium in enamel or dentin to increase adhesion to the tooth tissue. GICs are widely used as adhesives for artificial crowns or orthodontic brackets, and are also used as tooth repair material, cavity liner, and filling materials. In this review, the current status of GIC research and development and its prospects for the future have been discussed in detail.

It was confirmed that when phosphor slurry is formed in the cavity of an elastic mold, the pressure distribution of the phosphor slurry varies as a function of the major squeegee parameters (squeegee angle, squeegee velocity, and the viscosity of the phosphor slurry). The higher the slurry viscosity, the faster the squeegee velocity, and the smaller the squeegee angle, the higher the filling completeness of the phosphor slurry. The optimum conditions for complete filling of the phosphor slurry were found when the squeegee angle was between 30 to 45 degrees, squeegee velocity at 40 to 70mm/sec, and the viscosity of the phosphor slurry composite was at 6,556 cps (i.e. phosphor content around 50 wt. %).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the microleakage of root-end filling material filled in blood contaminated root-end cavity and self-etching adhesive placed over blood contaminated resected root apices without root-end preparation. Extracted, human maxillary incisors, canines and mandibular premolar were randomly divided into four groups of 15 teeth each. After canal preparation, resection of the apex and root-end preparation, MTA and IRM were filled in the root-end cavity (A and B group). After canal preparation and resection of the apex, Clearfil SE Bond and Prompt L-Pop were applied over the contaminated root-end surfaces (C and D group). The roots were then subjected to 15cm of water pressure to simulate periapical microleakage stress. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The results were as follows : 1. All groups showed a tendency of decreasing microleakage in process of time after 2weeks later except IRM group. 2. After 2 weeks and 1 month, MTA group showed less microleakage significantly than other groups(p<0.05). After 2 months, Prompt L-Pop group showed less microleakage significantly than other groups(p<0.05). 3. After 9 months, there were no significant differences among four groups(p>0.05). Thus it is considered that apical sealing using adhesives system without root-end preparation is good method in endodontic surgery.

본 실험에서는 광중합형 임시충전재의 사용기간(1일 후, 3일 후, 7일 후)동안 구강 내의 수분과 온도변화 및 교합력에 의한 미세누출의 가능성을 알아보기 위하여 무게 및 압축강도를 측정하고 열 순환 횟수에 따라 충전재와 와동면 사이의 미세누출을 평가하고자 2종의 광중합형 임시충전재를 사용하여 실험한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 광중합형 임시충전재는 사용기간에 따라 측정한 무게는 증가되었다. 제품 간의 비교결과는 Quicks의 무게가 더 높게 나타났다. 2. Spacer의 압축강도는 사용기간에 따라 유의한 차이가 있으나 Quicks의 압축강도에서는 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 유의한 차이를 보인 Spacer에서는 3일차에서 압축강도가 크게 증가되었다. 3. 열 순환 횟수에 따른 미세누출은 7,000번 실시한 군에서 미세노출이 가장 높게 나타났고, 1,000번 실시한 군과 3,000번 실시한 군은 7,000번 실시한 군보다 통계학적으로 낮은 미세누출을 나타내었다. 4. 사용기간에 따른 무게와 압축강도 및 미세누출사이의 상호연관성이 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 사용기간 경과에 따라 미세누출의 증가를 가져왔으나 수복 후 시간이 경과함에 따라 미세누출이 증가하는 것은 자명한 사실이므로 향후 광중합형 임시충전재의 미세누출을 평가를 위해서는 습식분석을 통하여 화학적 결합을 유도하는 재료의 조성을 분석하는 방법을 부여하는 것이 미세누출 평가에 적절하다고 사료된다.

This study was performed to evaluate the sealing ability of various retrograde filling materials by using bacterial penetration and dye penetration test. One hundred and forty extracted human teeth with single, straight canals and mature apiece were collected and used for this study. All canals were instrumented using an engine driven Ni-Ti file (ProFile). After removing 3mm from the apex of tooth, a standardized 3mm root end cavity was prepared using an ultrasonic instrument. The 70 teeth were randomly divided into 7 groups : 6 groups for retrograde filling using Super-EBA, ZOE, Chelon-Silver, IRM, ZPC and amalgam. The 7th group was used as a negative control. Nail varnish was applied to all external root surfaces to the level of the reseated root ends to prevent lateral microleakages. The specimens were then sterilized in an ethylene oxide sterilizer for 24 hours. 2 mm of the reseated root was immersed in a culture chamber containing a Tripticase Soy Broth with a phenol red indicator. The coronal access of each specimen was inoculated every 72 hours with suspension of Proteus vulgaris. The culture media were observed every 24hours for color change indicating bacterial contamination. The specimens were observed for 4weeks. The remaining 70 teeth were submitted to a dye penetration test. The canals of all teeth were first sealed with AH26 and obturated using an Obtura II system. Root resection, root end preparation and retrograde filling was performed as above. All specimens were suspended in 2% methylene blue dye for 72 hours before being ion gitudinally split. The degree of dye penetration was then measured using a stereomicroscope at 10 magnification and evaluated. The results were as floows : 1. In the bacterial penetration, the degree of leakage was the lowest in the Super-EBA, followed by, in ascending order, ZOE, Chelon-Silver IRM and ZPC. The amalgam showed highest bacterial leakage of all(p<0.01). 2. In the dye penetration, the degree of microleakage was the lowest in the Chelon-Silver and Super-EBA, followed by, in ascending order, IRM, ZPC. The ZOE and amalgam showed the highest microleakage of all (p<0.05). These results suggested that the eugenol based cement, Super-EBA, have excellent sealing ability as a retrograde filling material.

