Retention of prefabricated posts with dental adhesive and composite.

Sixty-three No. 4 Dentatus threaded posts were cemented in extracted teeth and tested for tensile strength. The cementing medium was Silar composite alone or in combination with a conventional bonding agent or Scotchbond dental adhesive, or both. Results indicate that: Retention was greater when the posts were cemented with the Silar composite preceded with the application of Scotchbond. Retention was less with Silar composite alone or combined with a conventional bonding agent. Scotchbond is suggested for use as a bonding agent when cementing Dentatus posts with composites.

The bitewing roentgenogram and its diagnostic importance.

The role of the bitewing roentgenogram in dentistry is reviewed, including the roentgenographic techniques used, accessories for stabilisation of the film, and execution of the roentgenograph. Common errors in application of the technique are listed. The literature on the bitewing roentgenogram is surveyed and the conclusion stated that this roentgenographic technique is a diagnostic instrument that has no substitute for the purpose of detecting incipient interproximal carious lesions and periodontal diseases in the early stages of affecting the alveolar bone. No dental examination can provide complete diagnosis without bitewing roentgenograms.
