The colour stability of various glass ionomer cementsKarjiker, Farzana January 2019 (has links)
>Magister Scientiae - MSc / Introduction: Together with bonding to both enamel and dentine, an ideal restorative material would display physical properties similar to that of natural tooth tissue and would not be prone to degradation as a result of the oral environment. This includes changes in colour. Glass ionomer technology has undergone many changes to its original chemistry since it was developed in the early 1970’s. In 1988 resin-modified glass ionomers were introduced and in 2008, nano-ionomers were introduced. As a result of the progression in material sciences and the use of more sophisticated techniques and methods in restorative dentistry, it is possible to accomplish much improved aesthetics and functional durability of a restoration, both anteriorly and posteriorly. However, for as long as aesthetic restorations have been available, and in spite of advances in material structure and performance, one of the greatest challenges facing clinicians still remains that aesthetic restorations have to be replaced relatively frequently as staining and discolouration is a common problem. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to determine the stainability of four resin-modified glass ionomers and one glass ionomer cement when exposed to a staining broth. Objectives: To record any change in colour before and after exposing the sample with the staining broth using a spectrophotometer, to compare the stainability, to examine the depth of staining using a light microscope and to observe the particle size of the powder and the surface texture using Scanning Electron Microscopy of the four resin- modified glass ionomer cements and one glass ionomer cement. Materials and Methods: Four resin-modified glass ionomers (one nano-ionomer) and one glass ionomer (zinc-reinforced ionomer) were selected. All were shade A2, except for Vitremer™ which was not available in A2. 15 discs of each material were prepared. The discs were 15 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness. All the materials were handled and cured according to the manufacturers’ instructions. After curing, only one side of each disc was polished using Sof-Lex™ discs (3M ESPE, USA). The unpolished side of each disc was designated as a matrix finish. The specimens were all immersed in distilled water at 37 °C for one week. They were then immersed in a staining broth for a period of one week and readings were taken after a period of 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours and one week. Colour was read on each side of each disc at the indicated intervals with a spectrophotometer. The colour difference was calculated using the CIELAB colour co-ordinates. Sample discs were then sectioned to determine the depth of staining. An additional sample disc of each material was made for observation with the SEM and was therefore not stained. Also, an unmixed sample of each material was prepared for examination with the SEM. Results: In general, for all materials there was an increase in staining when assessed with the colour difference between the baseline colour and the 7 day reading. Ketac™ N100, showed the highest total colour change of 43.84 for the unpolished surface followed by Riva™ which showed the total colour change of 28.55 for the unpolished surface. This was similar to Fuji II LC® which had a total colour change of 28.16 for the unpolished surface. For Vitremer™, the total colour change increased to 18.07 for the unpolished surface. For the unpolished surfaces, ChemFil™ Rock showed the least colour difference from baseline to 7 days (ΔE*ab = 10.45), followed by Vitremer™ (ΔE*ab = 18.07). Both Fuji II LC® and Riva™ Light Cure showed similar colour change from baseline to 7 days for unpolished surfaces (ΔE*ab of 28.16 and 28.55 respectively). Ketac™ N100 showed the highest staining after 7 days in the staining broth with a colour difference of 43.84. For the polished surfaces, the colour change for Fuji II LC® was 25.72 which was similar to Riva™ Light Cure which was 22.44 and Ketac™ N100 which showed a colour change of 22.79 on the polished surface. ChemFil™ Rock showed the least colour change of 17.69 for the polished surface followed by Vitremer™ which showed a colour change of 23.63 for the polished surface. Thus, for both the unpolished and polished surfaces there was a similar staining pattern. Conclusion: In this study it was demonstrated that all products evaluated in this study showed some degree of staining when exposed to a staining broth when evaluated using the ΔE*ab CIELAB colour evaluation. Ketac™ N100 showed the highest colour change compared to the other materials, but the reason for this was not explored. Both Vitremer™ and ChemFil™ Rock showed similar patterns of staining. / 2020-09-01

Preparation and Evaluation of Antibacterial Dental Glass-ionomer CementsGuo, Xia 22 October 2010 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The functional quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) and their constructed polyQAS or PQAS were synthesized, characterized and formulated into a novel antibacterial glass-ionomer cement. Compressive strength (CS) and Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) viability were used to evaluate the mechanical strength and antibacterial activity of the cements. Fuji II LC cement was used as control. The specimens were conditioned in distilled water at 37 oC for 24 h prior to testing. The effects of the substitute chain length, loading as well as grafting ratio of the QAS and aging on CS and S. mutans viability were investigated.
