The present study was performed to evaluate the surface roughness and effect of Tetracycline-HCI on the change of implant surface microstructure according to application time. Ti$O_2$ surface Implant was utilized. Implant surface was rubbed with 50mg/ml Tetracycline-HCI solution for 0.5min, 1min, 1.5min, 2min, 2.5min and 3min respectively in the Tetracycline-HCI group. Then, specimens were measured surface roughness and processed for scanning electron microscopic observation. The results of this study were as follows. 1. Ti$O_2$ blast implant surface showed increased surface roughness 1.5 minute after treatment with Tetracycline-HCI. But, there were not significant differences in saline group after treatment. 2. Tetracycline-HCI group showed changed surface micro-morphology in SEM after 1.5 minute. There were not significant differences in saline group after treatment. 3. Between Tetracycline-HCI group and saline group, there were difference in surface roughness change and SEM micro-morphology. Tetracycline-HCI have influence on Ti$O_2$ blast implant surface. In conclusion, the detoxification with 50mg/ml Tetracycline-HCI must be applied respectively with different time according to various implant surfaces.

The purpose of this was to evaluate the in vitro effects of different application modes of tetracycline HCI on dentin root surfaces. The study group was comprised of 30 teeth with advanced periodontal disease extracted before the start of periodontal therapy. The diseased root surface was vigorously root planed to expose dentin. The teeth were sectioned and cotton pellets. soaked in a saturated solution of tetracycline HCI, were either "placed" or "burnished" on the prepared root surface for 3, 5 min. respectively. Control surfaces were similarly treated with root planing only. Following the various treatments, teeth were fixed. dehydrated, critical point dried, and coated for scanning electron microscopic(SEM) evaluation. The surfaces of tetracycline HCI treated specimens considerably differed from specimens treated with root planing only. Results demonstrated that root-planed, no-tetracycline HCI specimens had amorphous, irregular surface which corresponded to a smear layer. Tetracycline HCI specimens exhibited collagen fibers and dentinal tubules exposed by the removal of the smear layer. Although some differences were seen in surface structures among some specimens. "burnished" application causes more extensive change than "placed" application, and application time of the tetracycline HCl did not seem to have any major impact on the surface morphology.

The purpose of this study was to compare effects of demineralization of citric acid and tetracycline HCI on periodontally involved root surface. Twelve periodontally involved single rooted teeth were used. After scaling and root planing, root conditioning with citric acid and tetracycline HCI were carried and the teeth were processed scanning electron microscopic observation.The results were as follows: The scaled root surface was covered by much debris and calculus. The effect of demineralization of citric acid and tetracycline HCI was more reduced on scaling group than root planing group, because of hypermineralization of cementum surface and demineralization effect on root surface of tetracycline HCI showed tendency to reduction. The root planed group displayed more smooth root surface than scaling group, the surface was covered by smear layer, thus no exposure of dentinal tubule opening and collagen fiber, especially after root planing, citric acid and tetracycline HCl treated group showed exposure of dentinal tubule and collagen fiber, thus it was thought that new connective tissue attachment could be acquired.

Recently, alteration on chemical treatment on the root and removal of pathologic bacteria, which is the main reason for periodontal disease, by complete removal of infected cementum layer was been emphasied In this study, teeth extracted due to periodontal disease were root planed using periodontal curette and roto bur. Then they were treated with different concentration of Tetracycline HCI at different time. The state of root surface and change in the pre and post treatment was observed. The results were as follows. 1. The group treatment with periodontal curette and saline showed remaining plaque, debris and irregular surface and no dentianl tubule orifice could be seen. 2. The group treatment with periodontal curette and tetracycline HCI showed process compoed with decacified material and there was concanity seemed to be a lacunae of cementocyte. 3. The group treatment with roto bur and saline, there was no remaning plaque and partial dentinal tubule orifice could be seen but smear layer covering them.4. The group treatment with roto bur and tetracycline HCI showed various shape and size dentinal tubule orifice could be seen. From the results, roto bur showed cleaner surfaces than treatment with periodontal curette. But still smear layer existed. Thus for regeneration of periodontal tissue, chemical treatment using tetracycline HCI should follow roto bur treatment. And it is considered that the treatment time is more important than the concentration of tetracycline HCl.

Mechanical and chemical methods are the two ways to treat the implant surfaces. By using mechanical method, it is difficult to eliminate bacteria and by-products from the rough implant surface and it can also cause the structural change to the implant surface. Therefore, chemical method is widely used in order to preserve and detoxicate the implant surface more effectively. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of tetracylcline-hydrochloride(TC-HCI) on the change of implant surface microstructure according to application time. Implants with pure titanium machined surface, SLA surface and porous surface were used in this study. Implant surface was rubbed with sponge soaked in 50mg/ml TC-HCI solution for $\frac{1}{2}$ min., 1 min., $1\frac{1}{2}$ min., 2 min., and $2\frac{1}{2}$ min. respectively in the test group and with no treatment in the control group. Then, specimens were processed for scanning electron microscopic observation. 1. Both test and control group showed a few shallow grooves and ridges in pure titanium machined surface implants. There were not significant differences between two groups. 2. In the SLA surfaces, the control specimen showed that the macro roughness was achieved by large-grit sandblasting. Subsequently, the acid-etching process created the micro roughness, which thus was superimposed on the macro roughness. Irrespective of the application time of 50mg/ml TC-HCI solution, in general, test specimens were similar to control. 3. In the porous surfaces, the control specimen showed spherical particles of titanium alloy and its surface have a few shallow ridges. The roughness of surfaces conditioned with tetracycline-HCI was lessened and seen crater-like irregular surfaces relative to the application time. In conclusion, pure titanium machined surfaces and SLA surfaces weren't changed irrespective of the application time of tetracycline-HCI solution. But the porous surfaces conditioned with tetracycline-HCI solution began to be slightly changed from 2 min. This results are expected to be applied to the regenerative procedures for peri-implantitis treatment.