목 적: 구강암 환자의 방사선 치료시 기존 강내 충전물인 Mouth piece, Putty 인상제와 자체 제작한 Paraffin Wax를 비교하여 그 유용성을 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 재료별 충전물을 $10{\times}10{\times}1cm$의 크기로 제작하여 물(물 등가 팬텀)을 기준으로 선량 감쇠율을 측정하였으며, 구강암 환자 중 충전물별 각 2명씩을 대상으로 Aria system의 offline review 프로그램으로 DRR (Digitally Reconstructed Radiograph)과 각 5회 촬영한 Portal vision을 비교하여 고정기구로서의 재현성을 확인하였다. 원통형 팬텀(phantom)을 제작하여 치료 계획시 불가피 하게 충전물이 조사야 내에 포함되는 경우의 흡수선량 변화에 따른 MU (monitor unit) 차이를 비교하였다. 결 과: 선량감쇠율은 Mouth piece (Air) 6 MV +3.5%, 10 MV -0.7%, Paraffin 6 MV +0.34%, 10 MV +0.31%, Putty 6 MV -2.31%, 10 MV -1.76%로 측정되었다. 자세 재현성은 Mouth piece ${\pm}3mm$, Paraffin ${\pm}2mm$, Putty ${\pm}2mm$의 오차를 나타내었다. $5{\times}4{\times}2.5cm$ 크기의 충전물이 조사야 내에 포함되는 경우의 흡수선량 변화에 따른 선속의 MU 차이는 6 MV 계산시 Water 232 MU를 기준으로 백분율 환산시 Paraffin -0.9% (230 MU), Putty +7.8% (250 MU)의 증감을 나타내었다. 결 론: 기존 Mouth piece의 경우 상악과 하악을 이격시킴에는 문제가 없으나 구강내 구조물을 반영하지 못해 재현성을 확신하지 못하고 공동과 조직 사이의 계면선량이 감소하는 단점이 있었다. 그에 반해 Putty 인상제는 자세재현성이나 구강을 충전함에 있어 우수함을 알 수 있으나, 물에 비해 두께 1 cm당 약 -2.3%의 선량감쇠가 발생해 선량계획에 있어 불리하고 정상조직에 불필요한 과선량이 조사되었다. Paraffin의 경우 지방과 유사한 조직등가물질로 선량감쇠가 적고, 구강내 구조물을 반영한 맞춤형 제작이 가능해 재현성이 우수하며 강내 공동을 충분히 충전시켜 병변에 목적한 선량을 전달하는데 가장 이상적인 재료라 사료된다.

To evaluate the marginal leakage in Class V cavity this study has been undertaken to compare the sandwich technique with the conventional method, and find out the effect of lining material, lining method, and polishing time on sandwich technique. Ninty extracted teeth were divided into eight test groups and a control group, and were prepared with a buccal Class V cavity. Four test groups were lined with Dentin Cement whereas the other four test groups were lined with Vitrabond. Half of the either group were lined 0.5mm short of the carvosurface margin and the rest were lined completely to the carvosurface margin. The four subgroups were further divided into specimens which were polished immediately and 24 hours after resin filling. The polished specimens were immersed in $37^{\circ}C$, 0.5% methylene blue solution for 24 hous after thermocycling at $5^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$, 200 times and buccolingually sectioned. The sectioned specimens were examined dye penetration under the light microscope. The following results were obtained, 1. At the enamel margin, the conventional method showed a lower microleakage than the sandwich technique. The difference between the control and Vitrabond group was statistically significant(P<0.05), but no difference between the control and Dentin Cement group, and between the lining materials was observed. 2. At the dentinal margin, the sandwich technique showed a significant lower amount of microleakage (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the lining materials. 3. Regardless of the lining material, lining method, and polishing time used, values of microleakage were significantly higher at the dentinal margin compared to the enamel margin(P<0.05). 4. In specimens till the cavosurface margin, microleakage at the dentinal margin was less with the light-cured base than with the chemically-cured base, but there was no siginificantly difference between the lining materials regarding the lining method and polishing time. 5. The lining material, lining method, and polishing time did not affect the amount of micro leakage in the sandwich technique(P<0.05).
