introduction: in restorative dentistry, selecting the proper material is an important factor for clinical success. the objective of this study was clinical evaluation of survival time of three tooth color materials in primary anterior teeth. methods: in this interventional clinical trial study, 94 deciduous anterior teeth (36 teeth in boys, 58 teeth in girls) belonging to 3-5 year old children ...

OBJECTIVE To do a comparative study of microleakage of glass ionomer cement (GIC) and chitosan modified glass ionomer cement and evaluate which exhibited lesser microleakage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty freshly extracted sound primary molar teeth were obtained. Two groups of samples were created for the study which comprised of group I (glass ionomer cement-GIC) and group II (Chitosan modifie...

This paper reviews the causes of barodontalgia and reports on a study that indicates a possible cause of barodontalgia in the diver. In the study, extracted teeth had full cast crowns cemented with either a zinc phosphate, a glass ionomer, or a resin cement, and simulated diving to 30 m (3.0 atmospheres) was performed. During simulated diving, the teeth were pressure cycled 15 times to 3 atmosp...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the dislodgement strengths and fracture types for reattached tooth fragments using a light-cured composite resin material, a hybrid light-cured glass ionomer base, and a hybrid light-cured glass ionomer liner. METHODS Seventy-five bovine incisor teeth were fractured, randomly divided into three groups of equal number, and then luted back togeth...

It is thought that externally applied bleaching agents may penetrate into the pulp chamber. This study was conducted to evaluate the diffusion of peroxide bleaching agents into the pulp chamber of teeth restored with various restorative materials. Sixty-five human extracted anterior maxillary teeth were separated into the 13 groups containing 5 teeth. Five teeth (control group) were not subject...

To evaluate cytotoxicity of experimental conventional and resin modified glass-ionomer cements on UMR-106 osteoblast cell cultures and cell cultures of NIH(3)T(3) mouse fibroblasts specimens were prepared for every experimental material and divided into: group 1.Conventional glass-ionomer cements: GC Fuji IX GP Fast, GC Fuji Triage and Ketac Silver; group 2. Resin modified glass-ionomer cements...

Previous studies indicated that toxic components can be released from glass ionomer cements and diffuse through dentinal tubules into the pulp. This in vitro study compared the cytotoxic effects produced to pulpal fibroblasts by the leachables of the primer systems and the diffusates through dentin of four resin-reinforced glass ionomer cements (Vitremer Tri Cure System, Dyract-Prime & Bond 2.0...

INTRODUCTION The difference in preventing dentine lesion development between resin-based and glass ionomer sealant materials is unclear. Two recently published reviews were unable to conclude on the difference because the comparison was an exclusion criterion in one review and there were statistical shortcomings in the relevant papers in the other (Cochrane) review. OBJECTIVES The aim of the ...