Chapter 2 describes how we studied and evaluated the formulated antibacterial glass-ionomer cement by incorporating QAS chloride-containing polymer into the formulation. The results show that with PQAS addition, the studied cements showed a reduction in CS with 25-95% for Fuji II LC and 13-78% for the experimental cement and a reduction in S. mutans viability with 40-79% for Fuji II LC and 40-91% for the experimental cement. The experimental cement showed less CS reduction and higher antibacterial activity as compared to Fuji II LC. The long-term aging study indicates that the cements are permanently antibacterial with no PQAS leaching.
Chapter 3 describes how we studied and evaluated the formulated antibacterial cements by changing chain length, type of halide, loading, grafting ratio and aging time. The results show that the effects of the chain length, loading and grafting ratio of the QAS were significant. Increasing chain length, loading, grafting ratio significantly enhanced antibacterial activity but reduced CS. The experimental cement showed less CS reduction and higher antibacterial activity as compared to Fuji II LC. The long-term aging study indicates that the cements are permanently antibacterial with no PQAS leaching. There was no significant difference between QAS bromide and QAS chloride, suggesting that we can use QAS bromide directly without converting bromide to chloride.
In summary, we have developed a novel PQAS-containing antibacterial glass-ionomer cement. The cement has demonstrated significant antibacterial activities. Our experimental cement is a promising system because the reduced strength of the cement with addition of PQAS is still above those demonstrated by original commercial cement Fuji II LC without any PQAS addition. It appears that the experimental cement is a clinically attractive dental restorative that can be potentially used for long-lasting restorations due to its high mechanical strength and permanent antibacterial function.

Para avaliação da temperatura interna e superficial foi confeccionada uma matriz a partir de um incisivo bovino. A temperatura superficial foi aferida no grupo controle (TSC) e no grupo experimental (TSU) por meio de uma câmera termográfica infravermelha, calibrada e fixada há 15 cm do espécime, a qual captou as variações de temperatura por 80s. Para aferir a temperatura no interior do material, uma cânula de nylon foi inserida via abertura do conduto radicular do dente bovino até atingir o interior do CIV inserido na matriz, na qual foi adaptado um termômetro de vareta digital portátil. Após US por 45s, nos grupos controle (TIC) e experimental (TIU), a temperatura interna foi aferida em 0, 45, e 120s, totalizando 2 min após a inserção do material na cavidade. A temperatura transmitida à câmara pulpar durante a aplicação de US por 45s foi avaliada em 48 pré-molares humanos, os quais tiveram seus ápices seccionados para remoção da polpa, substituída por uma pasta condutora de calor. Foram divididos nos grupos: controle (KC), experimental (KU), controle (VC) e experimental (VU). Após a realização das restaurações na face vestibular dos dentes, estas receberam a aplicação de US por 45s e fotopolimerização por 40s para o grupo VU. Através da abertura dos condutos radiculares dos dentes, um termístor foi inserido até entrar em contato com a parede interna da superfície vestibular, possibilitando a captação... / The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro the effect of ultrasound (US) application in the production of heat at the surface and inside the glass ionomer cement (GIC) Ketac Molar Easymix, as well the temperature transmitted to the pulp chamber through restorations of Ketac Molar Easymix (K) and Vitremer (V) after ultrasound application. For evaluation of the internal and surface temperature was made a matrix of one bovine incisor. The surface temperature was measured in the control group (STC) and the experimental group (STU) through an infrared thermographic camera, calibrated and fixed for 15 cm of the specimen, which raised the temperature variations for 80s. In order to measure the temperature inside the material, a nylon cannula was inserted through opening of the root canal bovine tooth until the interior of the GIC inserted into the array, which was adapted an portable digital thermometer. After US for 45s, in the control group (ITC) and experimental group (ITU), the internal temperature was measured at 0, 45, and 120s, totaling 2 minutes after material insertion in the cavity. The temperature transmitted to the pulp chamber during the application of ultrasound for 45s was evaluated in 48 human premolars, which had their apices disconnected to remove the pulp, replaced by a heat-conductive paste. They were divided into groups: control (KC), experimental (KU), control (VC) and experimental (VU). After performing of the restorations on the vestibular surface of the teeth, they received the ultrasound application for 45s and photopolymerization for 40s for the group VU. Through the opening of the root canal tooth, a thermistor was inserted until contact with the inner wall of the vestibular surface, allowing the collection of temperature variations. After verification of normality in the STC, STU, ITC, ITU groups... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
